Functional 3D Printable Spring Latch

🔒✨ Fully 3D Printable Spring Latch! ✨🔒

I designed this latch with a spring system integrated directly into the print 🛠️

The flexible part functions as a real spring, with no need for additional metal components 😍

✅ 100% 3D Printable
✅ Integrated functional mechanism
✅ No external spring
✅ Compact and durable design
✅ Perfect for light doors, boxes, hatches, and DIY projects

⚙️ Assembly

To complete the assembly, you need to apply a small dot of acrylic glue:

• on the end stop pin
• on the mechanism's closing cover

⚠️ Be very careful not to let glue drip inside the mechanism, otherwise the spring's movement might get stuck.

🧵 Recommended Material

The model is designed to be printed in PETG, following the recommended print parameters, to achieve the correct elasticity and durability of the flexible part 💪

The flexibility of PETG allows the printed spring to work surprisingly smoothly ⚡

Ideal for those who love Print in Place mechanisms and smart solutions for 3D Printing 🤖
