📄 Description (Description)
[Spanish] Are you tired of your pool ladder's metal pipe hitting or scratching the tiled or fiberglass wall? This protector is specifically designed to solve that problem for good.
This is a cushioning plug designed to fit the bottom end of standard pool ladders with a 43mm Outer Diameter (OD). Being printed in flexible material (TPU), it absorbs impacts, prevents direct "metal-on-wall" contact, and protects your pool tiles or liner. It also features a center hole to allow water drainage, preventing stagnant water or dirt build-up inside the pipe.

⚙️ Recommended Print Settings (Recommended Print Settings)
A pool environment is demanding (water, chlorine/salt, UV rays, and mechanical pressure). For the part to function correctly and not degrade, use the following parameters:
- Material: TPU 95A (or other similar hardness). It is rigid enough to support the ladder's weight without collapsing, but maintains the necessary elasticity for cushioning. Avoid rigid materials like PLA or PETG for the contact area, as they could scratch the wall or break upon impact!
- Walls / Perimeters (Walls/Perimeters): 4 or 5. In functional TPU parts, strength is achieved by increasing walls, not just infill.
- Infill (Infill): 40% - 50%.
- Infill Pattern: Gyroid (Gyroid) or Cubic (Cubic) for uniform multidirectional impact absorption.
- Top/Bottom Layers (Top/Bottom Layers): 4 or 5 to ensure a solid surface and a good finish on concentric textures.
