QCWEA Retractable Fasteners now available
Ideal for slide and door applications. No interference.
IMAO expands its One Touch Fastener line to include new QCWEA Retractable Knob Locking Fasteners.
This fastener locks and unlocks with a simple quarter turn of the knob and features a retractable shaft that raises out of the way when the knob is turned to the 'OFF' position. When in the unlocked position, the retractable feature allows the fastener to safely slide off from the base without interference, making it ideal for slide and door applications.
QCWEA fasteners are designed to be paired with a ball locking receptacle mounted to a base.
Turning the knob engages and disengages the ball lock mechanism in the shaft to lock and unlock from the receptacle.
The ball locking system in these fasteners provides up to 50N of clamping force and up to 150N of holding force.
The fastener is constructed entirely of stainless steel.
These fasteners also have a sensor detection capability that allows the locking condition to be confirmed when used in combination with Position sensor receptacles (sold separately).
