<p>Replacement male side-release buckle for Quechua/Decathlon backpacks with a 40mm belt.</p><p>This specific buckle was found on a “Quechua Bionassay 22” backpack, but will likely fit several other backpacks using the same design.</p><p>The code on the original buckle reads:</p><ul><li>male <code>ITW NEXUS/A WSR=40</code></li><li>female <code>ITW NEXUS/A DWSR=40</code>.</li></ul><p>This model takes some design concessions in order to be a printable but functionally equivalent replacement. Print settings are important for correct results: I'm attaching a PrusaSlicer 2.5 3mf model with the necessary adjustments.</p><p>You'll want to print this using a material with some flexibility. PLA won't last long. PETG results in comparable strength and stiffness to the original and didn't show signs of wear after 3 months of daily use.</p>
