The Starlex DHB HSS+C nozzle 0.2 mm D3x24 is designed for maximum precision, enabling ultra-fine details, razor-sharp contours, and clean surfaces. It is ideal for models where fineness is more important than speed or material throughput.

The nozzle is made of hardened stainless steel with a nickel coating, making it particularly durable and wear-resistant. The 0.2 mm opening allows for extremely fine layer lines, but is not suitable for abrasive or fiber-reinforced materials.

Materials such as carbon fiber (CF), glass fiber (GF), metal, or glow-in-the-dark filaments can clog the fine opening or block the flow. For such filaments, 0.4 mm or larger is recommended.

Steel has a lower thermal conductivity than brass or copper – therefore, the nozzle requires a 5–10 °C higher temperature for the same flow rate. The copper sleeve, however, ensures stable and efficient thermal coupling to the hotend.

The internal geometry is CNC-machined to ensure exceptionally smooth filament guidance. This minimizes friction and is crucial for reliable printing at 0.2 mm.

For those who require the highest level of detail, the Starlex DHB HSS+C nozzle 0.2 mm D3x24 is an ideal upgrade. It offers precise extrusion, an extremely durable construction, and reliable print quality.

Important: Larger nozzle diameters should be used for abrasive or fiber-reinforced filaments.
