6mm Belt Catch

thingiverse

Needed a belt catch for the Y axis of my "Anet A8" as I was moving the stepper from horizontally mounted to vertically. This will allow the use of heatsinks in the heated build chamber (Such that they are). This wraps the belt back on itself and uses its own teeth to hold. It also has a slot for the return side of the belt. It has a 14MM standoff built in to support my printer's geometry. If you need something smaller, I suggest dropping the part down into the build plate in your slicer to "cut off" what you don't need. The mounting holes are clearance for a M3, but tapable for M4.
