Rotatable Passive Wrist

The wrist has a limited range of +90 -90 degrees.

The red ball pin is mad of rigid plastic and it can slide along the red canal, this ensures the range limitation.

The blue ball bearings are soft material (TPU 82A) so they exert a certain amount of pressure on the outer ring, keeping the wrist firmly at the current position, but still allowing the user to rotate it by applying a stronger torque.
