Description

When your AMS needs a longer bowden tube coming out of it and you don't want to pay $5 or wait for the fitting…

Requires external parts; I used the PC4-M10 fittings from this kit (since I had bags of them lying around) https://a.co/d/hR6Yt9G
but these should also work: https://a.co/d/6xxTgX9

(Wrench may be required to tighten fully, but if they don't tighten fully it won't really hurt anything)

 

The sections for the ptfeAND the filament are tapered because I had issues with other designs not being able to smush my curled up PTFE into the straight holes and the surfaces would get a bit janky because supports.

 

Printed at .2mm layer height with the input facing DOWN (because supportless woot)

Tolerances tested for BambuLab ptfe tubes since I was makin this for my ams; idk if other brands would work but I assume they probably would.

 

Recommend printing the version with arrows since this only works to feed filament through in ONE DIRECTION

Really nice, just a little note. Printed with the input facing down it is ok for the supports, but the first turn of the thread comes out wrong because evidently “it is floating”. But other than that everything is fine, once the connector is screwed in there is no problem.Printed with an old Anycubic i3 Mega s and Sunlu PLA+.

Fantastic Model well designed, fitting threads were perfect. PTFE tube mated perfect inside the piece and filament slides through easily. I printed @ 0.16 with 0.20 nozzle and slowed down the wall speed just to be safe with such small diameter. Used Bambu Basic PETG. THANK YOU!
