Capricorn PTFE Tube

The Capricorn PTFE Tube is a high-quality polytetrafluoroethylene tube designed for 3D printers, particularly for filament guidance in FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) technology. Known for its low friction and high temperature resistance, it ensures smooth filament feeding and reduces the risk of clogging. The tube is often used in Bowden extruder setups, where the filament is pushed through a long tube to the hotend.

Lifespan: The expected lifespan of a Capricorn PTFE Tube can vary depending on usage and printing conditions, but it typically lasts for several months to a year in regular use. Over time, it may wear out or degrade due to high temperatures and friction.
