3D Printed Solutions for Custom Projects
12Volt Motorsports supplies 3D printed solutions for custom vehicle projects, workshop use, product development and small production parts.
3D printed parts can be useful where a standard off-the-shelf part does not fit the job. They can be used for brackets, mounts, housings, panels, covers, prototypes, templates and low-volume custom components.
We are based in Altona Meadows, Melbourne and ship 3D printed solutions Australia-wide.
What Are 3D Printed Solutions Used For?
3D printed solutions are used to create practical custom parts where shape, fitment, clearance, mounting position or low-volume production matters. They are commonly used when a project needs a specific part that is not easily available as a standard product.
Depending on the material, design and application, 3D printed parts may be used for interior mounts, brackets, switch panels, display mounts, sensor mounts, covers, housings, templates, prototypes and workshop fixtures.
Common 3D Printed Product Applications
| Application |
Common Use |
| Custom brackets |
Mounting small parts, modules, sensors, panels or accessories where a standard bracket does not fit |
| Mounts |
Mounting displays, switches, modules, small components, templates or project-specific parts |
| Housings and covers |
Protecting or enclosing small components, prototypes, electronics or custom project parts |
| Panels and inserts |
Creating switch panels, trim inserts, blanking plates, small panels or custom fitment pieces |
| Prototypes |
Testing part shape, fitment, clearance, mounting points and product concepts before final production |
| Workshop fixtures |
Jigs, templates, holders, guides and repeatable workshop-use parts |
Choosing the Right 3D Printed Part
The right 3D printed part depends on the job. Important factors include part size, mounting load, temperature exposure, UV exposure, vibration, material choice, wall thickness, fastening method and whether the part is being used as a finished product or prototype.
Some 3D printed parts are suitable for light-duty mounting, covers, panels and prototypes. Other applications may need a different material, thicker design, metal insert, post-processing or a machined/fabricated part instead of a printed part.
3D Printed Parts for Vehicle and Workshop Projects
For vehicle projects, 3D printed parts are often used where clean fitment and repeatability matter. They can help mount small components, clean up interior layouts, hold modules, support panels or prove a design before a more permanent production method is chosen.
For workshop and product development use, 3D printing can be useful for prototypes, jigs, templates, test-fit parts and low-volume custom solutions.

What are 3D printed parts used for?
3D printed parts are commonly used for brackets, mounts, housings, covers, panels, prototypes, templates, fixtures and low-volume custom components.
Are 3D printed parts suitable for vehicle projects?
Yes, 3D printed parts can be suitable for vehicle projects when the material, design and mounting method suit the application. Heat, vibration, load, UV exposure and mounting location all need to be considered.
Can 3D printed parts be used in engine bays?
Only if the material and design are suitable for the temperature, vibration and fluid exposure in that location. Not all 3D printed materials are suitable for engine bay use.
