Electric Fence Insulator PIP

thingiverse

I got tired of buying electric fence insulators and never really liked the designs. This is a print in place piece. The threads print well and should break apart easily. The pin across the top has a stop so it doesn’t pull all the way out but moves so the wire can be placed in the slot then pinned in place. Should fit most fiberglass and metal electric fence posts. I printed it in PLA and have some out on the fences to test weather resistance. 10-20% infill works well. I will also be trying these in PETG soon, I used custom supports in CURA for the handle on the pin but it will print without any supports you just lose some of the base of the pin.
