M6x1 PTFE Coupler

prusaprinters

<p>This is a PTFE adapter coupler, with and without a filament guide.</p> <p>After upgrading my Anet A8 to a E3D with Bowden style extruder, I had issues loading the filament due to void between extruder feeders and where the PTFE adapter screwed into the extruder. Also, I wanted to print flexible filaments and with the large gap, it promoted jamming.</p> <p>On a secondary note, I wanted to design some threads, both internal and external</p> <p>AnetA8_M6_PTFE_Coupler_Guide.stl is a fully parametric filament guide that allows the PTFE adapter to screw into it. You may have to drill out the I.D. of the filament guide post printing.</p> <p>If you have reservations of a printed filament guide, you can use the other option.</p> <p>AnetA8_M6_PTFE_Coupler.stl would use the standard Anet M6 throat and nut and it couples to the PTFE adapter.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Anet A8</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.1mm or lower</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>100%</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> 3D Solutech PLA </p></p> Category: 3D Printer Extruders
