Design Update

The red clip shown on the right side of the second image is the KLIPPT Locking Cable Clip, which succeeds this earlier KLAMMA model. KLIPPT introduces a separate, versatile base plate that enables multiple mounting options, including screw mounting, adhesive mounting, and compatibility with established mounting systems. Due to its reduced adhesive contact surface, KLIPPT is primarily optimized for mechanically fastened installations. For applications that require adhesive-only mounting using 3M VHB or similar tapes, KLAMMA remains the preferred solution.

Motivation

I recently had to do a bit of cable management and was in need for some simple cable fixtures. The existing models didn't fully satisfy my list of requirements. They are either non-locking C-Style designs, require additional hardware for the joint or are only available as screw on versions. Most of them don't come with *.step or *.f3d files to accommodate for custom dimensions. My approach to this challenge is mainly inspired by these cable clips on Amazon.

Features

Over far too many iterations my (for now) final design incorporates the following features:

Sturdy structure

An embossed middle section stiffens up the lever part and makes the thinner hinge section the definite bending point.

Locking design

In comparison to most other designs this one has a compliant latching lug. Even heavier cables won't force the clip open even with a wall width of only 1.6 mm

Easy and fast to print

A consistent perimeter thickness over the prints z-span assures a smooth overall finish. All layers consist of long print path and only the ribbed version sacrifices a bit of simplicity over visual aesthetics.

Customization

Find the attached Fusion 360 file with neatly organized User Parameters to customize e.g. width and length.

Variations

The ribbed versions are meant to ease a cable routing process by holding back already placed cables. They are a bit more fiddly when fully loaded.

Print Instructions

The compliant hinge will work best with PETG, but ABS/ASA or even PLA will work as well but may break if open/close cycled too often.

This model is optimized to be printed with a 0.4 mm nozzle using the Arachne slicing Engine.

Additionally Required Hardware

You'll need something to fix these clips to a surface. I like Tesa Power Strips because they don't leave any residue upon removal; But other double sided foam tapes will work as well I guess (e.g. 3M VHB Tapes).
