What it does
- Perfect replacement when your bath plug goes missing
- Simple, functional design that actually holds water
- Print-on-demand means you get exactly what you need, when you need it
- A classic RepRap-era design that just works
Sometimes the simplest 3D prints are the most satisfying. This bath plug is a straightforward, functional replacement for that stopper that always seems to vanish when you need it most. It's one of those "why didn't I think of that?" moments, a household spare part you can actually print at home.
The design is refreshingly no-nonsense: it fits standard tub drains, creates a solid seal, and does exactly what a bath plug should do. No bells, no whistles, just a reliable stopper that'll let you enjoy a proper soak.
Born from a real need (the designer literally needed a bath plug and decided to print one), this has become a beloved RepRap community classic. It's proof that 3D printing isn't just about fancy gadgets, sometimes it's about solving everyday problems in the most direct way possible.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
