CX633-1A & CX633-1AF Slide Latch | White Zinc Plated Steel Spring Bolt with Zinc Alloy Latch
Compact sliding door latch constructed with a durable steel bracket and zinc alloy bolt, finished with white zinc plating. Features a 10mm sliding stroke, 50x36mm base, and 27x38mm mounting hole spacing. Ideal for industrial cabinets, electrical enclosures, and metal furniture.
Product Overview:
The CX633-1A Slide Latch is a compact, heavy-duty fastening solution engineered for secure and reliable locking of industrial doors, cabinets, and metal enclosures. Featuring a robust steel bracket and a precision-cast zinc alloy bolt, this latch offers a smooth 10mm sliding stroke. With a 50mm height and 36mm width, the CX633-1A Slide Latch (and its variant, the CX633-1AF) provides a simple, vibration-resistant mechanism for access panels where a handle-free design is preferred.
Why Choose Steel Bracket with Zinc Alloy Bolt?
The CX633-1A combines the structural strength of a steel bracket with the smooth operation of a zinc alloy bolt. The steel bracket provides excellent load-bearing capacity and impact resistance, ensuring the latch will not deform under repeated use. The zinc alloy bolt is precision-machined to provide a smooth, friction-free sliding action. Both components are finished with white zinc plating, offering a uniform, clean appearance and excellent resistance to rust and corrosion in indoor industrial environments.
Reliable Spring Bolt Mechanism:
Unlike standard friction-fit latches, the CX633-1A features a spring-loaded bolt mechanism. The spring provides consistent tension, pushing the bolt securely into the strike plate or receiving hole. This design prevents the latch from rattling loose under vibration and allows for quick, push-to-open or pull-to-open operation. The 10mm sliding stroke ensures a deep, secure engagement.
