Automatic locking mechanism for limited access application.
The PFAP™ panel fastener excels in applications requiring frequent access with limited clearance, which makes it ideal for compact equipment designs. The automatic locking mechanism eliminates the risk of accidental disengagement while the spring ompliance enhances vibration resistance – ensuring reliable performance in dynamic environments.
The slender design of the PFAP™ plunger saves valuable space in compact assemblies, and the effortless one-hand operation reduces service time and improves ergonomics for technicians working in areas with limited access.
Side lever actuation provides convenient connections when vertical space is limited
The PFQTL™ panel fastener addresses the limitations of traditional slide plungers by preventing accidental unlocking during vibration or mis-operation, providing superior reliability in demanding applications. The quarter-turn mechanism provides superior holding strength of the pin in the extended position compared to spring loaded designs while maintaining the convenience of toolfree operation, combining security with ease of use.
The positive engagement system of the PFQTL™ fastener gives operators confidence in secure attachment and reduces the risk of panel displacement during equipment operation – ensuring consistent performance throughout the service cycle.
