A guide to latches

This guide from Essentra Components provides an overview of the different types of latches and their purposes, helping you choose the right latch assembly for your application.

Latches are essential for keeping doors, panels, and other surfaces securely closed, differing mainly in their actuation mechanisms and holding types.

We cover various latch types, including cam, compression, slam, draw, and sliding latches, and explore how they protect applications from ingress, minimize vibration and noise, and enhance security across industries such as automotive, HVAC, outdoor enclosures, and machinery.

By understanding these options, you can select the ideal latch for your needs.
