Camloc: What is a Tension Latch? Tension latches are a common type of fastener that provide secure and quick closure. They are often used in applications requiring frequent access. How They Work: ⭐ The Power of Tension: A lever mechanism is used to create tension by pulling on a hinged arm. This arm applies clamping pressure, forcing the connected panels together for a tight seal. ⭐ Built for Strength: Tension latches can handle high tensile loads, making them perfect for demanding applications. However, it's important for the assembly design to minimise shear forces on the latch itself. ⭐ A Speedy Release: The lever design allows for quick and easy opening, perfect for situations where frequent access is needed. Variety and Customisation Available in various sizes, shapes, and materials, tension latches can be adapted to different needs. Some models offer additional features like locking mechanisms. Adjustable tension latches provide large tolerance compensations Click on the link below to browse the Camloc range of tension latches: https://lnkd.in/e96iue6d Contact us to discuss how Camloc tension latches could work in your next project, at [email protected] #engineering #design #hardware #fasteners #tensionlatch
