This is the TPU rosette (toothed spacer/washer) for the Sony VCT-1170RM tripod head. It sits between the teeth on the rotating handle mount and the head body.
The original plastic wore out over time, causing the handle to bind or not rotate freely when the thumbnut was loosened. Printed in flexible TPU, this rosette conforms perfectly to the metal teeth, providing a smooth, compliant interface so the handle rotates freely when unlocked while still delivering strong positive locking when tightened.
