Panel Trim Clip (8mm hole)
A push-fit trim clip for a 8mm panel hole — a printable interpretation, and it says so plainly: a moulded fir-tree clip works by a stack of thin spring fins, which a 0.4mm nozzle renders as stiff blobs, so this one has a solid shaft and two chunky 1.6mm sprung fins instead. The blade is 3mm thick, which is the number that actually sets the fit in a round hole: a 3mm blade passes a Ø8 hole at a 7.4mm chord, and the fins spread to 9.4mm, so each flexes 0.99mm on the way through — about 2% strain at the root, inside what PETG springs back from. The 17mm head sits on the show face; the fin shoulders land 5mm below it, which suits panel stacks of roughly 2.5–4.5mm — measure your stack and we cut the grip to it. Printed flat, so the fins bend along the layers rather than across them. PETG only; PLA fins snap on the second insertion. It will hold a trim panel or a card against a body hole; it is not an OEM spring clip and nothing structural should hang from it.
