Description

A barbed end plug that dead-ends a 1-inch PEX line. Three tapered barbs rise from a solid 28 mm collar cap, stacked directly on one another so each ring sits flush against the next with no gaps, and they taper from 21 mm to a 22 mm maximum diameter to suit pipe with roughly a 22 mm inner diameter. The collar is a 28 mm cylinder, 3 mm thick, with a 1 mm chamfer on the bottom outer edge, and it is the cap as well as the pipe stop — only about 3 mm of it shows past the barbs, so the stop is shallow. There is no bore: the plug is solid through, about 33 mm tall, sits flat on the plate, and prints as one piece as a 28 × 28 × 33 mm body. Because it seals rather than joins, check the barb fit against your actual pipe before committing to a full run.

Remix hooks

  • Barb profile: three tapered barbs stacked flush as one sawtooth suit roughly 22 mm inner diameter pipe. Change the count or soften the taper for harder or softer tubing, but keep the spacing equal to the barb height so the gaps between rings do not come back.
  • Collar: 28 mm across and 3 mm thick, it is only just wider than the barbs. Widen or thicken it for a firmer insertion stop; the bottom outer edge carries a 1 mm chamfer, which can be enlarged or removed to change entry feel.
  • Height: 33 mm overall is a compact cap; stretch the straight run above the barbs if you need more insertion room or a deeper seat.
  • Barb diameter: 21–22 mm is the number to change first for other pipe sizes. The collar and barb spacing can stay put while only the taper moves.
  • Ends: the solid cap is the safe baseline. Extending the same barbed profile out the other side turns it back into a straight coupling, and an elbow or tee is a body swap rather than a barb redesign.
  • Fit check: barb dimensions are nominal, so test against your actual pipe before printing a full run.
  • Pairs with: 1-inch PEX runs that need a temporary or permanent dead end, pressure testing, and capping a line before fixtures go on.

Klarstein DryFy 50L 150 mm Exhaust Adapter

Klarstein DryFy 50L 150 mm Exhaust Adapter

Rectangular-to-round exhaust adapter for routing a 150 mm vent hose from a Klarstein DryFy Connect 50L dehumidifier. The part bolts over the unit's 285 × 120 mm rectangular exhaust port and rises through a 50 mm straight rectangular section before lofting to a round spigot that slides inside a 150 mm hose. The rectangular body leans 20° toward -Y, and the spigot carries a further 20° tilt in the same direction, so the hose leaves the unit well off vertical. The rear of the spigot is pulled back into line with the rear wall of the leaning body, so the back of the adapter is one straight, continuous face with no bulge or kink at the transition; the front still curves as the rectangle narrows to the round spigot. The flange sits flat on the print plate; the overhanging body and spigot will need support. Specifications Overall size: 315 × 220.9 × 186.3 mm as it sits on the print plate Mounting flange: 315 × 150 mm, 4 mm thick, sized to cover a 285 × 120 mm rectangular port Four 4.5 mm screw holes, one in each flange corner Straight rectangular section: 50 mm tall above the flange, leaned 20° toward -Y Transition: 60 mm loft from the rectangle to a round spigot Hose spigot: 148 mm outside diameter, 50 mm long, set at 20° toward -Y on top of the body lean, for a 150 mm hose Combined body lean and spigot tilt put the hose axis roughly 40° off vertical, toward -Y Straight back face: spigot rear wall aligned with the rear wall of the leaning body Retaining ridge near the spigot end Wall thickness: 2.4 mm The angled spigot ends in an elliptical cut face; the hose slides on along the tilted axis Flange sits flat on the print plate; supports required under the leaning body and spigot Screw hole positions are a nominal layout; check them against the actual port before printing if an exact screw match is required The rectangle-to-round change is steep over 60 mm; expect visible stepping on the loft unless printed with fine layers Check that the angled spigot clears the wall or obstructions behind the unit before printing
