Description
Overview:
Ramp Fastener Assembly (MPN 800 1148) for securing loading ramps, tailgates and access doors on plant, agricultural and commercial equipment. Manufactured from mild steel with a self colour (plain) finish, this assembly provides a robust mechanical latch point where a simple, positive fastening is required. Supplied as a complete unit comprising shank, handle and plate, it is suited to heavy service environments on bodies and frames where space is limited. The threaded section is M12 for straightforward integration with common hardware, and the compact body dimensions support use on steel fabrications, box sections and bracketry. Typical uses include keeping hinged ramps shut in transit, holding access panels closed on static machinery, and retaining doors on waste handling equipment. Dimensions are sized for trade replacement and new build applications, with overall length 125 mm (4.92 in), width 38 mm (1.50 in) and plate thickness 7.5 mm (0.30 in). The M12 threaded shank is 86.5 mm long (3.41 in), allowing adequate take-up through plates, ramp leaves or keepers. The self colour finish can be over-painted or otherwise finished to suit the host body or corrosion protection system.
