Description

It's a printed in place rotary valve used to connect 9mm flexible tubes (Inner diameter = 7mm). The tolerance between moving parts is 0.4mm. I also made a 0.3 and 0.5mm tolerance version.

 

The 0.4mm version prints well on my Ender 3 v3 SE.

The 0.3mm is better for Bambulab.

 

I use this valve for my ants farm. It's really useful during maintenance when you need to disconnect parts of your ants farm. 

 

The F3D file is parametric.

 

Be careful ! It can easily cut in half an ant when closing. 

Do not try this system on aquariums. It is not watertight.
