Bowden Tube Fitting Accessories

thingiverse

This small collection of items I've gathered may prove useful to some. The most striking item in this group is undoubtedly the compact knurl wrench designed specifically for Bowden tube fittings. Many of these fittings come with a 10mm hex head, often topped with a tiny plastic cap, making them easily accessible. Next up is the versatile tube extractor, which can double as a wrench but was originally intended to help dislodge stuck tubes from their fittings. By gently pressing down on the extractor, the tube should release, allowing it to be safely removed from the fitting. This mechanism also works in reverse when there's insufficient space to slide the extractor over the fitting. Last but not least is the simple yet effective tube joiner, ideal for situations where a longer tube is needed and only short pieces are available. By attaching fittings to both ends of these shorter tubes, you can create an extended tube that meets your requirements.
