Cable holder
Measure the cable diameter and pick how many it should hold.
Material and quantity
An estimate from the model volume. The calculation shows the precise print time and material use, and you download the file or a ready project for your printer. No sign-up.
The slot is slightly narrower than the cable so it clicks in and stays. Stick it with double-sided tape or screw it on (tape and screws are not part of the print).
A holder that keeps your cables within reach
A cable holder is a small block with slots that you stick or screw onto a desk. The cable clicks into a slot from above and stays in place, even when unplugged from the device. You enter the number of cables and the cable diameter in millimetres. The slit above the slot is slightly narrower than the cable, so the cable stays in. It suits chargers, monitor and headphone cables.
The preview shows the holder with its outer size and the slot width, next to a rough price. We print the holder on our print farm in Czechia: it comes by Packeta to a pickup point or to your door. If you have a printer, you download the model free as a project or as an STL file. It prints without supports. Tape and screws are not part of the print.
How it works
- Measure the cable diameter. Measure the diameter of the cable, not of the plug. You can enter a diameter from 3 to 14 mm.
- Choose the number of cables. The holder can have 1 to 8 slots. All slots have the same diameter.
- Choose the fixing. Without tabs the holder sticks with double-sided tape. With the option "With screw tabs" it gets two tabs with holes at the sides.
- Order the print or download. Check the preview and the rough price and continue to the precise price; a print from us is paid from credit topped up by card. Or download the model for your own printer.
What the tool can make
Common questions
How thick can the cables be?
Cables from 3 to 14 mm in diameter. The hole is 0.6 mm larger than the cable so that the cable slides freely, and the slit above it is narrower so that it does not fall out.
Can one holder take cables of different thickness?
No, all slots of one holder have the same diameter. For cables of different thickness design several holders.
How is the holder fixed?
With double-sided tape, or with two screws when you switch on the screw tabs. Tape and screws are not part of the print.
How big will the holder be?
The length depends on the number and diameter of the cables and on the wall thickness; the preview shows the exact outer size. A holder for four 6 mm cables is about 61 mm long and 45 mm deep.
Does the plug have to pass through the slot?
No. The cable clicks into the slot from above, so the plug is not threaded through anything.
