00:00Hey guys, if you've been searching for a conductive carbon-filled PTFE tube for 3D printers, I did the digging
00:05so you don't have to.
00:07Now, real quick, true carbon-loaded conductive PTFE is a specialty material, but for the tubes that keep your filament
00:13moving cleanly, these are the top 5 deals I found.
00:17They're affordable, well-rated, and actually used by thousands of makers.
00:22Let's get into it.
00:23First up is the PTFE tube 2.5mm x 4mm, 5m, made for Bamboo Lab X1, X1C, P1P, P1S, E1,
00:33E1 Mini, AMS, and AMS Lite.
00:36The best part?
00:37It comes with cutter connectors, so you're not fighting with old fittings or guessing the length.
00:43It's only $2.53, has over 4,400 sold, and a 4.9 rating.
00:49If you run a bamboo machine, this is a stupidly easy upgrade or backup, just cut, fit, and keep printing.
00:56Next, the Creality Capricorn Bowden PTFE Tubing XS Series in blue.
01:01This is the one to grab if you care about smooth retractions and less friction in a Bowden setup.
01:07It's a 1-meter tube with a quick fitting and a pneumatic push fitting for 1.75mm filament.
01:13Price is $7.48, it's sold almost 3,900 times, and sits at 4.7 stars.
01:21Yeah, it costs more than the generic stuff, but Capricorn XS has a reputation for consistent inner diameter, and that
01:28can mean cleaner prints.
01:30Third is the 1, 2, or 4-meter Bowden Extruder PTFE Tube for J-Head, Ender 3, Bamboo Lab P1P,
01:37AMS, E1 Mini, and other 1.75mm setups.
01:41You can pick your inner diameter, 2 or 2.5mm, and it's 4mm outer diameter.
01:48The best feature here is flexibility, multiple lengths and IDs, so you can fit a bunch of different printers.
01:54At just $2.31, with 3,600 plus sold and a 4.8 rating, it's a killer budget spare.
02:02If you like having extra tubing on hand, this is the one.
02:06Number 4 is the UltraSmooth PTFE Tube for 1.75mm filament, with a cutter, 2.5mm ID x 4mm OD,
02:15made for Bamboo Lab A1, P1P, P1S, and X1C.
02:19The selling point is right in the name UltraSmooth Bore means less drag on the filament, which is exactly what
02:25you want if you're chasing clean extrusion.
02:27It's $2.53, sold over 2,500 times, and has a 4.9 rating.
02:34For the same kind of money as a coffee, you get a smoother filament path and a cutter to make
02:39install easy.
02:40Last but not least, the Creality PTFE Tube Bowden Tubing Replacement Kit for 1.75mm filament.
02:48This one fits K1, Ender 3, Ender 3 Pro, Ender 5, Ender 5 Pro, CR10, CR10S, and more.
02:55The best feature is that it's a proper replacement kit from a brand you already know, so you're not gambling
03:01on no-name tubing.
03:03It's $3.44, sold around 1,400 times, and rated 4.9 stars.
03:09If you've got a Creality Printer that's due for a tune-up, this is cheap insurance against clogging and inconsistent
03:15extrusion.
