Description
M12 cable glands need a 17mm wrench for the nut and a 15mm wrench for the gland itself. If you're operating in a tight space, a 15mm nut might help!
If you need a specific size and you're not into FreeCAD that much, let me know!
Modify the FreeCAD file as you like. Picture shows a nut 3mm thick with 15 and 17mm wrench size and a 5mm high nut with a flange.
Don't hesitate to hit the ❤ and show some love. I'm always happy to hear from you in the 🗩 comment section. If you have problems printing my files: tell me in the comment section too!
I do like to have real CAD-files, when downloading things from others. Most users don't provide files other than .STL-files. These are useless for further manipulation or quick changes. So I'll provide the following files to you:
| Format | Included? | Description |
| STL | ✓ | - |
| STEP | ✓ | Version 214 |
| FreeCAD | ✓ | Version 20231231 |
No assembly required. The thread already has +0.2mm clearance, so it should work just fine. A calibrated printer is needed anyway!
