Big Round Bag Clip

thingiverse

This clip seals large bags with ease, keeping odor, humidity, and dryness locked inside. Flat clips bend around small bags but struggle with larger or thicker ones, so this round, rigid design relies on the bag's flexibility to seal it securely. It also works well for holding cables or hoses together in any application where a circular clip is needed. The clip opens and closes easily but can withstand significant force. To keep it secure, an extra loop of tape can be applied. The clip comes in various sizes: 24 mm, 28 mm, 32 mm, and 38 mm inner diameters (33, 37.5, 42, and 49 mm outer diameters). If you need custom diameters, simply scale up the nearest smaller model by the appropriate factor or scale down from a larger one if your printer allows it. Be aware that using this clip for anything other than its intended purpose is at your own risk. This design combines elements from MasterFX' bag clip and was printed on a FlashForge Creator Pro with rigid.ink ABS filament in silver color. To achieve the best results, print with 2 or more shells. The reduced tolerances of the hinge make it less sloppy but may require a finely tuned printer to produce perfect results. Supports are not necessary for printing, but enabling them will result in a 100% perfect clip. After printing, use a knife or screwdriver to pry the hinge loose if some strands of filament got inside. The hinge is quite sturdy and can withstand significant force. Updates include adding 28 mm and 38 mm models on April 21, 2019.
