Bolt and nut M8 × 30: preview of the model

Bolt and nut M8 × 30

3D printing2 partsNo supports

A printed M8 bolt with hex head and 30 mm of thread, plus a matching nut, both with the ISO metric profile. The pair suits jigs, prototypes and light fixings, and places where metal would rust or scratch – printed bolts are weaker than steel ones, so tighten them gently. Use it to find the right clearance for your printer: if the nut binds, increase it in the generator, if it wobbles, reduce it; the value is a good start for other sizes too.

Tip: Print as shown: bolt standing on its head, nut lying flat, no supports needed. A layer height of 0.12–0.16 mm makes the thread cleaner. Printed bolts break more easily than metal ones – don't tighten them hard.

Estimated by our slicer-like calculation for a 0.4 mm nozzle. Your slicer may show slightly different values.
