What the Micro Swiss M2 MK8 nozzle does

The Micro Swiss M2 Hardened High Speed Steel Nozzle is a 0.4mm MK8 nozzle built for high-temperature 3D printing, better wear resistance, and improved non-stick performance. The nozzle is designed to keep its hardness even at operating temperatures up to 450°C.

Key features of the M2 hardened steel nozzle

  • M2 high speed steel construction for high-temperature performance and abrasion resistance
  • Hardened and tempered to 68 HRC to resist wear during regular and demanding printing use
  • Electroless Nickel Plating for added surface protection
  • WS2 coating to support superior non-stick properties
  • Operates up to 450°C without losing hardness

Where this MK8 0.4mm nozzle fits best

This MK8 nozzle is suited to users who need a more durable nozzle for abrasive materials, higher printing temperatures, or reduced material build-up on the nozzle surface. The 0.4mm size makes it a practical choice for general-purpose printing where a standard nozzle diameter is preferred.

The hardened M2 steel design also makes this nozzle a strong fit for makers and print users running CR10, Ender, Tornado, or MakerBot-style systems that use the MK8 format and need a nozzle built for tougher printing conditions.

FAQ

Frequently asked

What is this nozzle made from?

This nozzle is machined from M2 high speed steel. The nozzle is then hardened and tempered to 68 HRC.

Is this nozzle suitable for abrasive filaments?

Yes. The M2 construction is designed for abrasion resistance, which makes the nozzle suitable for materials that wear softer nozzles more quickly.

How hot can the Micro Swiss M2 nozzle print?

The Micro Swiss M2 nozzle can operate up to 450°C without losing hardness. That temperature rating is a core part of its high-temperature design.

Does the nozzle have a non-stick surface?

Yes. The nozzle is described as having superior non-stick properties, supported by Electroless Nickel Plating and a WS2 coating.

What hardness is the Micro Swiss M2 hardened nozzle?

The nozzle is hardened and tempered to 68 HRC. That hardness helps the nozzle resist wear during demanding printing use.

Is this a 0.4mm MK8 nozzle?

Yes. This product is a 0.4mm nozzle in the MK8 format.

Which printers is this MK8 nozzle listed for?

The product title lists CR10, Ender, Tornado, and MakerBot compatibility. The printer must use an MK8 nozzle format.

Why use an M2 high speed steel nozzle for high-temperature 3D printing?

An M2 high speed steel nozzle is designed to maintain hardness at elevated temperatures while also offering abrasion resistance. This combination helps when printing hotter materials or more demanding filaments.
