I needed some clamps for an unusual PVC pipe I had laying around. So I made this design inspired by our local generic hardware store clamps. It's parametric and can be customized in Fusion 360. The minimum pipe diameter is 16mm.
There are two models available:
- Pipe Clamp Interlocks Parametric.f3d
Pipe clamp with interlocks so you can save on screws when mounting multiple pipes (with varying diameters) next to each other. - Pipe Clamp Parametric.f3d
Pipe clamp without interlocks for a clean one pipe look.
Parameters are:
- Pipe diameter: The diameter of the pipe you want to clamp
- Wall thickness: The thickness of the clamp arms. I found that 1.5mm worked great for PLA
- Tolerance: The tolerance between interlocks (lower number means tighter fit) I found that 0.07mm provided just enough so it won't slide out on its own and fit snuggly.
To change the parameters:
- Load the .f3d file in Fusion 360
- Go to Edit → Parameters
- Set Parameters to your specification
- Export as .stl
- Print :=)
Supports: not needed
