🌀 PTFE Tube Holder – Simple Anti-Tangle Solution for CFS Setups

After a few annoying tangles (and one near-disaster), I designed this straightforward solution to prevent the PTFE tube from getting caught on the spool holder—something that can put serious strain on your machine. This compact set of PLA tube clips is specially made for printers with a Creality Filament Sensor (CFS) setup.

💡 Design Concept:

This design focuses on ease, efficiency, and machine safety. It requires no supports when printing and is super easy to install—just snap it on the rail and go. It keeps the PTFE tube in place without limiting movement, avoiding any risk of pulling or tension on the extruder.

🔧 Features:

Three different clip versions, designed for different levels of grip:

Full-lock clip: Keeps the tube tightly secured, ideal for setups where the tube might move more.

Push-fit clip: Holds the tube firmly, but allows removal with slight force.

Slide-in clip: Easiest to install/remove—perfect for quick maintenance.

Material: PLA (strong, reliable, easy to print)

Print time (Creality CR):

Full set (3 clips): ⏱️ ~19 minutes

Single clip: ⏱️ ~9 minutes

No supports needed

Tool-free installation
