The file 'Combination Padlock V2 3D Printer Model' is (zip,STL) file type, size is 5.8MB.

Summary

This is a working combination padlock design that can be used in place of a standard Master Lock on a locker or whatever. It's relatively strong, but it is plastic it's, so not for high security.

UPDATE 8/22/2024:

  • Fixed the body models adding more clearance around the detents and springs. Use Body_FIXED.STL. This should resolve the printing issues many people are having.

  • Added an option to print the springs separately if you prefer. The springs work quite well this way and should be easier to print successfully. Use Body_noSprings.STL and Spring.STL. Updated instructions are below.

Features:

  • Configurable combination: up to 10,000 possible combinations
  • Selectable security options: 3 or 4 tumblers with 6 or 10 digit numbers
  • Spring loaded detent feature on tumblers for precise positioning and satisfyingly tactile feedback
  • Similar dimensions to classic rotary Master Lock for compatibility with most lockers and other latches
  • Strong lock body and shackle that resists forcing open
  • Normal or long shackle options for securing larger latches
  • SolidWorks files for your own customization

v2 Improvements:

  • Print-in-place springs for detent works far better than old design which would break after a while
  • Option for 3 or 4 tumbler lock and 6 or 10 digit tumblers
  • Threaded cap eliminates glue and allows for easier changing of combination.
  • Taller wall next to shackle latch better resists forcing open of the lock
  • Flipped tumbler position for easier right-handed operation
  • Tumblers can now be printed without supports
  • Various changes to make printing easier and cleaner
