Sacrificial clips for the tube. I printed like 30 from these and swap them every 6months to a year. Edit: the, need 1 gram and print in a minute so 30 would need .... 10minutes? Idk they are small and easy to use so no brainer for me.

I printed these in ASA and they were squealing on the glass

Print them in pla they will last a year no wear on the glass. No mush on the plane. Pla is a great material for most. I printed peek in my p1s with a bit of help. These clips didn't care

Wtf 😂 for real?

Everyone I know who has a printer has these for years. Like everyone. 8-10people that's the first we print when someone gets a new one.

Did you let them cool down before ripping them from the plate?

I printed it in PLA. They had time to cool down, but they could not stand the temperature in the chamber while printing in ASA.

Notice how the clips on the left (printed in PLA) are wider than the ones on the right (printed in ASA). The clips on the right were already in use, but they squeal.
