Under-hood brackets and mounts
High-temperature, vibration-resistant
Functional prototypes and low-volume components for a sector where parts get hot, get vibrated, and sit in direct sun, which rules out most of what a general print shop will offer you.
Automotive is the application where material choice stops being a preference and becomes the whole decision. A parked car in Maharashtra in May reaches 60-70 °C inside; an engine bay goes far higher; an exterior part sees UV all year.
That environment eliminates PLA immediately, and most general print services default to PLA because it's easy. The part arrives, looks correct, and deforms within weeks.
Add vibration, which fatigues material and loosens fasteners, and you've a set of requirements that only a few filaments actually meet.
Indicative prices from our published rates. Every figure is what the estimator would quote for a representative part, configure your own for an exact number.
High-temperature, vibration-resistant
Fit checks and ergonomics before tooling
UV-stable, holds colour for years
Assembly and test tooling
Prices exclude GST and courier. An engineer confirms the final figure within one business day, submitting a request costs nothing.
Service to 120 °C with excellent fatigue life. The under-hood answer.
Anything exterior. UV stability isn't optional in Indian sun.
Impact-critical parts, absorbs energy that shatters stiffer materials.
Interior prototypes, acetone-smoothable to a moulded finish.
Not sure which applies to your part? Use the material selector , four questions and it tells you, with the reasoning.
Tell us the mounting location, peak temperature and load direction
We recommend the material and orientation against that environment
Prototype in 2-4 days, rush in 24 hours
Iterate on fit, then lock the profile for repeat batches
First-article inspection and retained sample on production runs
PA-CF holds to 120 °C and PC to 110 °C, which covers many under-hood locations but not all of them. An exhaust-adjacent bracket is beyond any filament we stock. Tell us the actual measured temperature at the mounting point and we'll tell you honestly whether printing is viable there.
This is where nylon earns its price. PA-CF has the best fatigue life of anything we print, which is exactly what repeated vibration demands. Orientation matters more here than anywhere else. We print so the layer lines run along the load, not across it.
No. We manufacture to your specification; we don't certify parts for road use, and nothing we print carries a homologation or safety approval. For anything safety-critical or regulated, printed parts are appropriate for prototyping and test fixtures, not for the vehicle.
