EMKA launches 1022 compression latches
EMKA has introduced compression latch technology in its Program 1022.
The 1011 series gasket construction often comprises mixed materials to ensure best performance, eg by using the durability of PVC with the flexibility of EPDM or the oil resistance of Perbunan.
Increasingly, many sections are UL listed, eg to UL50 which defines them as suitable for outdoor applications, and others are listed to UL94HB which refers to their self-extinguishing characteristics.
Simple manual fitment onto a door edge is quickly and easily achieved by using a spring steel core within the carrier section.
This is complimented with solid, hollow, bubble and finger sealing sections, thus permitting either compression or wiping seals as required by the application.
The differences in requirement for compression are accommodated by sections with compression compliance of 2.5 up to 11mm and even up to 30mm, dependant on installation parameters. Request a free brochure from EMKA UK ...
