These upgrade parts will let you switch to 5mm Outside Diameter PTFE tubing. You will not be able to use the Filament sensors with this upgrade as 5mm PTFE tubing will not fit. After installation you must recalibrate all tool positions. Compatible with the Prusa XL Enclosure.

It is a good idea to do these upgrades at the same time as installing your Prusa XL enclosure as you have to take apart each extruder anyways to replace the PETG parts with CF-Polycarbonate. 

 

You will need 5mm PTFE connectors, I have verified that this listing has the correct size for the Prusa XL extruder:

You need to purchase the type PC5-M5 for the Extruder. 
You should drill out these Connectors to 2mm for a better fit. I recommend buying extras.  


If you would like to use the modular spool caddy, also buy PC5-1 connectors from the same listing:

The PC5-1 connectors do not require any modification.
