Description
Replacement part for a cat window perch suction cup mount. The original plastic piece breaks over time due to the tension from the cable and the weight of the cat. This is the rigid backing plate that sits inside the silicone suction cup, with a central stem that holds the metal cable clamp in place, secured by a knob nut. Printed in PETG for flexibility, heat resistance and durability. The silicone suction cup is flexible enough to allow assembly by pressing the disc through it. Designed as a direct replacement — no modifications needed. Print settings: Material: PETG Infill: 40%+ recommended Print orientation: ~45° angle to avoid layer separation at the stem base. Printing flat (vertical stem) will result in weak layer adhesion at the most stressed point. Supports required.
