Push Lock
The push lock panel fastener is a labor-saving, cost effective latching device, ideal for lightweight doors, compartments and control panel covers. Snaps easily in from the front and locks securely in place. All that is necessary is a punched hole - no screws, bolts, rivets or other fasteners are required, dramatically reducing installation time. This one-piece assembly is small in comparison to similar latching devices, making it ideal for low profile applications.
