Solar Lamp Repair Bolt
Description
This is a replacement part for a solar path light we purchased at Costco. I believe it is labeled as a "GTX Solar Path Light". The bolt which holds the lamp assembly together had been broken off at the plug that fits into the metal tube base. The replacement needed to include a new plug that would fit the tube & match the bolt thread as well as a new bolt. The bolt needed to include a nub to hold a conical reflector and include a cross piece structure to engage the protrusions at the bottom of the glass envelope there to hold the bolt while being screwed into the plug. These components were built in Tinkercad using simple shapes & a threads shape generator. The original bolt has a width at the threads of about 12.2 mm, which fit the original lamp needing repair. I had a similar lamp that required a smaller diameter. The .stl with 2 parts has a bolt thread width of about 10.8mm, which worked for the second lamp. The threaded plug outside diameter is the same as the original. https://www.tinkercad.com/things/frF7is7Tli5
