Masport Mower Wheel Hub Cap
Spares support for older Masport products is patchy at best. Reproducing the mower wheel hub cap locally is often quicker and cheaper than the hunt for old stock. We've made this style of part before and can usually print yours without drama.

Why these break
Hub caps crack and wheels loosen on the axle. 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
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 ASA. ASA is the UV-stable cousin of ABS — it holds its colour and strength through years of Australian sun where the original plastic went chalky and brittle.
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.
