0.2mm Nozzle - Optimal Print Fineness
Smaller diameter extrudes thin filaments
High resolution on the horizontal print surface
0.6mm and 0.8mm Nozzle - Faster Print Speed
Larger diameter extrudes more filaments per second, resulting in faster print speed

[*Note]
- Filaments with carbon fiber, glass fiber, metal, or other inorganic particles are prone to clog a 0.2 mm nozzle.
- For filaments containing carbon fiber or glass fiber, it is highly recommended to use a hardened steel 0.6 mm nozzle to minimize the risk of clogging and abrasion.
- Bambu PLA-CF and Bambu PETG-CF have been extensively tested and proven to have a low risk of clogging when printed with a hardened steel 0.4 mm nozzle, while also achieving higher print quality.
