About Cam Latches and Locks

Washdown Slotted-Drive Cam Locks
Help keep your sealed enclosure's contents safe from dust and water damage—these locks help maintain an enclosure's IP or NEMA rating for washdowns. All open with a slotted screwdriver, so they’re good for areas where you don’t want a complicated keying system.
Locks with a fixed latching distance are best when you know the precise distance you need. Since you won’t have to adjust the cam into position, these are faster to install than those with an adjustable latching distance. Locks with multiple latching distances include multiple cams, so you can change the fixed latching distance.

Triangle-Drive Cam Locks
Open these locks with a triangle key—it’s more secure than a hex key or screwdriver, yet still matches a common keying system for industrial enclosures and other machinery.
Locks with a fixed latching distance are best when you know the precise distance you need. Since you won’t have to adjust the cam into position, they’re faster to install than locks with an adjustable latching distance. They come with multiple cams to accommodate different latching distances.
Style A have a low profile and Style F are flush with the surface, so they won’t catch on anything that passes by. The back of the lock may project further into your enclosure than locks with a standard profile.
All have a gasket that keeps dust and water from getting in through the lock. This helps you maintain your sealed enclosure’s IP or NEMA rating. IP65 rated locks seal out water from low-pressure washdowns.

Washdown L-Handle Cam Latches
Stop water from getting into your enclosure through the latch during low-pressure washdowns. These latches have a gasket that helps maintain your sealed enclosure's IP65 or NEMA rating. Also known as quarter-turn latches, they have a cam that turns 90° to hold your enclosure shut. Select the turn direction when mounting the cam. All come with multiple cams to accommodate different latching distances.

Washdown Wing-Handle Padlockable Cam Latches
A gasket helps keep dust and water from washdowns or brief submersions from entering through the latch. This helps you maintain your sealed enclosure's IP or NEMA rating. It’s harder to snag straps and other items on these wing-handle latches than on T- or L-handle latches. They have a cam that rotates to secure your enclosure.
These latches include multiple cams, so you can change their fixed latching distance. Since you won’t have to adjust the cams into position, these latches are faster to install than those with an adjustable latching distance.
