This part is meant to attach or hold things together. The lock is spring powered as to not be affected by weightlessness and the lock is lowered by the use of the astronaut’s fingers. There is a carabiner clip at the bottom of the spring lock so you can attach it to another object or even print out a second spring lock and hook them together. This part is meant to help astronauts with any problems regarding attaching things to their person, like tools, or holding two objects together, like cables, while also increasing the amount of things they can attach together due to the fact they can print multiples out.
