Clearance – Capricorn XS Series PTFE Tubing 100mm
Brand:Capricorn
Capricorn XS series is made from virgin PTFE. This gives it extremely low friction and has a very high temperature resistance. The XS series is of a high precision needed for a 3D Printer. The internal diameter is 1.9mm +- 0.05mm. The 2.0mm internal diameter allows chunky or out of specification filament to be printed. Material filled filaments are a particular use case. The Capricorn XS series formula has added additives to make it the lowest friction PTFE tubing available today, the additives are what gives it the opaque color.
With a low friction tubing minimal extrusion force is wasted pushing/pulling the filament through the PTFE tube. The force of the extruder is getting where it needs to be, at the hotend.
As filament is pushed through a PTFE tube it will bend slightly, this makes filament behave very similar to a spring. If 1mm is pushed at the extruder end, not exactly 1mm will be re-produced at the hotend. A tight tolerance PTFE Tube like Capricorn XS, minimizes this effect. The XS formula also has a much higher temperature range, even greater than the TL series.
Bought in 100mm lengths, multiple quantities will be shipped as a continuous length.

Genuine tubing that came with a capricorn sticker. much cheaper than buying a set length from somewhere like ebay. would recommend.
Vito Cientanni (verified owner) –
Excellent low friction tubing for bowden type extruders on 3d printers. ensure you have a high quality pneumatic coupler to grip the surface of the tube.
Tony Humblestone (verified owner) –
Great price for this product, I ordered it for my Ender3 but found the the standard connectors did not grip the tube very well and caused my print to fail, I have ordered some better quality connectors which will cure this problem.
Not a fault with the tubing just the cheap connectors on the ender 3 extruder

Excellent. cut it too short and need some more though
Jim Fleming (verified owner) –
Works as expected. can now print tpu
Duane (verified owner) –
This is a better quality tubing than the stock 3d printer tubing. only issue is it is slightly softer than the stock so allows the press fitting to cut into it a lot faster.
Denis (verified owner) –
Top quality, still using after several months.
John Tobin (verified owner) –
The extruder on my ender 3 cracked so repairs were needed; everything is working well having fitted an all metal extruder and replacing the original tubing with capricon xs.
TIMothy (verified owner) –
Excellent tubing for use in 3d printers.

While not cheap the capricorn tubing makes a world of difference. even printing tpu with a longish bowden setup.
