PTFE tube holder for 13mm tube

thingiverse

I designed a holder for 4mm OD PTFE filament tube that attaches securely to 13mm cable tubes. The prototype has been completed, but it remains untested due to the current inoperability of my printers at this time. Here's how I built the design using Fusion 360: First, I created a model of the PTFE tube and set its dimensions to match the actual product specifications. Next, I designed a clamp that would fit snugly over the cable tubes, allowing for easy attachment and removal of the filament holder. The clamp was then positioned around the PTFE tube, creating a secure grip that prevents movement or slippage. To ensure stability and balance, I added supports to the design, which are strategically placed to distribute weight evenly across the holder. These supports also help maintain the structural integrity of the holder during printing.
