Parametric Labeled Barbed Y Hose Connector Inch

Boost Me If this model is useful for your workshop, prototypes, hose routing or custom inch-size hose connections, a Boost would be greatly appreciated.

It helps me keep developing practical, tested and fully parametric functional parts. Description

This is a fully parametric barbed Y hose connector based on practical inch-size presets , designed for flexible rubber, silicone or soft PVC hoses.

The main strengths of this model are:

Main advantage Description

Three independent diameters Each branch can use a different inch hose size: A, B and C are fully independent.

Fully parametric model Hose sizes, insertion lengths, Y angle and grip level can be edited directly in OpenSCAD / MakerWorld Customizer.

Automatic A / B / C labels Each branch is automatically engraved with its branch letter and selected inch size.

Inch preset workflow The user selects practical inch sizes, while the geometry is generated internally in millimeters.

Reinforced central body The central body is flat, rounded and automatically scaled according to the largest selected branch.

Minimum wall protection The cylindrical hose sections maintain a minimum radial wall thickness of 1.8 mm.

Unlike fixed-size Y connectors, this adapter allows all three barbed branches to be customized independently.

This makes it possible to generate:

- equal-size Y hose connectors - mixed-size Y reducers - custom hose splitters - inch preset hose fittings - prototype hose routing parts - workshop utility hose adapters - non-standard hose combinations - low-stress drain or vent hose connectors - experimental fluid or air routing parts This is the Inch Preset Version of the model.

The user selects practical inch hose presets, while the internal geometry is generated in millimeters for accurate OpenSCAD / MakerWorld Customizer operation.

Main Unique Features

Three Independent Inch Hose Sizes

The model has three independently adjustable branches:

Branch Function

A First hose branch

B Second hose branch

C Third hose branch

Each branch can use its own inch hose preset.

Example combinations:

Branch A Branch B Branch C Result

3/8" 3/8" 3/8" Small equal Y connector

1/2" 3/4" 3/4" Small-to-medium reducer

3/4" 1" 1-1/4" Mixed workshop splitter

1" 1-1/4" 1-1/2" Larger custom Y adapter

Fully Parametric Design

The Customizer exposes only the essential functional parameters.
