Description
Parametric 4-way connector designed for modular builds using rods or tubes.
Optimized for both customization and real-world use.
This connector features a fixed 90° + 180° arm layout, making it ideal for stable cross-joints in frames, structures, enclosures, and DIY systems.
Key Features
- Fully parametric – adjust diameter, length, and clearance easily
- Fixed geometry – reliable alignment every time
- Optional reinforcement ribs for extra strength
- Part of the Modular Connectors system
- MakerWorld Customizer-ready
Fit & Tolerances
- Default clearance: 0.25 mm
- For tighter press-fit → decrease clearance
- For easier assembly → increase clearance
Print Options
- Standard orientation with optional flat bottom for better bed adhesion
- Best print orientation (stronger, diagonal layering)
Use Cases
- Modular furniture frames
- DIY structures and rigs
- Pipe / tube assemblies
- Prototyping systems
Customization Parameters
You can easily tweak:
- rod_diameter – match your tubes
- arm_length – adjust reach
- clearance_mm – control fit
- extra_strength – enable ribs
- best_print_orientation – maximize strength
Notes
- Designed for real-world load, not just visual models
- Works well with PLA, PETG, or stronger materials depending on use
- For structural builds, consider PETG, ABS, or ASA
