E5
The latest enhancements make Southco cam latches perfectly suited for many applications: automotile, off-highway equipment, HVAC, technical enclosure, medical equipment, electronics and telecommunications.
Modifications to this highly modular and easy to configure line have been developed at the request of customers seeking such attributes as intuitive push-to-close convenience, material options – such as stainless steel - and a choice of T-handle and L-handle styles. Other enhancements to the E5 range include styling and access control options, such as hand-, tool-, and key-actuated models and a choice of single-point and two-point latching installations to suit a variety of commercial applications. These range from light-duty use with covers and access panels in HVAC, office furniture, and industrial machinery, to storage compartments in recreational vehicles and bus, truck, or railway applications. All E5 latches, regardless of head style, include a latched/unlatched position indicator.
Southco has the capability to provide cam latch customers with all the benefits and competitive advantages of electromechanical actuation through the company’s next-generation electronic access control. By integrating Southco’s technologically advanced electronic control system with a mechanical cam latch, the product attains increased security, increased convenience, system integration and improved aesthetic design.
Global Product Manager, Jesύs Albillos, explains: “Thanks to their modular design, Southco E5 cam latches offer the most cost-effective, versatile and flexible access solutions for door and panel latching available. Our extensive choice of economical cam latch options for basic door/panel latching incorporate a wide range of styles designed to match specific frame geometrics and can be installed as retrofit to replace existing competitive latches.
Unlike its commodity-minded competitors, Southco is rapidly gaining market share by adopting a more customer-centric innovative approach to cam latch development, resulting in products offering improved levels of quality, enhanced and upgraded functionality, an enriched user experience and, subsequently, a growing band of loyal customers.
