New Compact Rotary Latch Series From Southco Eliminates Noise and Vibration

Product Updates, Southco


Southco has further expanded its successful line of rotary latching solutions with the launch of the R4-10 Rotary Latch with Integrated Bumper. Southco's newest rotary latch is available in single and two-stage options and features an integrated rubber bumper that eliminates noise and vibration caused by normal operation.

The R4-10 with integrated bumper features a design that traps the striker between a rubber bumper and rotor. Without extra clearance or room to move, any noise potential that could be caused by metal-on-metal movement or vibration is eliminated. While both the single and two-stage options provide proven, secure latching, the two-stage option is designed specifically to prevent false latching conditions.

The high-strength, compact design of the R4-10 Rotary Latch occupies minimal space within the enclosure, providing concealed latching and increased security. Available in corrosion-resistant steel, these latches are suitable for demanding environments and can be used in a broad range of applications across industries. Additionally, R4 Rotary Latches can be combined with Southco's line of mechanical and electronic actuators and cables for a complete rotary latching system.

Global Product Manager James Stoud adds, “With the incorporation of the rubber bumper option, our new R4-10 Series offers a significant reduction in the common 'buzz, squeak, and rattle' of door hardware during normal operating conditions.”
