Noise and Vibration Resistant Rotary Latch from Southco Now Available in Heavy Duty Stainless Steel



CONCORDVILLE, Pa. — Southco, Inc., a global leader in engineered access solutions, has further expanded its successful line of rotary latching solutions with the launch of the stainless steel 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 stainless steel version offers corrosion resistance for consistent performance in harsh environments.



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 provides 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 stainless steel and 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 Stroud adds, “The newest addition to our R4-10 Series combines rugged stainless steel construction and provides a significant reduction in the common ‘buzz, squeak and rattle’ of door hardware during operation, making it an ideal choice for heavy duty application zones where corrosion resistance is crucial to product performance.”
