This stylish and easy-to-print coat hook makes it easy to hang a variety of items. With large diameters and generous curves, this can hold most apparel without creasing or stretching.
The outer “cup” portion is designed to hold:
The inner “knob” portion is designed to hold:
The knob is provided in multiple sizes for different functions or aesthetic preferences. If you intend to use locker loops, I recommend using the small size, although the medium may work.
*A “locker loop” is the loop commonly found on dress shirts and outerwear, often at the collar or yoke, and may be on the inside or outside of the garment.
This model was inspired by the Duo Coat Hook, created by @SharedObjects_56029. That model did not meet my preferences, which include:
This was modeled completely from-scratch and, with those significant changes, does not constitute a remix. However, I did want to give credit to my design inspiration.
Layer adhesion is key. I've provided the settings I used below, but also a range of acceptable settings, in case you get better layer adhesion with different settings.
As-oriented in the STL files, with the narrow side of the cup and wide side of the knob on the bed.
I have printed this in both PETG and PLA. ABS and ASA should work as well.
These can be mounted using screws or double-sided (VHB or 3M Command) tape.
Tip: The knob can be permanently attached to the cup using wood glue, or hot glue. This should significantly improve load-bearing capacity, and can make up for some layer-adhesion issues. Do not do this when mounting with screws unless the installation is intended to be permanent, as it will be impossible to remove without damaging the hook, wall, or both.
The screw holes are 4.5mm in diameter. That is equivalent to a #9 wood screw. For extra-heavy loads or usage, I'd recommend using washers as extra security against pull-through.
I highly recommend either screwing these into studs or using wall anchors. Screwing into plain drywall is a recipe for sadness.
I can only recommend using 3M VHB tape or Command strips. Other adhesives may work, but have not been tested. The weakest point will be the wall finish (e.g. paint), so make sure that is durable before using this method.
