Description
I had a lot of troubles with the traditional PC4-M10 PC4-01 etc bowden connectors ever releasing my bowden tubes. which most people don't need to do so often so maybe this is not a problem at all. :)
Update: with appropriate tension these things appear to work well. I've only had the bowden pop out when I clogged a nozzle and when I had a print print to close to the bed. in both jams it basically acted as a pressure release valve.
Been trying this out. so far it works. but it has slipped out in testing. after getting a feel for appropriate tension it has been working.
in a pinch it will work until your order of a real part arrives.
another solution would be to just get these:
