My take on the magnetic PTFE connector!

This connector doesn't need a PTFE fitting, therefore saving you some money and time, no more waiting for your next amazon or aliexpress order (if you happen to have magnets lying around)!

Theres two variants:

Legacy: 

  • About 5% harder to print without supports
  • magnets touch each other (slightly better contact)
  • Glue is optional but recommended

Version 2: 

  • No need for supports or glue
  • Magnets have 0.4mm (x2) of filament between them (n35+ magnets hold fine)
  • easier to remove the magnets afterwards
  • comes with an optional lid(v2b) for aesthetic purposes

 

It takes about 10-15 mins and the print instructions are pretty easy to follow:

Layer height:0.12-0.2mm (0.2mm first layer)
Wall Ordering:Outside to inside (Cura)/Print external perimeters first (Prusa)
Support:Optional (Legacy) / None (v2)
Infill: 20-25% rectilinear/grid
Material:   Any!

 

Changelog:

v1.0 (11.01.24):
  • tweaked some tolerances
  • tested it in my setup for about a month
  • Release!
v0.95 (11.12.23):
  • Reworked the design and came up with an easier solution
  • The old connector is now labeled as the legacy version!
v0.9 (11.12.23):
  • Start of development 
  • Modeled the connector
  • printed a few variations

 

To-do List:

  • Make remixes with different magnet sizes (if anyone wants them)
  • Improve printability of the legacy version with built in supports or sequential bridging
  • Leave your suggestions in the makes/comments section!
