1246-200-10 — the Metrol 1246 is a mini non-locking lever latch finished in black powder coat, designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers while allowing quick, controlled access when needed. With a grip range of 15–30mm and compatibility with panels ranging from 1–11mm in thickness, it suits a broad range of installation scenarios in industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings.
Constructed in die cast zinc with a black powder coated finish, the 1246 offers durability appropriate for demanding environments. It carries an IP40 ingress protection rating and has been salt spray tested to over 300 hours, confirming its resistance to corrosion in typical workshop and industrial conditions. The universal 25×71mm panel cutout simplifies installation across a range of standard enclosure formats.
As a non-locking lever latch, the 1246 is well suited to applications requiring repeatable day-to-day access without a dedicated locking mechanism, helping prevent accidental opening caused by vibration or handling while remaining straightforward to operate.
Latches are access hardware components designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers while still allowing quick, controlled access when needed. Commonly used in industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings, they help prevent accidental opening from vibration or handling and support repeatable day-to-day operation. Available in multiple styles and mounting options, latches can be selected to match different access frequency, security, and installation requirements.
