Full Cable Clip Collection for Aluminium Profiles

thingiverse

Hi everyone, What is this? This is my take on cable clips for 40 I-type and 45 B-type aluminium profiles to allow a proper cable management around your aluminium profiles. See also this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YrF7Fl0mGY&t=95s). Why not taking one of the already posted solutions on Thingiverse? I was not happy with the other solutions on Thingiverse since they were always lacking one or more of the needed key features of a cable clip (see below). What makes these clips different? Key features: 1) Easy insertion of the cable(s) 2) Convinient attachment to the aluminium profile 3) Sufficient gripping strength but also easy detachment mechanism 4) Minimal footprint but also sufficient stability 5) Different versions depending on how many cables you have Will these fit my aluminium profiles and cables? These clips were designed for the very common 40 I-type and 45 B-type profiles. The clips will conveniently fit thin USB cables up to thick power supply cables. Why are there so many different versions? I tried to offer many possibilities to fulfill everyones needs. There is a complete set for the 40 I-type and 45 B-type series. Each set then has clips for up to 4mm or up to 7.5mm thick cables. Each catergory has 5 clips ranging from being able to hold 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 cables. Nomenclature: SeriesType_ClipType_HowManyCables_Diameter How do I print it? No supports needed. For me, the Click-Clips needed a brim to properly attach to the print bed. Very important: Please give me feedback in the comment section. I am still improving these clips if necessary. Best, Hoernle Changelog: Version 2: - Twist-Clips and Strong-Click-Clips were removed. Twist-Clips didnt fit properly and Strong-Click-Clips have no significant advantage anymore over the improved Click-Clips - Click-Clips were improved by making them less likely to pop off. The old version had sometimes gripping issues when many cables were inserted - A new full clip set was added for 45 B-type aluminium profiles - A new category of clips with a diameter of 4mm was added to accommodate thinner USB cables
