3D model description

My stock tensioner broke, and this is how I replaced it. In the files, you will find 2 parametric (solidworks) models which are fully editable, 2 ready to print STL's, and 2 step files if you wish to import to another mechanical design software. The file with "custom" in the name is my version, which I've designed to be slightly more robust than the stock component. If you'd rather have the stock component to replace your old one, use the file without "custom" in the name. You will need to use the old M4 threaded heat insert unless you have new ones.

3D printing settings

This part is under significant load from the tensioning spring, so I would recommend:
4-5 walls
4-5 top/bottom layers
25%-40% infill (I used gyroid, but infill pattern is less important)
