Reinforced X-Axis Cable Strain Relief for Prusa i3 MK3S+

prusaprinters

<p>A version of the “X-Axis Cable Strain Relief for Prusa MK3” by misterT, modified with stronger clips. I really liked the design, but I printed several of the originals and they all kept broke when I installed them. It should fit on any NEMA 17 Stepper Motor. The clips on this version are approximately twice as thick. The new version still has clearance during operation on my stock MK3S+.&nbsp;<br><br>Printing Notes:<br>• Any rigid and heat-tolerant plastic. (The NEMA 17 motor appears to have a max operating temp of 180C, so ABS or PETG should be okay.)<br>• No supports needed.<br>• Brim recommended.&nbsp;<br>• Infill 100%.<br><br>Installation:&nbsp;<br>• Slid it onto the motor gently.&nbsp;<br>• It will snap into place.<br><br>Today I Learned:<br>NEMA 17 is a technical specification. The US National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) categorizes stepper motors by how big they are from the front. Thus, 17 means the motor is 1.7 by 1.7 inches (43&nbsp;mm ×&nbsp;43&nbsp;mm).<br>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepper_motor#NEMA_stepper_motors<br><br><br>&nbsp;</p>
