Heavy Duty Draw Latches

Heavy Duty Draw Latches

Heavy Duty Draw Latches

(OP)


   I am trying to identify a heavy duty over centre draw latch.  I can find lots of stuff in the Southco and McMaster Carr catalogues with capacities of hundreds of pounds, but nothing like these.  If you examine the hook on the top view, there appears to be a logo stamped into it.

   Does anybody recognize who makes these things?  I am finding not anything in Google.

drawoh, I can't see half your post so sorry if this is no help but...

Back in the UK we used to use these on containers for the military.  I can't recall the actual supplier but maybe this will point you in the right direction.  Certainly similar were used on Raytheon containers.

KENAT, probably the least qualified checker you'll ever meet...

MintJulep,

   Thank you. That is not the one, but it is pretty darn close, and I can see what I am doing now.  

   Also, I duly note that this software does not scroll with large graphics windows.  Large screens help.  :)

Which software?  A real browser gives you a scroll bar... winky smile

handleman,

   Opera for Linux and Internet Explorer for Windows did not provide a scrollbar at the bottom of ths screen.  Firefox for Linux provides the scrollbar.

   Still, I should have reformatted the picture to be vertical.
