3/8" Hose Y and F connectors

thingiverse

I required a custom Y connector for a fountain pump assembly. The package includes a 45-degree Y configuration with and without an elbow attachment, as well as an F adapter - both with and without barbs - designed for situations where the two outlets need to be in parallel alignment. All connectors are engineered specifically for use with 3/8-inch inner diameter tubing or hose.\r\nAdditionally, I included a 1/2-inch NPT adapter featuring a hole that fits snugly over the aforementioned connectors. Some fountain pumps have this type of threading on their outlets, making it a useful component to include in the package.\r\nThese components should be printed in the orientation depicted for maximum structural integrity. No supports are required during the printing process!\r\nI printed my assembly using PETG material, which provides strength and water/weather resistance. The print settings consisted of 0.15 layers with an infill percentage of at least 50%. For better adhesion to the blue tape used as a base, I applied glue stick before initiating the printing process.
