Check the Capricorn tubing I linked to, it has a larger inside diameter of 3.0mm that works beautifully for the Sovol SV08 Max. I am aware that Bambu doesn’t ship with Capricorn tubing, Capricorn designed this for the Bambu AMS as an upgrade. It’s in a kit along with a cutter for people to replace the tubing in the Bambu AMS unit. It has considerably less friction than the supplied tubing with the SV08 Max and it has been a successful upgrade for me. Capricorn make a huge range of different diameter tubing for different applications,. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.sovol3d.com/t/filament-feeder-failures/8708)._
