PTFE Perfect Curve Clip Guide

Version 1

An optimized solution to high degradation of filament tube due to small radius corners caused by interference with the cable chain. It works best when used with a https://makerworld.com/en/models/84267#profileId-90066 or any 90-degree elbow attachment.

This solution will let the filament go through the tube using the biggest radius possible without being flexed by the cable chain.

Version 2

Adjusted clip dimensions to improve grip to the chainlink. Please print with PETG, so the clip does not deform and get loose.

printed fine but using your setting but its super loose and slides around when moving

Hello ondrovic. I'm sorry to hear that. My tested model fits tight and does not move at all. Maybe the PLA was deformed when it was bent to be installed on the chain link.

@ondrovic

Replying to @f1dude :

I printed in PETG just as an FYI, tbh I haven't had much luck with even the cable clips that use the style of attachment.

Replying to @ondrovic :

Those mods are pointless. What the PTFE tube requires is natural position which is solved with the use of a glass riser. Extruders are feed from the top, not on a 45 degree angle.

@Guardian_of_nit

when printed with ASA was loose for me as well

Thank for you feedback @Guardian_of_nit. Would you be so kind as to measure the width of your chainlink? Mine is 9.3 mm wide. I've been trying to figure out why the clips are loose for some users. I have a suspicion that there might be different sizes of chainlinks out there.

@Guardian_of_nit

after a while would get loose and move down the chain easily
