Quick-assembly latches with recessed key CQT.FM (patented) are suitable for steel plates with thickness ranging from 1 to 2 mm and are generally used to allow a faster mounting of said plates on doors.
The latch is inserted in the mounting hole of the door on the lever side (see drawing) until the wings of the elastic washer snap in, ensuring complete fastening. The latches are supplied with assembled lever for faster mounting. Where needed, the latch can be disassembled from the inside of the door by means of a disassembling tool (to be ordered separately).
CQT-FM latches are available in two versions: black polyamide-based technopolymer, certified self-extinguishing UL AE-V0 or chrome-plated technopolymer.
With its refined look, the chrome-plated CQT.FM-CR range is particularly suited for use in situations where frequent cleaning cycles are needed for hygienic reasons, also with the use of water sprays or steam. The chrome-plated surface is resistant to wear, scrapes and shocks. Laboratory tests carried out at ambient temperature (23°C) proved the resistance of the latch surface to: detergents, acetone, ethyl alcohol, formic acid, chlorine solutions.
Keys are made of black polyamide-based technopolymer and are available for the triangular profile (CQT/T) or with two wings (CQT/A).
