Air Conditioner Lineset Bracket

thingiverse

I found there were very few mounting options for air conditioner line sets. I installed a multi-zone mini-split and saw that it was typical to use plumbers strapping other devices that crush or tear the insulation. They aren't sized to cradle it correctly. Given that I create a few brackets around my needs which were single and double lineset mounting vertically to a wall, ceiling, and unistrut. I'm happy to modify these for anyone using the tipping features. Printing: I recommend using ASA when possible, especially if it's used in an outdoor application. Given this is a utility part using screws I recommend a very thick wall. I printed mine using a .6mm nozzle and 1.8mm shell. If using a .4mm a 1.6mm wall should be fine. I printed using a 50% infill and slow speeds. If using ASA, ABS settings should work fine, generally 250c and lots of buildplate adhesive. PLA is not recommended. The lines of AC units get hot and cold and PLA deforms easily at anything above room temperature and is overly brittle below. PET and CPE could also work well but care should be given when using screws and bolts.
