Stacer Gauge Bezel
Spares support for older Stacer products is patchy at best. Reproducing the gauge bezel locally is often quicker and cheaper than the hunt for old stock. With your sample on the bench this is a realistic reproduction job.

Why these break
Gauge bezels crack and fog lets moisture in. The original was moulded thin to save cents at production volume. That was fine when the plastic was fresh — twenty years on, there's no margin left in it.
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 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.
