This is a ¾ female GHT (Garden Hose) cap. You can use it to cap off a hose, bibb, or spigot. It will require a rubber washer like all GHT fittings that seal by washer rather than mating threads.
I used this to cap off a leaky hose bibb at my house. It's nice because if it freezes all I lose is a 3d printed cap, which my printer can remake in ~1 hr and I know nothing else will be damaged.
I made a loose and a tight version. For me, the loose version worked perfectly. However, people have said that my designs are too loose, so I've also included a tighter version. Everyone's printer is a little different, I suppose mine's on the tighter side. Anyway, if you find it's not a perfect fit for you, I'll gladly tweak it for you.
I always love to hear if my models turn out well and if not, I'm happy to tweak.
I strongly suggest that you print without supports, I printed with Polymaker PETG and it turned out fine without any. Cleaning support out of female threads is a serious pain.
I modeled this in Solidworks.
