1262-100-10 — the Metrol 1262 is a large, non-locking over-centre draw latch finished in black powder coat, designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers while allowing quick, controlled access when needed. Suitable for industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings, this latch helps prevent accidental opening caused by vibration or handling and supports repeatable day-to-day operation.
Constructed with a die cast zinc body with a black powder coated finish, the 1262 has been salt spray tested to over 300 hours, confirming its suitability for demanding environments. The universal panel cut-out dimensions (Ø3.2 x 6) allow straightforward installation across a range of panel types and thicknesses without the need for custom tooling.
As a non-locking draw latch, this model provides over-centre mechanical retention without a dedicated lock mechanism, making it well suited to applications where fast, tool-free access is a priority alongside reliable closure. The latch is backed by a guaranteed one-year warranty and is one of several styles available within the Metrol 1262 range, with alternative lock types, sizes, and finishes selectable to match varying access frequency, security, and installation requirements.
