Compression latches enhance cabinet security

Polyamide wing handle resists corrosion
EMKA has introduced a corrosion-resistant polyamide wing handle with polyamide barrel and cam for closure of electrical enclosures, cabinets, wall mounted boxes, toolboxes, etc.
Customer logo options are available on all escutcheons.
1225 models can be non-locking or locking with various key combinations, including EMKA keys and other generic key lock types.
The range extends into swing handle options with a variety of locking solutions, including fixed barrels, profile cylinders, padlock variants and special security options, such as KABA and ASSA.
Lock inserts may be chosen from an extensive list of types, e g, double bit, square, triangular, while profile cylinder options include standard key, inserts, push button release, radial pin and radial pin push.
The whole range has polyurethane (PUR) injected foam seals on escutcheons for optimal conformation and sealing performance up to IP65.
An important feature of the EMKA program is modular interchangeability of components - the 1225 series exemplifies this in the flexibility of its closure system, where single, double, 3 and 5-point closure is possible.
This is achieved with the standard 3-point cam and round rods system, giving single, double and 3-point options with shoot bolt rods, straight rods, roller ends (for smoother compression) and special variants to suit unusual applications.
This is augmented by EMKA's standard multi-point flat rod system which greatly enhances customer choice with various catching methodologies to suit different gasket compression requirements, e g, twisted rods, roller rods, hooked rods and leading edge slides.
Flat rod systems may be fitted inside or outside the gasket sealing area (to maximise the useable panel area) and have the ability to lock around 90 deg corners - providing up to 5-point locking on doors from 800mm up to 2200mm high. Request a free brochure from Emka UK ...
