Description
This adapter is for the E3Dv6 clones coming out of China that have a M10x1.0 threaded hole where the bowden tube enters the hotend.
I had been using a standard tubing fitting with a tapered pipe thread that kind of fit and seemed to work, but I never liked the fit. I also didn't like the tall, heavy metal fitting making the E3Dv6 hot end taller than it already is.
There is a Chinese supplier that makes clones that have the E3Dv6 style bowden tube fitting with the clip and all (see the link below). I've got some on order, but I wanted to make the parts I already have work nicely too.
This adapter makes use of a tube fitting that is intended to be pressed into a plastic body. You can get them at the link below.
I also threw in a matching clip since I ordered the wrong size for my parts and needed my own supply line.
