The Ocean Accessories M1-2A-13-5 is a low-profile, push-to-close pop-out knob latch constructed from durable ABS plastic in a natural black finish. Designed for single round-hole installation, this latch is well-suited for marine, automotive, aerospace, RV, and industrial enclosure applications where a clean, flush appearance and reliable latching are required.
The knob sits flush with the panel surface when not in use, then pops out on demand to provide a secure, confident grip for opening. The latch holds firmly whether the knob is pressed in or popped out, and a V-shaped pawl enables smooth, easy-open and easy-close operation. A fixed grip keeper accommodates perpendicular door and frame configurations.
