Paintball tank plug

thingiverse

This threaded plug will fit in paintball airtanks when their regulator is removed. The first design is for taking your tanks to get hydro'd or generally using as handle. The V2 is for placing in a tank that you've sold so you can ship in confidence and know nothing will get inside the tank or mess up the threads. V3 is beefed up to be as good as 1 and 2 combined, should never snap on you like 1 might if you rotate with too much friction. Most useful for running a string thru and hanging (like a dead tank windchime). The reg thread protector is for the bottom threads on the reg once uninstalled (for shipping or storage). Lots of top thread protectors already out there, you won't find another from me. *Update* all files updated with slightly smaller threads to reduce friction going into the tank threads. This should cut down on V1 snapped tank plug rings. I printed this in petg and it fit perfectly. If you print in a different material, check the fit of the thread prior to threading all the way in. If there's a lot of friction, maybe scale down a percent and try again. Just don't break off the plug in your tank or you'll be sad. I printed mine at .2 quality, 80% infil. No supports or adhesion needed.
