Closure latch clamp 363 — Galvanised hook latch clamp by Kukamet, horizontal base

Closure latch clamp 363 is a compact, hook-equipped latch designed for secure closures in fixtures, jigs and light production assemblies where a sturdy, repeatable hold is required

• Galvanised finish for corrosion resistance
• Horizontal base for flush mounting
• Hook-equipped latch for secure holding
• 1,500 N clamping force, 1,725 N holding force

Consistent clamping performance for repetitive tasks

The latch offers consistent clamping through a maximum clamping capacity of 1,500 N, backed by a holding force rated at 1,725 N. This ensures repeatable closure behaviour when used in fixtures and assembly stations, reducing rework and downtime. The specified forces are measured peak values; the mechanical design converts lever movement into reliable pressure at the hook, which is particularly important for operations that require steady retention rather than continuous heavy loading. The compact design keeps mass low while maintaining structural rigidity.

Robust finish and simple mounting reduce lifecycle costs

Constructed from galvanised steel, the unit resists corrosion in workshop environments and is suitable for periodic cleaning without losing function. The horizontal base enables flush installation on benches and plates, saving space and simplifying jig layout. Mounting takes place via standard fastenings to the horizontal foot, allowing quick integration into existing fixtures. The corrosion-resistant finish and uncomplicated mounting lower maintenance needs and contribute to a longer service life compared with uncoated alternatives.

Practical applications and compatibility explained

This latch is intended for use in light industrial clamping, jigs, doors and access panels where a hook-equipped closure is advantageous. It is not a primary structural fastener but serves to lock or secure components during handling, transport or light machining setups. The unit’s low weight and compact footprint make it easy to incorporate into manual and semi-automatic stations. For applications requiring continuous heavy clamping or vibration-prone environments, consideration of additional securing methods is advised.

Safe use and maintenance guidance

Regular inspection of the latch mechanism and mounting points preserves performance: check the hook engagement, fasteners and the galvanised surface for damage or excessive wear. Simple lubrication of pivot points maintains smooth action and avoids stickiness that could impair clamp cycle reliability. If replacement parts are required, refer to the catalogue PDF for component references and ensure replacement parts match the original specifications to retain the rated 1,500 N clamping and 1,725 N holding capacities.
