Aluminium compression latch provides adjustable grip
Southco is expanding its E3 VISE ACTION Compression Latch series with an adjustable grip style featuring lightweight, aluminium construction, making it suitable for rugged outdoor applications that require higher strength, without adding additional weight.
The adjustable grip E3 Compression Latch is tested to EN45545, the European fire resistance standard, as well as EN61373, the shock and vibration standard for railway applications, and is suitable for a wide variety of industries. Similar to the standard E3 line, the adjustable grip version delivers robust, vibration-resistant fastening, features a variety of grip lengths and is available in numerous head style options for added security. In addition, the adjustable grip E3 features the same panel hole preparation as the standard series and is available with pre-installed pawl options to minimise installation time.
Global Product Manager Loc Tieu adds: "With its adjustable grip style and lightweight, aluminium construction, our newest E3 Compression Latch is a cost-effective alternative for a wide variety of applications where aggressive vibration is a factor. Its highly configurable design and proven fire resistance make the adjustable grip E3 an ideal solution for challenging operator environments."
