Low-cost quarter turn latching

6137 Series Pawl Latches provide basic quarter-turn latching at low installed cost. Studs, in black acetal plastic, are available with attractive wing, knob, or slotted heads.

One-way tabs on the pawl maintain its position and provide secure stud retention. Latch closes under spring tension. No spacers are needed.
