From its solid stainless steel shaft to its easy-to-grip T-handle, this rugged latch is designed to operate reliably in heavier duty applications. Its intuitive lever-action mechanism generates sufficient compression to hold doors snug and rattle-free, despite the vibration of heavy diesel engines or the shocks of rough terrain.

• Available in multiple sizes to provide the strength, grip, and appropriate pull-up compression for a large variety of door sizes
• 6 mm (.24") of consistent pull-up compression provides a snug fit to dampen vibration, minimize noise
• Multiple pawl options and adjustments accommodate a broad range of relative door-to-frame dimensions
• N2 with standard cup size utilizes same simple panel prep as Southco N4 latch, for easy drop-in replacement
