A moulded ABS thermoplastic body, push-to-close convenience, and flexible locking options make the new Southco A3 push-to-close slide latch an attractive and cost-effective method of securely latching sheet metal and thin thermoplastic door panels between 8 and 16mm thick. Its integrated lock-plug housing provides added security without sacrificing the small envelope size of the latch and eliminates the need for a separate key cam lock. The one-piece design simplifies installation, with both key-locking and non-locking versions easily snapping into position in identically sized rectangular holes. A moulded-in spring-tab holds each latch in place.
