2nd design (easy clip on) variant. See also first variant (locking ring/cable tie): https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6541118
Compact and neat Bowden Tube Clamp upgrade (for E-stepper end connector). Neat alternative to large clunky clamps. Tested on my Ender 3 Pro. Works really well and is very strong so it should last a long time .
Designed to fix the common problem of PTFE Bowden tube moving in the connector (which was not originally designed for 3D printing) - causing unwanted stringing and other issues. The clamp also provides useful strain relief where the tube enters the connector.
Simple push on design. When fitting align the integrated locking clip with locking clip slot on connector rear (remove existing locking clip). Push on gently. Barrel includes two rows of "teeth" for good grip of PTFE tube.
Only needs around 15 mins print time and 1 gram of material. I used grey PLA+. Use 100% infill setting with supports enabled.
Update 23/3/24: added also short/basic version. V2 versions have increased wrap around and tighter fit to connector barrel.
