What it does
- Solid construction with thick walls so your air lines stay tight and won't leak
- Ball joint design lets you angle your hose exactly how you need it for any workspace setup
- Snaps together firmly so connections hold under pressure without slipping or coming apart
- Printed solid inside, not hollow, so you get strength where it matters most at the base
- Works with heat shrink tape for extra sealing if you ever need a stronger bond
Your workshop needs hose connectors that actually work. This 3D-printed flex hose piece gives you a strong, airtight joint that holds its shape and handles real use. You get solid material throughout, not just thin walls, so it takes serious force to break these apart.
The ball socket design lets you bend your hose to fit tight corners and odd angles in your setup. Snap the pieces together by warming one side slightly and wobbling them on with a side-to-side motion. Once they lock in place, the tight fit keeps air from leaking. You can use heat shrink tubing over the connection point if you want extra holding power.
Made from the US by Slimicus, this connector is built for people who need tools that last. Print it with your preferred material and watch it outperform hollow hose parts that crack and fail.

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 We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating.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.
