Description
This PTFE Tube Guard protects the print head tube from dragging on the top glass causing premature wear. It is extremely light and the point creates very little drag on the glass.
Note:
- This item is very small and glue on print bed is required to achieve a successful print.
- For a successful print I recommend the use one of my Print Profiles with the specified filament.
- This snaps on the PTFE Tube. Locate it where the tube hits the glass and verify this location by moving the print head across both X and Y range.
- The point of the guard is designed to touch the glass. This point is designed to present minimal resistance.
- If you find it rotating you can use glue to secure it to the PTFE tube.

I had issues with the piece being too small and not sticking. I added a brim and it worked out well.
overall it seems like it holds onto the tube a lot weaker than at first, so the spike doesn't always point up.
I think I might try this again in ABS.

Used with a properly prepared Bambu Lab PEI Textured Plate with glue stick you don't need a brim. As mentioned in the description you can use glue to secure it to the PTFE Tube if needed to keep it oriented correctly. Make sure to check out my other models and Bambu Printer Accessories. More to come so LIKE and FOLLOW to get updates. Thanks again!

I did try it on the textured bed with some glue, but didn't have any luck.

A properly prepared Bambu Lab PEI Textured plate (new version of their PEI plate) means, it was cleaned (I use Dawn Powerwash) to remove all previous glue and residues, then dried and cleaned with IPA alcohol. I have printed hundreds of these using this method and my the print profiles I created and never had to use a brim. So, either you're not using the same plate, or it's not prepared correctly, or your not applying the glue correctly, or settings are changed, or you're filament is not completely dry. But, I'm glad you were able to get a good print with a brim.

Quick print, obviously, works as expected, I can now hear the click when the PTFE hits the glass .

Perfect fit, clicked right on and fits snug.
Noticed the tube running against the glass the other day, still looked good, but better safe than sorry 😊
Thanks!

Added these just in case, not sure if they were really needed with the clips or not, time will tell, well worth the 2 cents
