Black Diamond trekking pole tip protector caps

Rubber tip protectors for Black Diamond Trail, Distance Z and Alpine Carbon poles, as well as Leki and Komperdell, that slip over the carbide tip so the poles do not scar rock, click on tarmac or shred a rucksack lid when strapped on. The cap has an 11.2 mm bore 25 mm deep for the 11 mm tip housing, 2.5 mm walls, a 16 mm domed foot with a crosshatch tread, and a 1 mm inward lip so it grips the tip's shoulder. Print in TPU 95A at 0.16 mm layers, tip-up, and expect them to outlast the ones in the shop. Open the ready-made model free, resize it on your phone or computer, then download a print-ready STL, 3MF or G-code sliced for your printer, free.

This prompt comes with the ready-made model when you sign in, in case you want the AI to redesign it (3 credits a redesign); changing numbers in the viewer is free.

Fit notes

Tip housings range from 10 to 13 mm across pole brands and a downloaded cap for one brand walks off another mid-hike. Measure your tip, tell SpeakCAD the diameter and foot shape you want, preview the cap in the browser, tweak the lip in the chat, then download the STL and print a set of four.

A shared STL is modelled for someone else's measurements. Here you open the ready-made model free, change it to your measurements in the viewer, then download a file sized for the part you actually own, free as STL or 3MF.

Yes. SpeakCAD slices the part on its servers with OrcaSlicer and your printer's official profile (380+ printers, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Elegoo), and you download the G-code (a sliced .gcode.3mf for Bambu Lab printers). G-code sliced for your printer costs the same as the STL: included in every plan, free for a part you shaped by hand, 4 credits without a plan for a part with AI work in it. Pick your printer on the printers page to see its profile.

No. SpeakCAD runs in the browser on your phone or computer: the chat, the 3D engine and the live viewer load in the tab. The only file you download is the finished STL, 3MF or sliced G-code.
