4PK Weld-On Spring Loaded Latch 5/8in Steel Trailer Gate Latch for Trailer, 4PK

It is commonly used in the transport and shipping industry with trailers as door locks, or ramp holders for securing loading ramps. It is mostly used with trailers as a door lock or to secure additional equipment in trailers or other farming attachments. You can find the other necessary details of our spring lock below: Bolt: The bolt of the spring lock is 2in long and has a diameter of 5/8in. It is made from stainless steel and is strong and rust-resistant. The bolt moves in and out of the latch housing when the handle is pulled. The surface of the spring lock provides a clean, metallic appearance. Housing: The housing is the main body of the spring latch lock that holds the bolt and spring in place. It has dimensions of 2in in height, and 1 1/4in in width. It is made from carbon steel and provides a structure for the bolt to operate within. Pin: The pin length of our small spring lock is 3 3/8in. It acts as a locking mechanism within the spring latch assembly, holding the bolt in place to secure the gate or door until the handle is pulled to release it. Spring Latch: This latch uses a spring mechanism to automatically secure the bolt into the locked position when released. The spring provides tension that keeps the bolt pushed into the locked position without requiring external force. When you pull the handle, it retracts the bolt against this spring tension and allows the gate or door to open. Round Handle: The round handle is 2 1/2in in length. It is made from carbon steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The handle is used to pull the bolt back, which compresses the spring and allows the latch to disengage. Application: This latch is commonly used for machinery, equipment maintenance, and safety guards. It is for transport applications where doors, ramps, or other components are required to stay closed during transit such as in trailer doors, or ramp holders for securing loading ramps. Installation: You need to weld the housing onto the desired surface, such as a trailer gate or door frame. Make sure that the position aligns with the gate frame so the bolt can slide in and out of the housing freely.
