General:

As a composite manufacturing engineer, I have a lot of experience with vacuum ports. These are based on the design of the AirTech ports we use for expensive composite structures to pull vacuum. 

Why I designed this:

The first vacuum bags I ordered were the Sunlu ones with a hard backer under the vacuum port. These were temporarily unavailable when I needed new bags, and I was extremely disappointed in the flimsy vacuum port.

Printing recommendations:

Layer height: .2 or finer

Material: PLA or PETG

Supports: None

Infill: 15%

Walls: 2-3

Other Modifiers: Print with the ribbed surface down

Material Quantity: ≈10grams

I printed from PLA on Prusa XL at .15 layer height with 15% rectilinear infill.

Cautions, closing notes, and updates:

Orientation doesn't matter in use
