The Metrol 1409-100-2520 is a non-locking T-handle compression latch with an adjustable grip, finished in black powder coat. Constructed from die-cast zinc alloy with a black powder-coated handle and housing, it is designed for panel-mounting applications requiring a secure, tool-free compression closure without a keyed lock mechanism.
The latch features a zinc die-cast handle and housing finished in black powder coat, paired with a mild steel zinc-plated cam that is included as standard. The adjustable grip accommodates two distinct grip ranges — 21.8–37.3 mm and 49–64.8 mm — giving considerable flexibility across varying enclosure depths. The Ø20 mm panel cutout requirement and compatibility with panel thicknesses from 1 mm to 27 mm make it suitable for a wide range of sheet metal and fabricated enclosure builds.
Rated to IP65, the 1409 provides dust-tight and low-pressure water-jet resistance, making it appropriate for use in workshop, industrial, and outdoor enclosure environments where ingress protection is a requirement. The non-locking configuration suits applications where access security is not needed but a positive compression closure is.
This product is manufactured by Metrol under the model designation 1409.
The 1409 non locking t handle compression latch with adjustable grip black powder coated is a strong and ergonomic T-handle lock suitable for toolboxes, machinery housings, meter boxes, loft hatches. Designed with a comfortable grip and smooth turning action, it provides secure access control for industrial and commercial applications.
