tube clip

thingiverse

This is my version of tube clip for 5mm rimless tank. Please don't ask why not just buy from amazon or etsy, not a fan of such. I have provided here 7mm and 9mm clip good to hold 6-10mm flexible tubes for either your aerator, CO2 supply or mini filter system. A set of connector is provided as well ranging from 20mm to 50mm so you can connect 2 clips together. See the image for some visual details. The clips has top and bottom side. The side chamfered by 60 degrees should be on the print bed side, the other 45 degrees should be the top. If you can print the other way around, go ahead I won't stop you haha. Most of my designs have 60 degrees 0.5mm chamfer at the bottom side to reduce the "elephant foot" effect or whatever you name it and it is smoother to touch. The tube position has offset of 22mm and 31mm from the nearest glass surface to tube center diameter - more or less. Material I used is ABS, as usual, and always. If you have specific tube size to use, glass surface offset, and/or glass thickness, don't hesistate to contact me here. I would be happy to design something to help you. I just can't send parts or sell them for my personal reasons. If you find my design useful and happy about it, I would appreciate a cup of coffee.
