Description

Intro

A super-simple 3D-printed tool for cleaning USB ports, Lightning ports, and other narrow connectors. Designed to remove dust, lint, and debris quickly and safely, this cleaner prints in about 2 minutes and fits easily in a drawer or tool kit. 

Ideal for maintaining phones, laptops, game consoles, chargers, and other devices with small ports — helping improve connections and charging reliability.

Usage: Insert the printed cleaner gently into the port and move it back and forth to push out dust, lint, and debris. Be careful not to use excessive force to avoid damaging delicate contacts. This tool is great for regular maintenance to keep connectors clean and functioning well. (Tip: power off devices before cleaning.)
