Highlights of Various Nozzle Diameters
0.2mm Nozzle
Optimal Print Fineness
Extremely small layer gaps
More detailed on the vertical print surface
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
The 0.4mm nozzle is widely recognized as the standard nozzle diameter for modern 3D printers due to its optimal balance between print quality and print speed. This nozzle size is utilized in both the Bambu Lab X1 Series and P1P 3D printers.

[* 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.
Configuration of Bambu Hotend
If you need to swap your nozzle, you can either replace the Hotend with Nozzle on your original complete hotend assembly or replace the whole Complete Hotend Assembly.
