Sterilite Gasket Box Latch

Description

This is a replacement latch for a Sterilite Gasket Box. The ones I own are 54qt (51L), but from looking at pictures of other Sterilite gasket boxes, I think this latch is used on multiple models. It fits pretty tightly (tighter than the original) but it does work. A bit of superlube on the posts helps a bit. With the originals the little posts on the latches kept breaking, so now I can print replacements.

Please leave a comment if you use this on a different size box and it works (or doesn't).

Print Settings

 

Printer Brand: Anycubic

Printer: All-metal Mega

Rafts: No

Supports: Yes (Tree)

Resolution: 0.3

Infill: 40%

Filament: Duramic PLA+ Silver 
 

Notes: 

NEW RECOMMENDED PRINTING ORIENTATION (Oct 23, 2022): 

The object in the STL is in the orientation I printed it in. Feel free to experiment if you have a better idea. I printed it with 40% gyroid infill with tree supports using PLA+. Using a support brim for better adhesion of the tree supports is highly recommended.

June 2023: I've actually recently found that in this orientation it will print ALMOST without supports as long as you have adequate part cooling. Really only the pins need to be supported.
 

If this design was useful to you, please post a make!
