NEW ROTARY LATCHES FEATURE TWO-STAGE ENGAGEMENT FOR SECURE, ROBUST PERFORMANCE
The new Southco® R4-20 and R4-50 Rotary Latches provide superior performance for use in industrial, agricultural, construction, recreational and off-highway applications. The compact R4-20 offers a robust, space-saving design with both single-stage and two-stage engagement for secure latching. The rugged construction and corrosion-resistant finish of the R4-20 make it a desirable choice for harsh environments. The heavy-duty R4-50 satisfies the requirements of the U.S. FMVSS-206 standard for passenger entry doors and provides rugged design, durable construction and flexible actuation options.
The R4-20 Series latches enable minimal protrusion on the interior side of a door, and they feature concealed hardware for a clean exterior look. Like the R4-20, the R4-50 features a slim profile that allows it to be enclosed within limited space. Its two-stage engagement, double rotor mechanism and compatibility with multiple actuator designs and door handles enable the R4-50 to satisfy unique configuration requirements.
Available in both right-hand and left-hand models, the R4-20 and R4-50 latches feature hardened steel pawls for reliable performance in harsh environments. Additionally, forgiving mating tolerances accommodate misalignment or flexing on large door panels, and industry standard mounting holes allow the latches to be used as drop-in replacements in current installations Matched with the appropriate Southco components, the R4 latches offer versatile options for accommodating a variety of installations.
