Metabo Battery Mount Clip

Metabo made solid gear, but the small plastics are always the first to go — and the battery mount clip is a regular on our bench. We've made this style of part before and can usually print yours without drama.

Why these break

Wall-mount and holder clips crack at the rail. The factory part is made from styrene-based plastic that loses its plasticisers over the years. It gets glassy, then one warm day it lets go under a load it used to handle easily.

How we reproduce them

Reproducing one is straightforward for us: we measure your sample (broken is fine, as long as most of it is there), match the profile, and print in a tougher modern material. Turnaround is usually within the week.

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.

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.
