Ariston Cooktop Control Knob
Salt, sun and vibration are brutal on Ariston plastics, and the cooktop control knob usually gives up first. A tougher printed replacement breaks that cycle. We've made this style of part before and can usually print yours without drama.

Why these break
Cooktop knobs split at the D-shaft. 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
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 cabin temperatures without complaint.
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.
