Heavy-Duty Actuators operate reliably in rugged environments.

Press Release Summary:




Designed for use in rugged exterior environments where remote latch actuation is critical, AC-10 and AC-15 are available in both locking and non-locking versions. Flush-mount AC-10 provides direct, single, or multipoint actuation of latch when used with cables, while AC-15 provides direct actuation and features SMT design to minimize protrusion. Both products are constructed of corrosion-resistant materials and designed for reliability in heavy-duty applications.

New Heavy Duty Actuators from Southco Provide Reliable Actuation in Rugged Environments



CONCORDVILLE, Pa. — Southco, Inc., a global leader in engineered access solutions, has recently expanded on its successful line of mechanical actuators with two new styles that provide reliable actuation in heavy duty applications. Constructed of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, AC-10 and AC-15 Actuators are designed for use in rugged exterior environments where remote actuation of a latch is critical.



The AC-10 features flush-mount installation and provides direct, single or multipoint actuation of a latch when used with cables. The AC-15 provides direct actuation and features a surface mount design to minimize protrusion. The AC-10 and AC-15 are available in both locking and non-locking versions and further build on Southco’s wide range of AC Actuators. When combined with Southco R4 Rotary Latches and AC Cables, AC Acutators create a complete Rotary Latching System that provides secure, reliable remote latching for interior and exterior applications.



Product Manager James Stroud adds, “Southco’s AC-10 and AC-15 Actuators are ideal for heavy duty use where robust operation is required, such as off-highway vehicle and industrial equipment applications. Available in flush and surface-mounting options, these actuators provide secure actuation of a latch in challenging environments and can be easily actuated with a gloved hand.”
