Car Battery Hold Down Wedge

thingiverse

This is a custom battery hold-down wedge designed for an unknown vehicle make, likely either Ford or General Motors. If you recognize its design, please let me know what car it's from. I've included images of the original black part alongside my printed blue version to highlight any differences. You may notice some variations in the photos due to the limitations of the design software used. The bolt hole on my replica is a stepped bore rather than a perfect circle, while the bumps on the original have been replaced with straight rows to provide better grip on the battery. To ensure strength and durability, I've added a thick perimeter with 10% and 50% infill settings, although this may be excessive for some applications. The part was printed using PLA, but it's not the most ideal material for use in engine compartments due to temperature sensitivity.
