# What filaments can Anycubic Kobra printers handle?

Anycubic's Kobra 3 Max quick start lists a nozzle maximum of 300 °C (572 °F) and a bed maximum of 90 °C (194 °F), and the Kobra 3 Max V2 store page lists the same two ceilings. The V2 page names PLA, PETG, and TPU as the filaments it supports, and it says PA and PC are not recommended. Other Kobra model names have no nozzle or bed maximum recorded in this printer list.

Match the filament line on the Anycubic page for the Kobra you have. This catalog has two of them. [Creality K1 and Ender-3 V3](/answers/k1_filament), [the original Ender-3](/answers/ender_filament), and [the Bambu A1](/answers/a1_filament) are different printers.
## Kobra 3 Max

The [quick start](https://wiki.anycubic.com/en/fdm-3d-printer/kobra-3-max/quick-start-guide), recorded on the [Kobra 3 Max printer page](/printer/anycubic-kobra-3-max) and verified 14 October 2026, lists a maximum nozzle temperature of 300 °C (572 °F) and a maximum heatbed temperature of 90 °C (194 °F). The Combo includes the ACE Pro. The [FAQ](https://wiki.anycubic.com/en/fdm-3d-printer/kobra-3-max/faq) recommends setting up a warm chamber for ABS, so the stock printer is recorded as open. Nozzle alloy and drive type are not stated on that record.
## Kobra 3 Max V2

The [V2 Combo page](https://store.anycubic.com/products/kobra-3-max-v2-combo-3d-printer), recorded on the [V2 printer page](/printer/anycubic-kobra-3-max-v2) and verified 19 October 2026, lists a hardened steel nozzle at a maximum of 300 °C (572 °F) and a hotbed maximum of 90 °C (194 °F). Supporting filaments are PLA, PETG, and TPU. The table says TPU 95A is not compatible with the ACE 2 Pro. The FAQ says the Combo prints PLA, PETG, and TPU (68D), and that printing with PA and PC is not recommended. The page does not state an enclosure. Recommended speed on that record is 300 mm/s and the maximum is 600 mm/s. Those speeds are Anycubic's printer figures, not a filament limit.

[Anycubic PLA](/brand/anycubic/pla-basic) stores 190–230 °C (374–446 °F) and a bed of 55–65 °C (131–149 °F). [Anycubic PETG](/brand/anycubic/petg) and [Anycubic TPU](/brand/anycubic/tpu) store no nozzle and no bed. Their drying figures, checked 18 October 2026, are 55–65 °C (131–149 °F) for 8 h for PETG and 70–80 °C (158–176 °F) for 12 h for TPU. Drying is not a print temperature.
## What the community says

[a Reddit thread in r/FixMyPrint](https://www.reddit.com/r/FixMyPrint/comments/1eaj04p/) says drying the filament, then preheating and retightening the nozzle and hotend, corrected the print they were looking at.

[a Reddit thread in r/FixMyPrint](https://www.reddit.com/r/FixMyPrint/comments/103icrh/) says the result looks like over-extrusion and points at calibrating e-steps and flow.

[a Reddit thread in r/FixMyPrint](https://www.reddit.com/r/FixMyPrint/comments/103icrh/) says that poster sliced in Cura with the nozzle at 225 °C (437 °F), the bed at 80 °C (176 °F), and the speed at 50 mm/s.
