Gasmate Stove Control Knob
A broken stove control knob shouldn't sideline otherwise good Gasmate equipment, and with a decent sample to work from it usually doesn't have to. We've made this style of part before and can usually print yours without drama.

Why these break
Control knobs split at the valve stem. The original was moulded thin to save cents at production volume. That was fine when the plastic was fresh — years on, there's no margin left in it.
How we reproduce them
This is a quick job on our end — we take dimensions from your old part, adjust for print tolerances, and run a small batch so you have spares for next time.
We print these in ABS. ABS matches the look and feel of the factory plastic, takes a sanded or textured finish well, and handles everyday warmth without complaint.
As with everything in our library: whether a part can be reproduced depends on size, load, heat, material, and having a decent sample to work from. Send photos first — the assessment costs you nothing, and we'll tell you honestly if a genuine spare is the better option.
