Description

TPU end cap. Designed to fit PTFE tubes with 4mm outer diameter. The inside is tapered so the further it's pushed in the more friction is applied to hold it in place. Works well for me let me know if it works for you.

perfect

The small ring to hold it has perfect tightness. I'd wish though that the cap part would grab much sooner with the same tightness, with still the same lenght so that the filament can stick more than the ~5mm into the cap when tight as it is now. So you don't have to be as careful when putting it on. Otherwise great design!

I think I know what you're asking for, but I designed it the way it is to try to accommodate wide variances of the outer diameter, if I made it grab a little more shallower then it might not fit some PTFE tubes.
