Summary

I wanted a precision nozzle for my 3 Oz tube of Super Lube (part 21030.) The other nozzles I found didn't screw on perfectly (maybe I had print settings wrong?) they stripped out... and they weren't precision tips. So I made my own. My prints all screw on completely tight.

You'll find an .stl with a tiny 2mm diameter opening (pretty hard to force grease through), a small 3mm opening (a little easier), and a simple cap (in case you lose yours.)

Print notes:

  • I printed with a 0.4mm print head and 0.2mm layer height for accuracy in the threads.

  • My printer did not need supports, even though OrcaSlicer gave me a warning. There is a star-shaped manual support (see pic) included in the STL that you can easily pop out from the print.

  • You might watch the print in the middle area. This is where the "floating area" warnings apply, and bridging is required. It's ok if the print quality in this area is bad (as seen in my picture), as long as it doesn't fail.
