Wooden Door Latch Bolt Replacement Maco| Extension Shootbolt Tip | STL

Did the plastic latch tip on your wooden door's vertical flush bolt mechanism snap?

Don't replace the entire hardware set — just print this part!

This model is a high-precision Replacement Door Latch Tip (Shootbolt Bolt) designed for vertical lock mechanisms and flush bolts, commonly found on wooden doors.

This small plastic part absorbs all the friction and pressure when the door is locked, making it highly prone to cracking over time.

Hardware stores don't sell this plastic tip separately, but this STL file will fix your door mechanism in minutes.

✨ Why This Model is Highly Useful:

Bypass Whole Mechanism Swaps: Replaces just the broken plastic slider/tip, keeping the original metal rod assembly intact.
Smooth Engagement: Engineered with the correct mechanical bevel for fluent sliding into the strike plate.
Cost-Saving DIY Fix: Restores heavy-duty wooden door locking functionality for pennies.

❤️ Support the Creator:If you like my work and want to see more useful household fixes, smart organizers, and cool designs, please consider supporting me by purchasing this model for a symbolic price! Your support helps me cover filament costs and motivates me to keep creating high-quality, tested 3D models for the community. Thank you so much! 🙌

📐 Printing Orientation: For maximum mechanical strength, print the part on its side. This changes the layer line direction and prevents the tip from shearing off under pressure.

⚠️ SUPPORTS REQUIRED: Since the part must be printed on its side, using organic or tree supports is required for clean overhanging areas.

💡 Material Recommendation: This component undergoes high friction and compression. Do NOT use standard PLA. We strongly suggest using PETG, ABS, ASA, or Nylon. Use 100% solid infill or at least 5–6 wall loops.
