Description

This 3D printing clearance test is specifically designed to help makers model 3D parts with the correct tolerances before printing, taking into account the unique behavior of their own printer, filament, and print settings.

By testing clearances from 0.2 mm to 0.9 mm, this tool allows you to identify the optimal spacing to use directly in your CAD designs, ensuring that assembled, press-fit, snap-fit, or moving parts will function correctly once printed.

It is an essential calibration aid for anyone designing custom mechanical or functional parts, helping to reduce trial-and-error and improve print reliability.

Features:

  • Clearance values from 0.2 mm to 0.9 mm

  • Helps determine real-world tolerances for your printer

  • Designed to guide CAD modeling before printing

  • Ideal for assemblies, joints, and moving parts or boxes

  • Fast and easy to print

Printing recommendations:

  • No supports required

  • PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU compatible

  • 0.2 mm layer height

  • 1–7% infill
