Description

A compact, print-in-place traveling nut mechanism designed to mount onto a 15mm diameter shaft.

This stopper locks rotation exactly at 900 degrees (2.5 turns) in either direction. The inner blue sleeve slides over your 15mm shaft and secures with a standard M3 bolt and captive nut, while the outer orange traveler moves up and down the internal threads as the wheel turns.

Fitment and Constraints

  • Host Shaft: 15mm diameter. The bore is modeled at 15.2mm to allow for a snug fit.
  • Rotation Limit: Exactly 900 degrees (2.5 turns), enforced by rigid top and bottom flanges.
  • Assembly: Print-in-place. The mechanism prints fully assembled with 0.4mm radial clearance in the threads, permanently capturing the traveler nut between the outer flanges so it cannot back off.
  • Installation Requirements: You must have a fixed block or housing wall nearby for the traveler nut's side tab to ride against; this prevents the nut from simply spinning with the shaft and forces it to travel linearly.
