About this print
A filament spool holder designed to accommodate a wide range of spool sizes and weights, intended for mounting on desktop 3D printers including the Anet A8 and HyperCube. The design uses 608ZZ skateboard bearings on an M8 threaded rod for smooth, low-friction unwinding. Assembly requires M8 threaded rod, two M8 nuts and two 608ZZ bearings, none of which are printed. PETG is a practical material for this functional bracket, offering better long-term resistance to workshop conditions than PLA.

a friend of mine made this universal filament holder. You can mount filament spools in a wide range. For maximum rated dimensions see attached picture. I tried up to 2.6kg material spools without an issue. For smooth unwinding it uses ball bearings. What you need: - M8 threaded rod - 2x M8 nut - 2x skate board ball bearing 608ZZ - 8mm (core) - 22mm (outer diameter) - 7mm (width) If you are looking for a mount for 20x20 aluminium profile http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2122402 or a clip on mount for Anet A8 http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2068469 Update 08/12/2020: added long and short variant with improved self centering functionFormatting may have been simplified. These are the independent maker's instructions and fitment claims; Hark Tech has not independently verified them.
Printing Universal Filament Spool Holder
For Universal Filament Spool Holder we would normally reach for PETG — it is tougher and more heat-resistant than PLA, ideal for parts that take load or live somewhere warm. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material?
