Honda MT-5 Exhaust sealing manifold/bellow/tube/hose

thingiverse

My son was complaining about a leak from the exhaust system on his Honda MT-5. Oil drips and fumes were definitely an issue, so I made him draw this part in Fusion 360 and print it using my Pi-ETPU 95-250 Carbon Black filament. It turned out great, and the leakage is no longer a problem. Now, it will be interesting to see how the part/material handles heat, vibration, etc. My filament can withstand the sun's UV rays without issue, but elevated temperatures might become a problem as spring/summer approaches. I printed this using my upgraded Replicator 1 with the awesome Bondtech extruder https://www.bondtech.se/en/. The settings were: 0.8mm nozzle, 0.2mm layers, 220 degrees Celsius (50 on platform), and 3000mm/min. Check out my unique UV-stable, flexible, and conductive ETPU 95-250 Carbon Black filament here: http://rubber3dprinting.com/. If you don't need the conductivity, consider this: This filament offers several benefits even without conductivity: • The material composition eliminates "stringing/webbing" issues. • With a hardness of 95 shore A and carbon black filler, it makes for excellent print abilities. • The carbon black filler is an outstanding UV stabilizer, so prints are built to last in harsh environments. • The matte black surface finish has a very exclusive look. • It feels dry to the touch and isn't too stretchy. • It's perfect for timing belts, etc. http://rubber3dprinting.com/ http://palmiga.com/ Follow me on Instagram and/or Twitter: http://instagram.com/rubber3dprinting https://twitter.com/rubber3dprint Remember that you use my designs at your own risk, and I'm not responsible for any damage or injuries.
