Thread these clips into your unused platen thread locations to retain 5/8" or 3/4" diameter water lines for injection molding machines. Helps keep hoses out of the way, and prevent them from wearing out on machine tie bars. Features a slot to use cable ties to hold back additional water lines if needed. 

I designed them for 5/8-11 or 3/4-10 threaded platens, but can design these for metric platens and hoses if needed. 

I would print this only with ABS or higher engineering grade materials. PLA or PETG is not going to have the temperature resistance when mold temperature control lines can run up to 205F.  No supports or brim is needed!
