Retail & POS Parts
Shop fittings are full of small plastic parts that snap, walk off, or were never made in the shape you actually need. Printing them means no tooling, no minimum order and no six-week wait — you can have a dozen by the end of the week and change the design for the next dozen.

Common uses
- Peg hooks, display arms and stops
- Product risers, plinths and shelf blocks
- Ticket, label and price-card holders
- Shelf dividers, pushers and fence clips
- Till, terminal and card-reader mounts and stands
Fitting your existing shelving
Most of this work is making something mate with a fixture you already own. Send a sample part, or measurements and photos with a ruler in shot — slat wall pitch, pegboard hole spacing and shelf-edge profiles are the details that decide whether a part clips in or falls out. If you have a system name, tell us that too. We recreate the fitting geometry, share it for you to check, and print a set once it fits.
Small batches and changing your mind
This is where printing beats injection moulding outright for shop fittings. The design work happens once and copies are cheap, so twenty ticket holders is a sensible order rather than an awkward one. If a display does not work on the shop floor, you adjust the file and reprint rather than writing off a tooling bill. Branding in a raised logo or a colour to match a campaign costs nothing extra in tooling terms — worth knowing when a promotion only runs a month.
Finish, and where FDM is the wrong choice
Front-of-house parts are seen by customers, so it is worth being blunt. FDM leaves layer lines. On a matt black riser or a functional hook, nobody notices. On anything meant to look like polished acrylic, everybody does — and FDM cannot produce clear or optically transparent parts at all. If your display needs glass-clear panels or a mirror-gloss finish, buy acrylic and let us print the fittings, hooks and hidden structure that hold it up. That combination usually gets you a better display for less money than either on its own.
How it works
Send your file or describe the part
Upload an STL, OBJ, 3MF or STEP file, or tell us what you need with photos and a few measurements.

When we can read the geometry we estimate from it straight away — material, print time, supports and quantity all priced openly.
We check printability, then confirm
A person reviews orientation, wall thickness and supports, flags anything that will not print well, and confirms your final quote before any work starts.
Retail & POS Parts — example prices
Worked examples on real models from our print library, priced by the same calculator that estimates your own part. Sizes span small to large so you can see how cost moves with the part.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| J-Hook (small) | 23 × 34 × 10 mm | £1.28 – £1.63 | £1.36 – £1.73 | £1.54 – £1.96 |
| J-Hook (large) | 34 × 50 × 14 mm | £2.66 – £3.40 | £2.82 – £3.60 | £3.18 – £4.06 |

Guide prices for a single unit, calculated from the measured geometry of each example model — not fixed quotes. Small parts land at or near the £0 minimum order, and per-unit prices fall with quantity. Your price depends on your own part, its material and its printability. How pricing works.

Retail & POS Parts — FAQ
Can you match the hooks on our existing slat wall?+
Usually. Send a sample hook or measurements of the slot profile and pitch, and we will recreate the fitting. We check the fit with you before printing a batch.
Can you print clear acrylic-look display parts?+
No. FDM does not do optically clear — translucent is the best it manages, and it still reads as plastic. Use acrylic for the clear panels and let us print the fittings and hidden parts.
Can you add our logo to a display piece?+
Yes. A raised or recessed logo costs nothing in tooling — send vector artwork and tell us the size. It is one of the practical advantages over moulded parts for a short campaign.
Do printed parts work for food display?+
For dry, packaged goods, fine. For direct contact with unpackaged food we would want to talk it through first — printed surfaces are layered and hold onto residue, so we will not simply say yes to it.
How much does retail & pos parts cost?+
There is no fixed per-item rate — price comes from how much plastic the part uses, how long it takes to print, how much support and finishing it needs, and how many you want. The example table above shows what real parts of this kind work out at. Upload your file for a guide price on your own part.
How long does it take?+
It depends on the size of the part, the queue and the material. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will tell you honestly whether it is achievable before you commit.
Can I order one of the models from your library?+
Yes. Every model in our print library is a design you can have printed — pick one, choose a material and quantity, and the example price on its page is your starting point. You can also download the file and take it elsewhere; they are all CC0.
Are my files kept private?+
Yes. Uploaded files go to private storage, are never made public, and are only used to quote and produce your job.
Worth reading first
Practical guides that help you get a better part and a more accurate quote.
How to Copy a Part Without CAD
No file, no drawing, just a broken part and a pair of calipers. That is a perfectly normal starting point — here is how the process actually works.
Do 3D Printed Parts Shrink?
Yes — every material, every time. The question is how much, in which direction, and what to do about it before you pay for a part that does not fit.
Can You 3D Print Threads?
You can, and often you should not. Printed, tapped and heat-set threads each have a place — here is which one your part actually wants.
