I made this to support some insulated pex I was running along the wall of my garage (not because it needs to be insulated but because exposure to UV light can eventually cause pex to fail).
The actual diameter of the insulation I was working with was 1-15/16" inches (pardon my US customary units and ugly fractions), or 49mm, but insulation is squishy so anything at least ¼" (6mm) smaller or larger should work.
This uses 4 zip ties to secure the pipe. It is usually easier to put the zip ties in the slots before mounting the bracket to the wall.
It worked OK. I think it would help if I had another half-shell on the top side of the pipe so the zip ties don't dig into the insulation.
Print in the default orientation--supports should not be required in most cases (if your printer is reasonable with bridging). I found 25% infill to be stiff enough.
