90 degree plumbing fitting. One end is barbed and fits a 3/16" (5mm) tubing. Other end is for a ¼"(6.5mm) hole and is an interference fit. Purpose is to drain.
Background: The tank in my hot water heater sprung a leak. Water was pouring over top of drip pan onto upstairs floor. I quickly drilled a hole in the drip pan, designed this fitting, and 3d printed it. Hammered it into drip pan, hooked up tubing and routed it to bucket downstairs. From start to finish done in an hour. Been about 2 weeks and still using hot water heater while I wait for the replacement to get here.
Printing: I printed with 0.6 nozzle and 0.1 layer and PETG. PETG has better layer adhesion than PLA, so thus better sealing.
Attached: 0.4 & 0.6 nozzle g code; 3d model file (solidworks), images, & stl
Hope someone else finds this and helps them out of bind like it did me.
