4mm PTFE Tube Connector
Description
Heyho Here I have a PTFE Tube Connector for the standard 4 mm ones. I use them at my XL to connect my Teflon tubes from the dryboxes to the ones sticking out of the first Filament sensor. The features: A segmented inner area for a good force distribution/ clamping strength without deforming the tube 100% Scalability: 3 Prescaled Models: Soft Medium and Strong clamping force (1, 2 , 3 Dots) If you only want to change the clamping pressure just scale the X/Y Axis! If you just want to change the length without changing the clamping force just scale the Z Axis. Wider Ends to increase first layer adhesion and a better grip if you want to push them on the tube with a higher clamping force. Viewing window to check that the 2 hoses touch perfectly. Assembling: Just print 1 Holder and check if that one fits your PTFE tube perfectly. (Compensate for your PTFE Tube's tolerances) You can add a little chamfer on each Tube end but more important is to cut the ends off 90° as good as possible. If they fit correctly there will be no gap between the 2 Ends. Printing: I printed mine with PLA, 0,2mm layer Height & standard Infill. Seam set away from the window.
