Case study

Throttle cable holder for a custom rocker cover

A production batch of engine-bay brackets in polycarbonate, where heat and repeatable fitment mattered.

By the Print a Part engineering team

Designed for a custom rocker cover setup, the part keeps the throttle cable fixed and aligned for consistent actuation. The geometry is simple but critical. Secure clamping, accurate positioning, and repeatable fitment.

Printed in polycarbonate (PC) for:

Heat resistance in engine bay conditions High strength and impact resistance Dimensional stability under load Production

This was a batch run, not a prototype. The focus was on consistency, clean fitment, and reliable performance across all parts.

Result

A compact, durable solution that integrates cleanly into the engine bay and performs under real-world conditions.

At a glance

The problem
A custom rocker cover needed a holder that keeps the throttle cable fixed and aligned for consistent actuation. The geometry is simple but critical: secure clamping, accurate positioning and repeatable fitment.
Approach
Designed as a batch part rather than a one-off, with the focus on consistency and clean fitment across every part in the run.
Material
Polycarbonate (PC), chosen for heat resistance in engine-bay conditions, strength and impact resistance, and dimensional stability under load.
Quantity
A batch run, not a prototype.
Outcome
A compact, durable part that fits cleanly into the engine bay and performs under real-world conditions.
