Water hose adapter

This is a PETG adapter to connect extend a hose or gap a removed part because of a hole. It is quite tight and has many different positions to squash the hose in place between the rail and the ring.

Hose parameters

The hose in the picture above as about 0.2mm thickness and radius of about 5-6mm. If you add the adapter I've tested it with 2.5 bar and it only had a very small leackage.

Print parameters

I've been using 

  • a stainless steel nozzle together with Prusament PETG “JetBlack”.
  • Set perimeters to 10 so it is very stable and fast to print and basically has no infill this way.
  • You can print this standing, see the 10-combined-parts.3mf

Motivation

I created this for a friend because there were no such adapters and he often needs to put together different ends of hoses.

I've added the source files in freeCad, was a hazzle to create those but here it is!
