Description of ๐Ÿ Premium Capricorn Filament Extruder Fitting: Guaranteed Authenticity

Authentic Guaranteed: The Capricorn Premium XS Bowden Tubing is enhanced with a proprietary blend of high performance additives, it is well regarded as the highest quality PTFE tubing in all of 3D printing. Best Performance: Capricorn bowden tubing is designed specifically for 1.75mm filament with extremely precise inner & outer diameter, the filament is loaded smoothly to the hotend with as little room for error as possible between the extruder and the hotend. Advanced Material: Capricorn PTFE Tubing can resist higher temperature than any other tubing, which is perfect for printing exotic filaments such as ABS, Nylon, and Polycarbonate. This Capricorn XS tubing can keep working at high temperatures up to 260ยฐC. Perfect Package: Package comes with two PC4-M6 fitting for extruder and two PC4-M10 fitting for hotend, one PTFE tube cutter, which can cut flat on both sides to prevent any malfunctions or heat creep when feeding and retracting. Specifications: 1M Capricorn Bowden PTFE Tubing (1.95mm ยฑ 0.05mm inner diameter, 2mm outer diameter). Reduces the "wiggle room" or buckling, inside the tube, allowing you to print flexible filaments even on the longest Bowden systems.

Wall thickness is not constant

It works, but you need to find a place where the wall thickness is the same. These are cross section images of the tubing straight out of the box. I'm critical because they talk so much about its quality. Everything else seems to work fine. The fittings have small metal teeth to hold the hose securely in place. The cutter works surprisingly well.

Pros
  • 3D printer accessory

  • Damaged

Real Capricorn works great!

I just bought an Ender 5 Plus and the existing filament tube is missing. As a 3D printer, the standard tube does not have the heat resistance that the Capricorn tube can handle and will inevitably fail and bring you heartache. flat when inserted into the hot end. There were also two ports if you need them, as well as a bit of flair (cool Capricorn sticker). All in all a good buy and good insurance if you own a 3D printer.

Aftermarket Capricorn

Purchased as an upgrade to a stock Bowden tube. Worked well for several months, printing PLA at 212 degrees C. But over time it started to clog. I changed the thread, the temperature, I couldn't clean it. At about the same time another machine started to clog and was printing PETG at a speed of 240. Took apart both heaters/tubes and found that the tube had melted and was blocking the filament flow. A true Capricorn is designed for 300 degrees; does not melt at temperatures below 220ยฐC. Now that
