If you replace the pickup cartridge on a Tefifon (like here) you might find that the tracking force is too high. The adjustment range of the original mount for the spring/dampener-combination is limited:
So I designed a 3d printed replacement part to allow lower tension of the spring:
First tests on the device were promising:
Printing
Because it is a very thin part, I have printed the holder using Prusa's PC-blend filament in 0.3mm layer height. But I guess it might also work in PETG.
Design and Source Code
The mount has been designed using OpenSCAD. I have provided the source code for download, so you can adjust the design to your needs.
Happy printing!
