These are gust locks for aircraft control surfaces. The flat ones can be use for most control surfaces.

Needed a set of gust locks for the airplane…

Print two flat ones per control surface.
Buy one M4 Stainless all-thread per lock: https://a.co/d/c7f4P4Z
Grab some M4 stainless wing-nuts: https://a.co/d/4kXngE8
I'd also suggest some fender washers: https://a.co/d/4t1VE77

8/32 would probably work in place of M4 too.

I cut some pads out of 5mm EVA foam. This is high density closed cell foam that won't hold water.

I also suggest putting some shrink wrap around the threaded part that might touch paint once you work out the approximate distance between the pads.
