Description
If you use the IKEA ELVARLI clothes rail, this custom clamp-on hook system is a simple but super useful upgrade for your laundry area, bathroom, or utility space.
I designed this clamp specifically for the ELVARLI pipe so you can easily hang drying pads, cloths, rags, gloves, or small tools without needing extra hangers. It locks onto the rail with a tight, secure fit — intentionally engineered for stability.
This model is based on a popular concept, but I rebuilt it with several important improvements:
Reinforced clamp arms
The original versions tend to crack at the top of the clamp. I thickened and reshaped this stress point to prevent breakage.
Completely support-free printing
Designed so you can place it on the bed and print it exactly as-is — no supports required.
Three sizes included
2-slot version – small and compact
6-slot version – the everyday all-rounder
10-slot version – maximum capacity for big cleaning batches
Optimized for PETG
I printed mine with PETG for better flexibility and durability, but PLA should also work if treated gently.
Material: PETG (recommended)
Layer height: 0.2 mm
Perimeters: 3
Infill: 20–30%
Supports: No supports needed
Orientation: Slot side up, clamp base on the bed
Just snap the clamp around the ELVARLI rail — the friction fit keeps it firmly in place. Hang cloths, pads, or anything that fits into the slots.
Designed specifically for the IKEA ELVARLI clothes rail diameter.
Tight fit is intentional for strength and stability.
If you want a looser or customized fit, let me know — I can adjust the model.
