Heater Blend Door Actuator Gear – 2006-2010 Ford Explorer
3D-printed heater blend door actuator gear for the 2006-2010 Ford Explorer, made to order as an affordable alternative to a discontinued or expensive original part.
About this part
This is the small gear for a heater blend door actuator in a 2006 Ford Explorer. That model is the 2006 - 2010 so it should work in all of those years. If anyone needs the larger gear, I don't have it designed but definitely could if needed.
Printed 15% Infill and 2 Walls with some PET-G
Haven't done extensive testing but it is GUARANTEED up to 5 turns from hot to cold lol. Will update post with further testing and models if it fails.
I did have to flip it upside down and press it over the metal shaft, and then I could fit it over normally, though I may update the model if it causes issues / you could always scale it up
