Railcore II Aluminum Y Carriage Belt Retainer

Rebuild/Remix of the Aluminum Y-Carriage Belt Retainer for the Railcore II. Changes include:

  • Includes a Support Blocker stl - supports are not required inside the tension bolt tube and I found it frustrating to get a good support structure so built in this blocker. Reference your slicer's settings on how to include a support blocker
  • Added additional brass insert on back to allow for a part cooling fan support bracket
  • Small clean up to model facilitates cleaner printing
  • Rounded edges slightly to make inserting belt + belt clips easier

Suggested print orientation as in the image above, with the thinner belt clip wall/floor being on the bottom was best as it is the stronger print position (no bridging) while the thicker one on top gives more layers to build up over the upper (supported) clip opening. This is also the installation orientation.

The matched Part Cooling Fan Support Bracket is designed to work with this part and the James Tongue Part Cooling Duct.
