Product Overview:
The DK635-1 Slide Latch is a heavy-duty, high-security sliding bolt mechanism engineered for reliable locking of industrial doors, heavy machinery panels, and metal enclosures. With an 85mm base length and a 114mm overall length, this robust latch features a built-in operation handle and a large Ø16mm locking hole. The DK635-1 Slide Latch is constructed from high-strength steel and finished with a white zinc plating, providing excellent durability and moderate corrosion resistance for demanding industrial applications.
Why Choose Steel with White Zinc Plating?
The DK635-1 is constructed from high-strength steel, offering excellent structural integrity and impact resistance. It is finished with a white zinc plating, which provides a protective barrier against rust and corrosion. While not fully stainless steel, the white zinc plating is highly effective for indoor industrial environments, automotive applications, and general machinery where cost-effectiveness and reliable performance are required.
