Description
This model is an adapter that attaches a garden hose to a pipe with a flange. The Fusion 360 file is parametric that should allow easy adaptation to similar pipes. The original rubber hose washer was used with the repair to seal the connection.
If you want to use Fusion 360, the XML file is included that specifies the threading size for the garden hose. If the threading needs adjustments to accommodate printer tolerances, adjust the INTERNAL threads by modifying the MajorDia and MinorDia. The PitchDia is the average of the major and minor diameters.
<MajorDia>1.1130</MajorDia>
<PitchDia>1.0565</PitchDia>
<MinorDia>1.0000</MinorDia>
