Small locks for small cabinets
1 min read
Popularly known as mini-locks, EMKA's 1022 series of quarter-turn locks have the style and capability of their big brothers in a miniature package suitable for smaller cabinets, wall mount enclosures, access panels or other housings.
They are very useful where space and design limitations demand easy operation as well as a good level of rugged serviceability. The 1022 program locks are also available with additional sealing rings for applications where protection to IP65 is important and for dust environments a special cap can further improve sealing capability.
Mini-locks are quick to fit and feature either a standard 14mm square hole for nut fixing, or a 15x18mm double D hole suitable for spring fix lock bodies and so enabling extra quick installation in production situations (not to IP65).
In order to cover a wide range of operational needs the 1022 program can be supplied with cylinder locks/inserts to take square or triangular keys, or slotted for screwdriver opening. Often the wing knob design is preferred since it enables a greater turning/closure force for improved gasket pull-down and enhanced sealing. The wing knob style offers easier operation, when wearing gloves.
Since these locks are expected to be used in many variable applications, EMKA offer the 1022 in zinc die with black powder coat or chrome finish, as well as in stainless steel, or in reinforced polyamide.
