Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Paneloc Slam Latch with Cover. A slam latch is ideal for doors, drawers, truck and trailer bodies, construction equipment, farm equipment, and all aircraft applications. Slam latches are very versatile and can be used for many different reasons. The latch does offer easy operation, as well as secure closure. I do want to point out that it's got the square shaped spring that fits the square shaped pin perfectly for hassle-free operation. This latch does come with a cover.
It goes over that area there. The mount holes line up perfectly with the holes in the body, and that's going to offer protection to the spring. It also adds a clean finished look to the unit. The entire unit's made from a durable steel construction with a zinc-plated finish. It's going to do a great job at resisting rust and corrosion. You'll notice that here on the handle it's got the rubber cover.
That's going to be secured on there with adhesive so that's going to prevent the grip from slipping off. The handle simply provides a nice, easy grip design for the latch. When it comes to the dimensions, starting with the body first measuring edge to edge of the body, it's going to measure about 2-7/8" long. Edge to edge this direction, it's going to measure 2" wide. From the mounting surface to the top of the body's about 1".
The overall height from the mounting surface to the top of the handle is about 1-5/8" tall. The pin itself, edge to edge, measures about 4-7/8". It is a square design measuring a 1/2" by 1/2". The extension is how far the pin extends from the body. That's going to give us an extension of 3/4". The mount hole's on this unit going this direction are separated apart from one another on center by about 1-15/16".
Going this direction, they're separated apart from one another on center by about 1-3/8". Each hole has a 1/4" diameter. There's four holes total. Mounting hardware not included. That's going to do it for today's look at the Paneloc Slam Latch with the Cover.

The latches are a quality product and just the right size for my application (albeit, unique).

Great hardware which is built solid. It replaced a slide bolt and offers a much more secure latch. A fair price and quick delivery. I'm very happy with etrailer. I'm also very pleased with the video that accompanied the search for the slam latch. It gave a more concise idea of what I was buying.
The company had the product I needed. The shipping was fast and on time. When installing the product I had an issue. I reached out to seller. They responded. The seller worked with me through the problem. Even offered to refund my money. As I looked more into my issue. I realized I made a mistake when installing the produce. I contacted the seller and apologized for my mistake. I also thanked them for the good customer service and the willingness to refund my money. This is what good business is all about. Satisfying there customers above and beyond. Thank you very much.
