Cover for Point PRO55GR vacuum cleaner hose bleed valve

thingiverse

Replacement bleed valve for Point PRO55GR vacuum cleaner hose. These have a tendency of falling off, and replacement parts are not available AFAIK. For good seal, it is important that the inside is smooth. For strength, this thing should be printed solid in a good material. I used ASA+. The measurement across is critical for holding it firmly in place. The cover should snap in place. The parameter to tune is slot_d, or the thing can be scaled. This item is best printed standing up, as shown, with supports. This also makes the tabs strong. The valve may fit other types of vacuum cleaner hoses, especially with some fine tuning of the parameters.
