Southco’s New Compact Rotary Latch Features Dual Trigger Actuation

Product Updates, Southco

Southco’s new R4-10 Rotary Latch with Dual Trigger features a compact design and multiple points of actuation, allowing the latch to be triggered by two independent actuators. Dual actuation points and its compact size make the R4-10 with Dual Trigger an ideal solution for doors and panels that require actuation from multiple positions. For instance, the R4-10 with Dual Trigger facilitates access when entering or exiting an entry door, or when accessing a larger panel or piece of equipment from two separate points.

• Compact design minimizes protrusion within enclosure applications
• Provides concealed latching with push-to-close convenience
