Strong Cable Clip

Extra strong grip, straight from the printer. Fits Kallax, Besta, or can be customized to any other shelf/desk. I tried similar models from printables.com, but they all had bad tolerances or weak grip strength, so I designed my own.

I stacked 200g worth of stuff on the clip and it didn't move. Without needing tape for extra friction.

Sample prints: Kallax inner for 5mm cable diameter, Kallax inner for 11mm cable diameter, and Kallax outer for 11mm diameter.

Print Settings

  • printer: Prusa Mini+
  • filament: transparent Prusament PETG, Prusament PLA Orange
  • print settings: 0.2mm, no supports

Customization

make.py creates STLs for several well-known shelves (see below). For custom shelf thicknesses, larger cable diameters, and so on, open clip.scad and use OpenSCAD's customizer panel.

Presets

  • IKEA Kallax inner shelves (16.2mm)
  • IKEA Kallax outer walls (37.2mm)
  • IKEA Besta shelves and outer walls (18.35mm)
  • IKEA Besta top shelf (30.7mm)
  • IKEA Besta center wall (37.7mm)
  • IKEA Ivar shelves (18.0mm)
  • IKEA Ivar side unit, front-mounted (44.2mm)
  • IKEA Ivar side unit, side-mounted (32.0mm)
  • IKEA Lack desk and legs (50.25mm)
  • generic shelves (18.35mm)
    • this size fits IKEA Metod shelves and non-IKEA branded shelves, so chances are that it will fit for many others too
