Saving Time latches Applications
Case Stories
1. Night viewers on helicopter helmet
A customer was challenged with the fact that his existing supplier was not able to supply anymore a latch, it was part number TL115AX or TL115-AX.
With the SAV design team we looked for the most standard product that was look-alike. We could therefore suggest the cheapest solution, and had only to do:
- Change of place where holes are drilled
- Make the handle of the SAV63 with secondary lock latch shorter
- Add an extra black zinc plating as requested by the customer
- The customer requested also to have a specific change of one of the properties of the latch, change an M5 to an M4 thread.
- We had to come up with new tooling to do that but it was acceptable in pricing, only 2000 euros.
2. Swimming pool
The application is to fix the cover of a swimming pool. The customer required latches that are adjustable and needed a special draw hook which we tooled up.
3. Holding a lid down
What the customer wanted was technically not possible, however we suggested our 90° angle latches. We have suggested the SAV1015 series rigid latches and SAV15 series spring equipped latches.

we had another project for diving equipment, though the application was to have a housing where the diver could put his own mobile in.
therefore we suggested the latch V934L01-1x1BP which is much smaller
