Flat top face for tape or logo badge if you want to brand it Parameters and guidance Parameter What it controls Typical values Notes Ball_Dia Ball that plugs into your socket 17, 20, 25.4 mm 25.4 mm is “1 inch” RAM style Neck_Dia Stalk under the ball 10–16 mm Thicker neck for heavier phones MagSafe_Dia Puck outer diameter 55–60 mm Apple puck is about 56 mm. Leave 0.2–0.4 mm clearance for PETG Pocket_Thk Lip height that captures puck 1.4–2.2 mm Thicker lip holds tighter Cord_Slot Cable exit width 3.2–7 mm Fit to your cable jacket Plate_OD Overall plate diameter MagDia+5mm Larger plate increases stiffness
Sizing notes For a tight press fit, set MagSafe_Dia to puck diameter minus 0.2 mm in PETG. For ABS or ASA, reduce clearance slightly since parts shrink more evenly. If your socket is very tight, scale Ball_Dia down 1 to 2 percent. Print settings (tuned for Bambu and similar printers) Orientation: plate flat on the bed, ball pointing up Layer height: 0.20 mm Walls: 3 to 4 Top/bottom: 4 to 6 Infill: I used a very high infill, like 90% (First one I made had snapped on me) Supports: only under the neck fillet if your slicer flags it. Paint supports just around the neck, leave the plate clean Brim: 3 to 5 mm brim if using ABS or ASA Material PETG is the safe default for cars ABS or ASA for high heat and sun PLA is fine for indoor or winter use but can soften in hot cars Assembly Press the MagSafe puck into the pocket. If needed, warm the ring slightly with a hair dryer. Route the cable through the notch and snap it into place. Pop the ball into your socket mount and adjust angle. Done. Compatibility Works with Apple MagSafe puck and most third-party clones Ball sizes from 15 mm to 26 mm are easy to achieve with the parameter Tips If the ball squeaks in the socket, wipe it with a tiny bit of silicone grease. For a looser puck fit, add a very thin TPU ring under the lip. If you remix, keep at least 3 wall lines around the ball and neck for strength. Or change the neck thickness.
