Review on πŸ”§ Enhanced Pneumatic Filament for Capricorn - Genuine Upgrade by Jim Shirodkar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

After this simple update

This is a very simple upgrade for your printer. Capricorn PTFE hoses are very easy to retrofit and this kit includes all the parts required. The tube is really slippery, much better than stock. The nibs weren't the easy part, and that's really only because the printer got in the way. A little work and you're done. Now I'm going to use Capricorn PTFE.

Pros
  • the thread flows MUCH smoother. The Creality CR-10 springs included in this kit are much stronger than the stock Ender-3 springs and should provide a firmer build surface that can nullify residual movement from rapid Y-axis direction changes. These nibs should also hold level longer than the standard Ender 3 nibs that come with the printer. These springs are a few mm longer, so the Z-axis end stop may need to be raised slightly depending on the mounting location.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
