Description

I used PLA and heat-treated (Annealing PLA) it by covering it in sand and heating it up in the oven. You can find youtube videos regarding how to Anneal PLA. If it does not last I will look at printing in PETG or ABS. I used this part on the rear window of a 2004 Nissan Sentra. It should work for 2000-2006 Nissan models but may also work for others.

This plastic Nissan part tends to break in half. The part rides in a track at the bottom of the window.
The part should press fit onto the end of the arm attached to the window motor. I covered my part in grease to lubricate and protect it from moisture and so far it is working perfectly.

I use the open-source program SolveSpace for my 3d drawing.

Pricing assumptions and exclusions

USD: ($6 setup + $3 finishing + filament weight × assumed spool cost × 1.25 waste allowance + print hours × $2.50 × material time factor) ÷ 0.65. Rounded up to the next $0.50.

Assumed spool costs per kg: PLA $25, PETG $30, ASA $40, ABS $30, TPU $45, Nylon $65, PA-CF $95. Time factors: PLA/PETG 1.0, ASA/ABS 1.2, TPU 1.6, Nylon 1.4, PA-CF 1.5. These are proposed shop rates, not measured production costs.

Design work, test fitting, hardware, shipping and tax are additional where needed. Multi-file sets may need several prints. Use actual sliced weight and time when available. Final pricing is confirmed in writing.
