Description
Overview:
This spring bolt latch (MPN 763 129) is a compact, zinc-plated catch designed for securing doors, tailgates, drop-sides and ramps on trailers, plant bodies and utility vehicles. It uses a 12 mm diameter tapered pin to help the bolt locate cleanly into a keeper or catch, reducing the effort needed to align panels in day-to-day use. The main bolt length is 135 mm, with a positive spring action and a defined 28 mm stroke to hold the fastener engaged under vibration. The zinc-plated finish offers durable corrosion resistance in road and site environments. Intended for post-mounted catch arrangements, it can be paired with a compatible keeper where required. Commonly used across general trailer body fittings, transport bodies and site equipment where a robust spring-loaded shoot bolt is needed.
