There is a little bit of wiggle, which causes the tube coupler to dig into the tube over time. I was never very happy with the amount of play allowed and designed a small push on cap to add a bit of extra support to the tube end, so it will hopefully last much longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFusion 360 file is included if you wish to make changes such as adjust tube diameter and tolerance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrint in the material of your choice. You may get better results with smaller layer heights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI printed this using Bambu Matte PLA at 0.08mm layer height using the 0.4mm nozzle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made to fit quite tight around the tube, so you may require a small round file or drill bit to remove the seam inside the hole to get it to fit right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair it with a bowden clip for extra security: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.printables.com\/model\/179548-ultimaker-style-bowden-clip\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.printables.com\/model\/179548-ultimaker-style-bowden-clip\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUpdate Oct 30\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original design came loose during a print. More of the guide features were used to better lock the cap to the tube guide on the print head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUpdate Oct 31\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdded a chamfer to make it easier to insert the tube. Also added a very small cut in the side of the hole for the slicer to put the seam (should not need to file the seam any more). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesign by khrillian on MakerWorld (license: BY).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mymadmanlab","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67400053784880,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0987\/0809\/5280\/files\/0_add9610f-e57f-496a-a55a-e6edbb6563d9.jpg?v=1784924444","url":"https:\/\/mymadmanlab.com\/products\/bambu-x1-bowden-tube-reinforcement-strain-relief","provider":"Mymadmanlab.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
