Is there interest in doing a small review / listing about several available pushfits?
Pics of just 3 types, I have more…
What I’d like is one with a 4mm hole through the other side, so I can push the Bowden tube through into the cold end. Maybe I’ll go stick one in the lathe and see if I can make it so.
http://e3d-online.com/Mechanical/Bowden/Embedded-Bowden-Couplings-For-Metal-1.75mm-Filament are flat out amazing. During our tests these were the only ones that didn’t fail on a regular basis.
@Michael_Scholtz , the black ones in the second picture are like this. They are nearly exactly like the E3D-ones.
Kind of what I meant. I drilled it to 4mm no problem but the tube was a push fit, so tried for 4,2 and it was too much the thread broke off. I may get away with 4,1 if I can find a drill bit that size.

This is one of the last ones you have there I also have some of the 1st ones you have those should work for what I’m thinking.
Where can I buy the black ones?
Black ones are available though E3D or their distributors.
@Daniel_Kruger Maybe try these here: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/2Pcs-Pneumatic-Fittings-PC4-M6-Bore-4-3mm-For-4mm-PTFE-Tube-connector-Coupler-Feed-inlet/32698432647.html?spm=2114.47010708.4.105.8WePNV

@Lukas_Muller Thanks but, all the ones that I have tried that look like that have the thin metal teeth that dig into the tube during a jam and make it impossible to pull the tube out.
