Micro Swiss MK8 Plated M2 Hardened High Speed Steel Nozzle (.4mm)

Worked for a day. I used petg and after that it went down hill. Everything would get stuck to the side of the nozzle and nothing would stick to the bed. I switched back to the cheap nozzle and all my problems where gone. I did everything to get it to work.

Works flawlessly. Wish I upgraded to .6mm nozzle sooner! Running Ender 5 Plus with Bowden Drive, Micro Swiss Hot End with this nozzle. The quality is great & improved print time.

This nozzle gave me print issues. Switch back to the nozzle that came with the MicroSwft hot end and everything was back to normal. Just couldnt seem to get it to quit jamming up ( I tested several temps) maybe it was just the one I got but Im not sure that is use this again... The stock microswiss one seems to be a pretty good one but not this one.

Bought these when I decided to print some stuff using shine in the dark filament, but I wasnt expecting any real improvement in print quality. But these things are in a complete different league than regular brass nozzles. No clogging (knock on wood) and handle everything you can throw at them. I increased the printing temperature a bit, but Im not sure its really necessary in my case.

I wanted to print some large parts (about 1.2kg total), with no detailed features, in carbon fiber PLA, as fast as possible. I used this nozzle with a 0.4mm layer height, 0.8mm width and the results were good. No noticeable wear and tear on the nozzle. I normally run PLA at 200c with 0.4mm brass nozzles, but had to bump it up to 230c, and drop the print speed to about 25mm/s (overall print time is still way shorter than a 0.4mm nozzle at 60mm/s). If you do the math, 25mm/s at 0.8mm is about the max a normal V6 heater block can melt. If you want to go faster, youll need a higher power heater. Great nozzle.

Printing: CF PETG (260) PETG (245) and TPU (230) Smooth reliable prints. Expensive for just one nozzle but it is doing the job on my Micro Swiss Direct Drive. Extremely pleased how well it prints Atomic Filament Carbon Fiber PETG Extreme Pro (NOT shown in image). Yes I would recommend. Just wish the price was a little better.

Installed easily and makes my GF nylon prints turn out super good without the worry of excessive nozzle wear.

Working good on my Neptune 3 pro.

I have not printed enough filament to tell if these outlast other nozzles when printing abrasive filaments, but these (I bough the 0.6 and 0.4mm versions) are amazing. Not a single clog since I installed them, even when swapping between very dissimilar materials (temperature-wise). The exterior can be cleaned very easily as well. Excellent product.

The bar for Mk8 nozzles has been set. Its been a few months since I started using this nozzle. The coating is emaculate and the pictures do not do it justice. I literally did not need to adjust any settings to get this nozzle to work. I got well over 1000 hours on my A2 nozzle. I expect this to exceed that considerably. PLA and ABS flow great. If you have a Mk8 work horse like I do, this just adds to the consistency and reliability. Yes, its worth the money. The Chinese clones still dont make M2 with a coating. This is the benchmark. This is the gold standard. You will be hard pressed to find a Chinese clone that can match the manufacturing quality of this. If there exists one, I havent seen it.
