MOUNTING DIMENSIONS THICK METAL CASE
Latch:
S1125-2S-1.000/6-32
The thickness of component ‘C’ allows counter sinking to
recess the screw head. This ‘build-up’ also is approx. .187";
again, a proper ‘Setback’ is 1.000".
MOUNTING DIMENSIONS THIN METAL CASE
Latch:
S1125-2S-1.000/6-32
The above illustrates how dimpling the hole in component
‘A’ to flush mount the screw head adds to the ‘build-up’, in
this case .187"; therefore, the proper ‘Setback’ is 1.000".
When using a slot as a Receiver, the ‘Reach’* of the S1125 Latch hook is 1.187"/30.2mm.
Where the ‘build-up’ of the components being joined is approximately .187"/4.8mm as is shown in these applications,
this dimension is subtracted from the ‘Reach’ to determine the ‘Setback’ of the Latch; i.e.: 1.187" – .187" = 1.000",
which is the ‘Setback.’ This results in a Latch part no.: S1125-2S-1.000.
To order factory installed nut inserts, add ‘/6-32’ to the part no.; i.e.: S1125-2S-1.000/6-32. Other applications using Slot Receivers
having different ‘build-ups’ necessitate selecting appropriate ‘Setbacks’ to maintain the Spring Hook ‘Reach’.
