Snap handle connector for Rev-A-Shelf trash cans

This is a replacement part for the plastic snap-fit cross-member bars that come in the Rev-A-Shelf 27-Quart Soft Close Double Pull Out Trash Can (from Lowes).

Product Link: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Rev-A-Shelf-27-Quart-Plastic-Soft-Close-Pull-Out-Trash-Can/50272143

The purpose of the bar is to keep the 2 cans from rocking back and forth too much when opening and closing them within your cabinet. Unfortunately, the plastic clips slip off too easily and have been known to break off, and the manufacturer doesn't seem to sell these parts individually for replacement.

This part requires no supports but works better with them. Align on its side on the surface of your print bed and add supports on the bed only for best results.

You will have to get creative when removing the old, broken part before affixing this replacement with a little bit of super glue. Allow to dry before putting your bar back on the trash bin frame.

Removal Hints

I've had questions on how to remove the old part. Here are my recommendations:

• Heat gun: apply a little bit of heat to help make the piece more pliable for pulling off or cutting into pieces
• Cutters/Nippers: Cut away small chunks of the plastic until you've got it all the way down to the rod.
• Hacksaw: Cut into the plastic parallel to the rod. This should allow you to remove it in only a couple of pieces
