Heat Blanket Switch

Heat Blanket Switch

thingiverse

This replacement switch is designed for heated pads, similar to heat blanket switches. With 3D printing, this part outperforms its original injection-molded counterpart in several ways. The pictures clearly show that the molded piece had very little excess plastic, making it difficult to twist on and off. To print this switch successfully, follow these guidelines: print upside-down with the slots facing upwards, using a layer height of 0.2mm and supports. As you remove the supports, they should leave behind a relatively clean finish. When installed, this switch fits snugly in place, yet outperforms its predecessor in terms of durability and aesthetics, particularly when printed in red. This design aims to help others repair what would otherwise be discarded due to a small plastic component failing.
