Convenience and Ease of Operation

These plastic panel and sheet metal locks have a simple design that consists of four main parts: a plug, retaining ring, socket, and nut. The plug and retaining ring attach to the removable panel, while the socket and nut go into the underlying structure. Once you have completed the installation, you can attach and remove panels in just a few seconds. To operate the push lock fastener, simply insert the plug into the socket and push it in to engage the lock. Push it again to disengage the lock.

Design Features Add Reliability and Usefulness

The lock sits flush when engaged, which prevents snagging risks and obstructions. The locked cam ensures that the panel will not come unfastened due to vibration, giving you a secure hold even in turbulent use conditions.
• Plug Dimension: 13/16” (2.5 mm)

This is the height of the plug from top to bottom.

• Grip Dimension: 3/64” – 5/64” (1.2 – 2. mm)

This is the distance between the bottom of the widest part of the plug and the top of the socket.
