This is one of three options I've made available for Bowden PTFE Coupler C-Clip for the Adventurer (AD5M) Runout Sensor. Kudos & thanks to Vance Howard for the suggestion.

OPTION 3 of 3 — TETHER to TUBE edition — Prints in TPU. Easier to use (more to grab) plus won't fly off & get lost, because it tethers to the PTFE tube.

TPU. Print as oriented. I used 0.2 mm layer height on 0.4 mm nozzle. Enjoy.

I used digital calipers to measure and recreate the C-Clip used on both sides of the runout sensor on the Flashforge AD5M because one of mine got sucked into a clip-eating black hole. 

Then I went above and beyond and made two more options for it.  Speaking of the other two options… see below.

  • The 1st option is a clone of the stock factory clip - CLICK HERE.
  • The 2nd option is this one with the extended handle -  CLICK HERE.
  • The 3rd option is a TPU print that tethers to the PTFE tube -  THIS LISTING.
