Brass — Best thermal conductivity, fast heating, most versatile. Use for all standard filaments.
Stainless Steel — Food-safe and corrosion resistant. Slightly lower thermal conductivity — may need higher temps. Good for food-contact prints.
Hardened Steel — Required for abrasive filaments (carbon fibre, glow-in-the-dark, metal-fill). Brass wears rapidly with these — hardened steel is the correct choice.

Common Questions
What makes these "MK8 variant" nozzles different from standard MK8?
These nozzles have a wider 8mm hex head compared to the standard 6mm found on most modern MK8 nozzles. The thread and fitment are fully MK8 compatible — the wider head just requires a different spanner size (8mm vs 6mm) for installation. Functionally, they print identically.
How do I swap the nozzle safely?
Always change nozzles while the hotend is hot (around 200–230°C). Hold the heater block firmly, unscrew the old nozzle, and install the new one. Tighten snugly while hot — over-tightening cold can crack the heater block.
Do these support 3mm filament?
Yes — unlike many modern nozzles which are 1.75mm only, these are compatible with both 1.75mm and 3mm filament, making them useful for older printer setups running 3mm.
