This style will work and there are a number of examples on ebay which ship to the UK within a week.  Hope this helps others in the future.

Hi yizhou.he. Yes! A da vinci Jr. Sorry, I should have specified that. The ones you've linked to look OK, but they're a month delivery to the UK. I may order some but if you or anyone knows of anything quicker I'd be very grateful. I'm in the middle of a project and not having the printer is killing me!

I think this one will work, the one you ordered is wired, the top hexagon part is too long and prevent it from getting inside .

I'm hoping you can help because I'm tearing my hair out here! I was printing the other day and the filament tube popped off at the extruder end. Bit of investigation later and it seems several of the teeth have broken off inside. No big. I'll order a new one thinks I. After a painful week long wait for delivery, it arrived today, and it doesn't fit! The screw part is too short to engage the nut. Trouble is, looking at ALL the other options on ebay or amazon, I cant find anything else which looks any longer! Does anyone know where I could possibly get a replacement as soon as possible? It's an M5 4mm push fit connector if it helps. In the attached pic, the original is on the top and the new is on the bottom.

Many thanks,
