Yellowjacket Strain Relief

Post by Dionysus480 »

Hi all,

I just rebuilt the hotend and added a yellowjacket. I really need to practice crimping tiny things... ;-)

Anyway - I noticed the stress on the cable seems to be right at the molex connector. When I home, it seems to bend quite a bit. I've put 2 heat shrink over the area, although even it tends to pull off the connector itself.

Does anyone have a strain relief solution they like?

Thanks

The clip I found on this forum is the one I use and it's very light and I can pull on the cable + all three carriages without it coming off.
