DescriptionMaterial:Compression latch steel. DIN 6336 star grip thermoset.Version:Compression latch trivalent blue passivated. Star grip black.Note:Compression latches are primarily used for doors and housings that require a high pressure on the seal. Right or left deployment. The locking direction is always clockwise.Assembly:Cut a notch in a Ø25 mm hole for the locking pin. Pass the latch through the hole. The tongue must be in the end position and in the centre of the opening before the nut can be slipped on and tightened.On request:Water tight A2 stainless steel version rated IP65.Function:Turning the actuator 90° brings the tongue into the closed position. Turning the actuator further winds the tongue up the thread and increases the pressure on the frame. To unlock the latch turn the actuator to the left.
