It’s got a 1.8mm, not 2mm, inner diameter. I used to regularly run into cheap filament that varied up close to 1.8mm in diameter that would get jammed in the tubing. When I did, tossing the roll was my only option. Capricorn is great for reducing filament backlash and printing flex, but requires very consistent filament. linkfedilink
