1" EMT is the steel tube of choice for US-based builds of the amazing V1 Engineering LowRider v4 DIY CNC. For LR4 makers outside the US, supported tubing sizes include 30mm and 32mm outside diameter. For using this print with those sizes, scale it in your slicer. 

  • For 30mm OD tubing, try scaling this print at 101.69%. 
  • For 32mm OD tubing, try scaling this print at 108.47%   

I tested this end cap in 1" EMT, both "no bur" (factory cut), and de-burred after cutting it with a tubing cutter, which was more of a "blunted bur" than none, because the deburring tool does not get it all without a lot of effort.

It fit snug and removable from the EMT with no bur, and tight and difficult to remove from the EMT that had a blunt bur, but it worked in both.

Printing tips

  • Print as oriented.
  • PLA
  • No supports needed.
  • Prints faster and stronger if you increase the number of perimeter walls until it prints solid
