Inconsistent diameter

Pros: Good price when compared to Ninjaflex.

Cons: I would have the filament stop feeding, with my idler turning but the filament not moving. My extruder can handle fluctuations in diameter, but not quite to the degree of this filament. I pulled out my calipers and at some points it dipped all the way down to 1.5mm. With it being flexible filament if I then compressed it at all (and generally filament does get compressed into the gear in order to be driven through your extruder) it dipped even lower than that which my extruder just couldn't handle.

In my opinion the superior price is really only useful if you have an extruder that can handle filament that is far under 1.75mm. I'm not sure if they take returns on filament, but you may want to hold on to the box longer than I did and make sure it works with your extruder before tossing the box. Usually the biggest with flexible is having it buckle or loop around your gear wheel, but for me the biggest problem with this particular spool has been the small diameter so when it hits one of the smaller sections the filament ends up just sitting there with the gear spinning. If I had kept the box to ship it back in I would probably even try to do a return despite the better price than other flexibles - it's significantly harder to print with than flexibles with larger diameters.

I have attached a Youtube video of a segment of the spool that I cut off, as you can see my calipers measured 1.51mm - with pressure that dips all the way down to 1.3mm which is simply too thin for any bearing based extruder. (spring tensioned might be able to use it still)

Hello Eric,

Thank you for your review on PID 12303 and for providing the video. I will submit a complaint regarding the fluctuating diameter along with the so our product team can look into this matter further. Your time and feedback is truly appreciated! If I may ask, approximately how much filament out of the spool have you used thus far? I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and thank you in advance!

Very little filament is used - mostly just where I would cut a little off and try again hoping to find a section closer to 1.75mm. I've been trying to redesign my existing extruder and print out a replacement that can handle the smaller diameter of this filament - and after ~100mm feeds through (4 inches) I sometimes have to cut it off and try again further down the spool.

Got it. If you would like, I can assist you in setting up an RMA for a replacement spool. Once the RMA is set, our returns department will email you with a return shipping label to send the defective one back to us. You would not need to send it back in the original packaging, any box will work. Once we receive the filament, we would then send a new spool out to you. Please let me know if you would like to proceed and I can get that started right away. My apologies for the trouble and thank you for your patience throughout this issue.
