Where to Buy 0.8mm Nozzle for UM1

[kas 0]

Can anyone suggest a source (preferably in the US) for buying 0.6mm or 0.8mm nozzles for UM1? Thanks.

It's very easy to drill the nozzle out to 0.8mm yourself; drill bits are cheaply available on Amazon, and the nozzles are relatively soft metal.

This guy sells all sizes including .8:

These are under $2 each from china (be patient it doesn't take all that long - usually under 2 weeks - sometimes a month):

They aren't .8mm but you can drill them out.

Thank you for the advice. I have ordered 0.8mm drill bits, and will try modifying a nozzle myself. I'll post an update here.

as far as I remember these are a drop in replacement for the existing ultimaker .4mm nozzle.

For UMO, yes. But UM2 needs custom nozzles. Make sure to get the 3mm filament version of the filastruder nozzles and not the 1.75mm version.

Is this place still a good place to get 3mm nozzles for Ultimaker 2?

The biggest useful nozzle is 1.0mm

The plastic needs to heat.

You can get nozzles in various sizes at 3dSolex.
