3D model description

This is a simple clamp for holding bundles of wires, cables, or even pneumatic hose. It works using the inherent flexibility of plastic parts. Works in PLA or ABS.

Inspired by traditional cable clamps like this one: https://amzn.to/2HLJeTN

Update: Here is a modified version by 'robkingva' which allows you to snap the parts together!

3D printing settings

I printed in abs at 20% rectilinear infill but I set every 5th layer to print solid for added rigidity.

Be aware that one of the parts is oriented upside down in the model, so if you print it as provided then you are trying to make a cantilever over air. Just remember to flip the part!

Hardware Required:

(1) #8 x .75" long bolt

(1) #8 nylock nut

OR You could probably substitute a Zip-tie for the bolt
