WisMesh Repeater Mini 35° Pole Mount | Captive Hose Clamps + Wall Mount

A 35° pole-mount remix for the WisMesh Repeater Mini, with captive hose-clamp passages and an alternative screw-mount version.

The original bracket provides a useful mounting arrangement, but its open curved saddles allow clamp bands to move toward an edge. This remix adds two enclosed curved passages to keep the bands captured within the bracket.

The original repeater-side mounting geometry and 35° angle are preserved at 100% scale.

What’s included

• Captive Pole: Main bracket with two enclosed band passages.

• Flat Screw: Alternative bracket with a flat mounting plate and four screw holes for a wall, board or wooden post.

• Saddle Fit Check: Standalone saddle for checking your pipe and clamp hardware before printing the full bracket. This part does not support the repeater by itself.

• STL and 3MF versions, editable sources, and an illustrated PDF guide.

This remix includes the 35° version only.

Clamp and strap compatibility

Each curved passage measures approximately 14.3 mm wide × 4.5 mm deep.

Intended hardware:

• Worm-drive hose-clamp bands up to 12.7 mm / ½ inch wide.

• Hook-and-loop straps up to 12 mm wide and 2 mm thick.

• Zip ties up to 8 mm wide.

Use two independent clamps or straps, one through each passage. Stainless worm-drive clamps are the intended choice for outdoor installation. Hook-and-loop straps and zip ties are temporary options for sheltered mounting or indoor testing.

Pole fit

The original listing specifies a 44 mm diameter pole. This remix retains the source saddle’s approximately 23 mm inside radius.

Print the included fit-check part and verify contact with your actual pipe. Compatibility with other pole diameters has not been established. Avoid scaling the whole bracket to fit a different pipe, because that also changes the repeater mounting interface.

Installing the clamps

Open the worm clamp and feed its free band end through one side opening, around the curved passage, and out the opposite opening. Wrap the band around the pole, reconnect it to the worm housing, and repeat for the second clamp.

Keep worm housings, strap buckles and zip-tie heads outside the passages. A clamp that cannot open will not thread through.

The enclosed passages retain the bands while the bracket and bands remain intact. Resistance to the entire mount sliding or rotating on the pole still depends on clamp tension, friction and print integrity.

Screw-mount version

The separate flat-back version has:

• Four 5.5 mm through-holes.

• 42.00 × 44.58 mm hole spacing.

• A 10 mm thick mounting plate.

Use all four holes with suitable screws, flat washers and fixings appropriate for the mounting surface.

Suggested print settings

Starting settings for a first test print:

• 0.4 mm nozzle / 0.2 mm layers.

• 6 walls, with 6 top and bottom layers.

• 50% gyroid or cubic infill.

• 100% scale, in millimetres.

• ASA for exposed outdoor use; PETG for fit checks or more sheltered use.

Use the supplied orientation. Supports are required under projecting rails and truss areas. Inspect the layer preview and keep supports out of the curved band passages; check bridging with the fit-check part first.

The STL and 3MF files contain matching geometry. The 3MF files include orientation but do not contain printer-specific slicing profiles or G-code.

Revision and testing status

R1 prototype. The exported models have passed digital checks for watertight, connected geometry. Physical fit, clamp loading, heat creep, wind and fatigue testing have not yet been completed. No load or wind rating is assigned.

Please share makes and feedback with your pipe diameter, clamp-band width, material and print settings.
