USB extension cable end holder and rail clip for 20x20 rails

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

These fit typical 20x20 t-slot-rails such as are used on 3D printers and other applications.
The cable clips are used to contain cables and wires inside the t-slots.
I have also re-mixed this in a version for more generic usage at- https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4050715
The clamp set fits standard USB cable ends having a 17mmx9.5mm profile snugly.
Note that the interior height of the cover is actually only 8.5mm so it will not clamp completely against the tab (small gap).
This was intentionally done so the cable end will be securely clamped, but the height can easily be scaled in your slicer to suit your needs.
It is designed to work with two M3x18 screws for the clamp cover, or with two M3x20 screws and washers as shown.
The recessed hole in the tab is for a button head M5 screw.
Use that screw with a suitable t-nut to fasten into the side slot.
There is a rib on the underside of the tab that aligns with the side slot to prevent the assembly from rotating.
The clip has a convenient finger tab for ease of removal and fits snugly on the rails.
These were designed to neatly manage the extension cables and cable ends on my printer.
I hope they may help you.
