60mm to 30mm Fan Mount Adapter

thingiverse

I struggled to design a sturdy fan mount for my E3D V6 clone that stayed securely attached to the heat barrel, so I decided to create two adapters that attach directly to the stock 30mm fan mounts, specifically designed for 60mm fans. The PLA fan mount features an additional vent for PLA printing or any material requiring immediate cooling, while the ABS mount only vents to the heat spreader. The adapter attaches with just two screws and I used a little kapton tape to seal any remaining gap between the mount and adapter. The ABS one can likely be printed on its bottom flat side, though I printed both versions with the fan hole facing down. As long as you print them slowly, they should print fine. I printed both versions in ABS, but there's no problem using PLA. Print Settings: Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 10%
