Grabber Panel Latches

A great latching mechanism for sliding door or clamshell compartment door applications. A dual-pawl design provides double the gripping power and keeps the latch centered on the "T"-shaped striker. Simple push-to-close action engages both pawls around striker and holds fast, despite forces applied by twisting or torque.
