Filament type/brand/color used for the MK3 parts?

Hi,

I would like to print some new part for my i3 MK3 (like the 90deg heat bed bracket https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2837970 ).

Does anyone know the type, brand and color used for both the orange parts and the black parts on the MK3?

Many thanks!

And now you can join the rest of us, wanting to print the newer parts, but unable to buy the filament because it's out of stock...

Oh you are right... Damn it, any indication of how long it will be to be restocked?

Also, when you say the latest parts, is it official parts or stuff from the community? Where do you find the latest official parts?

Thank you! I was under the impression that some parts were made in ABS, but that was maybe for the MK2?

They are in stock, you just have to ask at support chat.

PRUSA made some revisions to the plastic parts after the initial release. Depending on when you got your printer, you may or may not have them. You can find them here:

Support suggested that I print the newer X-axis parts, as a shot-in-the-dark attempt to solve the numerous problems I am having. Unfortunately, I already have these newer parts.

not sure if this still holds true but mid feb is when they released a bunch of parts so if you received your printer after that, you likely have the b6 parts which are the latest versions.
