I did some test prints of Stax jacks with different pin-hole diameters.
As you can see, they are obviously 3D-printed, but the material is rated to withstand up to 195 °C.

So far I’ve been using them for about 2 years without any issues.

 

What were you testing with the different pin hole diameters? Did you use the threaded collet-style socket?

I'd like to try printing some sockets to work with these Neutrik HA-3FXX crimp contacts, but I don't have a 3D printer. When I finish the file I'll upload it for someone else to try.

Perhaps you could try JLCPCB who also offer a 3D printing service. I've been using their PCB service for over a year and it's excellent and extremely cheap. I suspect their 3D printing machines are better than what you use at home.

If Shawn would upload his files, I would be happy to get JLCPCB to print them.
