> 24 hourIs Capricorn tubing works excellent just like everyone probably says fastest and easiest upgrade for your 3D projects

> 24 hourTubbing is supposed to be for 1.75mm filament, but created high amount of friction when filament inserted. Too much force needed to feed filament through PTFE. Wrong size? Poor quality? Bad manufacturing?

> 24 hourEverything came as described in good condition. There is enough tubing included to for two separate printers (Ender 3 pro), with a little length to spare. I havent installed it on my printer yet, but plan to when the stock tubing starts to wear. Will update review if there are any issues I experience with this new tubing.

> 24 hourGreat upgrade and tube cutter is a must to get a clean cut and good deal at both ends of the tube.

> 24 hourIt seems like a ton of people in the 3D printing community recommend this tubing because of its tighter inner diameter spec leading to more consistent moments from the extruder. In theory, and when using filament that is exactly 1.75 mm or less throughout the entire spool, this is very true. However, the vast majority of brands will have a variance that goes a little (or a lot) over that 1.75 mm spec at some point in the spool, which is almost guaranteed to cause a jam with this XS tubing. Even if there is only one spot on the entire 300 meter spool that is slightly out of spec, that is enough to cause friction in the tube and for it to cause a jam. At first, I refused to believe that the tubing was causing the issues and thought I might have an extruder issue. I thought maybe the extruder spring was a little too tight causing it to squish the filament while it pushed it into the tube, making it press against the inside of the tubing. So, I replaced the entire extruder assembly and tried many different springs. No change; my machines were still jamming on a daily basis. I tried many different filament brands from Overture, Hatchbox, eSun, Amolen, etc... and all would, given enough time, eventually cause jams on both of my printers with the tubing installed. I also bought some of this XS tubing for my coworker and he experienced the exact same issue. The issue has only gone away when I replaced the tubing on both of my printers with slightly less tight inner diameter spec of 2.0 mm instead of the 1.9 mm this tubing comes with. Ive been printing nearly non-stop now for four days and have yet to experience another jam. Before you disregard this review with, Well, Ill just make sure my filament is to the correct spec. Understand that, even with the filaments that would measure at or close to 1.75 mm in the first few meters I checked, there was no way I could check every mm of the entire 1 Kg spool. All it takes is one spot to be too far out of spec to cause friction in the tube, leading to your extruder forcing the filament through, causing more friction, resulting in your extruder gear crushing the filament to the point it will no longer move at all. Its a snowball effect of friction. Aside from the inner diameter spec being too tight (which is the whole point of this tubing), everything else was fine. The quality of the tubing was great, the consistency of the tubing itself appeared to be flawless, the cutting tool it came with worked well, and the couplers were a nice upgrade over stock. However, almost none of that matters when the 1.9 mm tube diameter shouldnt be used at all for printing if you care about printing reliability.
