Intex Hose Connector – Ø 26 mm (inner) / 31.6 mm

This 3D-printed part is designed to connect two flexible Intex-style hoses securely. It can also be used as a reinforcement sleeve for hose joints that collapse under strong suction pressure (e.g., when using a powerful pool vacuum). In such cases, the hose plastic may deform — this rigid connector prevents that.

🔧 Specifications:

• Inner diameter: 26 mm
• Outer diameter: 31.6 mm
• Fits most soft pool hoses (Intex compatible)
• Best printed in PETG for water and pressure resistance
• Supports required during printing

🖨️ Printing tips:

• Material: PETG (or ASA)

💡 Also useful for DIY repairs, hose reinforcements, or custom water system setups.
