Installation Using Strike
Mechanical Attachment
- Locate and form holes for latch and strike.
- Strike can be eliminated by slotting panel or hooking drawhook over an edge. (See Illustration)
- Adjust "B" or "C" dimension as applicable to obtain desired clamping load. Dimensions referenced typically allow latch to lock up with no clamping load applied.
- Attach latch with No. 12 bolts or 7/32 inch diameter rivets. Attach strike with No. 5 machine screws or 1/8 inch diameter rivets. (Fasteners are not supplied)
Weld Attachment
Locate latch and strike (see notes 1A and 1B above), and weld in place.
