Why these break
Original hinges go brittle and snap at the knuckle. UV exposure breaks down the polymer chains in the original material. By the time the surface looks chalky or faded, the strength underneath is already gone.
How we reproduce them
Bring in the broken part and we'll reverse engineer it — usually with a design tweak that addresses why it failed in the first place, not just a copy of the weak original.
We print these in Nylon. Nylon is slippery and fatigue-resistant, which makes it the right choice for parts that pivot, slide or flex thousands of times.
Many plastic parts can be recreated, repaired, redesigned, or printed, depending on size, load, heat, material, and available samples. Bring in the damaged part or upload photos for assessment and we'll give you a straight answer before any work starts.
