Holds together securely – the new DIRAK over center toggle latch made of polyamide
01. Requirements
An exciting solution
Over center toggle latches are used in many different areas of application. If, for example, a transport crate or a machine housing is to be sealed, functionality is always the top priority. But simply closing the door is no longer enough these days. Design and the cost factor are also increasingly coming into focus.
The new DIRAK over center toggle latch made of polyamide closes flaps and covers securely and safely. Due to the given material properties, the latch is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. In addition to its elegant design, the over center toggle latch made of polyamide is an attractively priced solution.

When closing the clamping mechanism, a dead center is overcome, whereby the over center toggle latch is securely locked in the closed state. The leverage effect ensures that a lot of holding force is achieved with little manual force.
Segment cutting edge
In a countersunk hole, the segment cutting edge makes electrical contact with the metallic base material. The double-sided design of the segment cutting edge guarantees safe equipotential bonding. When cutting the lacquer layer up to max. 170µm, no paint chips are produced in the countersink. The segment cutting edge and the scraping tooth increase the underhead friction both in a counterbore and in a cylindrical bore and thus increase the resistance to loosening in the fastener.
Scraping tooth
With a cylindrical hole, the double-sided, 90° offset scraping teeth ensure safe equipotential bonding on the edge of the sheet. By screwing them in, they scratch the painted edge up to max. 170μm of the hole and make electrical contact with the metal. The segment cutting edge centers the screw in the hole.
Metric thread-forming to DIN 7500
The non-circular cross-section and the slightly conical shape mean that chipless thread forming begins with the first turn of the screw. This hardens the surrounding material and forms the nut thread. The backlash-free seat provides safety against self-loosening under dynamic load. Chipless grooving eliminates the need for chip removal, thread cutting and additional nuts.
Metric
The standardized thread with metric dimensions and 60° flank angle can be easily screwed into the pre-cut thread.
