Bolt and Nut for Ikea Patrull Safety Gate

### WARNING: Using This Part May Cause Injury or Death If (and When) It Breaks. ### Replacement Bolt Printed to Replace Original One That Broke After Gate Was Installed Following a Couple of Years in Storage. I Had to Design and Print a New Bolt Because I Couldn't Find All the Original Ones When It Was Time to Reinstall the Gate. The Bolt Is 80 Mm Long, Shorter Than the Original 100 Mm. Use a Longer Metal Replacement If Your Door Frame Requires It. Attach This Bolt to the Floor End of the Gate to Minimize Stress on the Part. Printed in PLA, But You Should Definitely Use Nylon or Polycarbonate for a Stronger Material. After Printing, Attach Some Kind of Rubber to the Flat Surface to Increase Friction. ### UPDATE: ### The Bolt Just Snapped in My Hands as I Bent It a Bit to Test Its Strength. This Is Why You Should Not Use PLA for This Part.
