Connect two different sizes with a custom adapter
Two ends that do not match, a tube, a post, or a fitting. Tell us both diameters and the length you need, and we plan a stepped adapter that connects them.
Set your sizes
The adapter builder is not live yet. Send us your two sizes and a person plans the part with you.
What we can make
Connecting two different tube sizes
A stepped adapter joins two ends with different diameters into one straight run.
A reducer between two fitting sizes
One end wide, one end narrow, built to your two measurements and the length between them.
How it works
- 1Tell us the sizes listed above.
- 2Send your numbers to the Solution Counter.
- 3A person looks at what you sent and plans the part.
- 4You see a price before anything is printed.
What we need from you
- The inner and outer diameter of end A
- The inner and outer diameter of end B
- The overall length you need, and the wall thickness
- Whether you want a plain straight step or a barbed end
Materials
Most adapters use PLA. A part that flexes or takes some knocking around can use PETG instead.
See the full materials pageMeasurements and fit
- Measure the outer diameter of each end with a ruler across the middle.
- Measure the inner diameter the same way, if the part fits inside something.
- Measure the length you need between the two ends.
- We make it to the sizes you give us.
Common questions
- What sizes can an adapter connect?
- Tell us both diameters and we plan the step between them. There is no fixed size list.
- Can the two ends be different shapes?
- Usually, yes, for round to round connections. Tell us what you are joining and we will say if it works.
- How strong is a printed adapter?
- It depends on the wall thickness and material. PETG holds up better than PLA under bending or repeated use.
- Do you charge just to plan the part?
- No. Sending your sizes and getting a plan back does not cost anything.
