Bosch Dishwasher Tine Row Pivot Clip

Couple of updates: 

(1) I've replaced my original model with a new version that provides some additional clearances where it clips onto the washer rack bars. I also increased the wall thickness around those clips and added improved ribs and webbing to prevent bending/cracking of the part. The new version is a good bit beefier than the original Bosch piece, but I think that's going to be necessary using FDM versus an injection molding part.

(2) I originally recommended PETG because of the need to use a water resistant material - and I stand by that. However, my original model only lasted about 3 weeks of daily use before I noticed significant deformations in the part. I believe this is due to repeated immersion in very hot water raising the PETG close to (or more likely, over) its glass transition temp of 80C. So with my latest iteration, I printed with PET-CF. This is my first efforts with this material, but I'm hoping it will stand up better to the near boiling water environment in the dishwasher. Time will tell.

Designed to replace a clip from a Bosch dishwasher, but I believe the part is compatible with other brands that use the same style of clip. 

The designed part is beefier than the original to 1) simplify the design process, and 2) to provide more strength and rigidity to the part.

Make sure you use a water resistant material like PETG or ABS when printing the part. (PLA is not recommended because of its hydrophilic nature and lower temp resistance.)

I would also recommend a smaller layer height to improve detail retention and strength of the final part. I used 0.12 layer height for mine. Print standing and with organic supports as shown in the screen capture here.

You may also want/need the clip at the other end of the tine rack. I found this model, Siemens dishwasher plate rack hinge, here on Printables that worked quite well.
