1/4" loc-line flexible LED light - 2040 NPT mount

thingiverse

The setup consists of a 40mm wide 1/4" NPT mount paired with a 1/4" loc-line lamp, specifically designed for two 100mm strips of 10mm wide LED strip lighting. This requires a total of two pieces of loc line and a 1/4" NPT adapter, which can be purchased in a kit for approximately $8. M3 screws are necessary for securing the NPT mount. The strip holder lacks a central hole due to its design, as it was printed standing upright with the loc-line facing upwards. This prevents bridging during the printing process. To accommodate wiring, I simply drilled out the middle section afterwards. Assembly can be challenging if using PLA, but PETG is recommended for ease of use. Loc-line pliers make the process much simpler. Alternatively, you can print the holder slightly oversized or soften it with a heat gun and apply CA glue to the cup. This won't cause adhesion to the loc-line, but will instead tighten the fitting once secured in place.
