Mudtrooper Face Mask or Respirator Hardware (Buckle and Clip)

thingiverse

Respirator hardware for a Mudtrooper build. The compression ladder glide is meant to work with Sean Field's Mudtrooper 3D model which you can find at mudtrooper.co.uk. Compression ladder glide goes right up against the mask to allow the strapping to attach and is meant for use with a 3/4" webbing strap as pictured. I've also updated the files to include a reproduction of the clip hardware used on the respirator strapping obtained from a "Small Yugoslavian Backpack" which is available from a number of military surplus shops such as Colemans for about $15 USD. To make the printed version work you'll need to print it laying flat and insert a 3/4" D-ring into the small closed end of the main clip before the loop is closed. You'll also need a 2mm pin/rivet and a torsion spring (McMaster-Carr part number 9271K101) to attach the closure and have it be functional. I would highly recommend just purchasing the backpack to obtain the hardware given the low cost of the backpack and questionable reliability of a 3D printed version, but you could probably just print the two files included here and glue the two pieces together to make a non-functional buckle to pass basic approval if needed.
