Back Pack Blower Tube Nozzle Fix

thingiverse

This is a straightforward component for the working end of a Stihl backpack blower tube. Over time, this tube has worn down on my blower multiple times due to coming into contact with the ground while in use. I previously addressed this issue by attaching a portion of a soup can or similar item to the end using duct tape. These makeshift repairs have all eventually worn down as well, and the cans can be quite heavy. The primary cylinder slides over the nozzle's end, and the ring serves as a wear surface. The wear surface, also known as the wear ring, can be replaced whenever necessary, which avoids having to replace the entire cylinder. I created this part from PLA solely because it was available in my printer at the time of need. A more robust material would likely yield better results.
