Olympic Window Stay Arm
Spares support for older Olympic products is patchy at best. Reproducing the window stay arm locally is often quicker and cheaper than the hunt for old stock. Variants differ between years and models, so we'll need your part (broken is fine) to match the exact one.

Why these break
Stay arms snap at the pivot hole. Vibration fatigue does the damage: thousands of small flexes add up to a crack at the stress point, usually right where the part clips or pivots.
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 PETG-CF. Carbon-fibre PETG is noticeably stiffer than the stock plastic, so the part holds its shape under clamping force instead of slowly creeping loose.
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.
