Kedron Cupboard Hinge
Salt, sun and vibration are brutal on Kedron plastics, and the cupboard hinge usually gives up first. A tougher printed replacement breaks that cycle. Variants differ between years and models, so we'll need your part (broken is fine) to match the exact one.

Why these break
Original hinges go brittle and snap at the knuckle. Heat cycling is the killer here: years of expanding and contracting work-hardens the plastic until a routine bump becomes the final straw.
How we reproduce them
These take a proper modelling pass: we measure the mounting points and clip geometry from your part, reinforce the known failure point, and verify fit with a test print before the final run.
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.
