A well tried quick release fastener, which can be expected to give absolute reliability despite usage and subjection to large forces.
Reliable and user friendly despite vibration, tensile loads up to 10,000 N and extreme environmental conditions like dirt and oil.
Only 2 components to be mounted:
The fastener - supplied assembled and adapted for the required grip range - is put in through a hole in the panel and secured against loss by a retaining washer.
The receptacle is attached to the frame centrally under the through hole, by means of rivets or screws.
Function
To close, turn the fastener 90° to the right under firm axial pressure. This causes the cross pin of the stud to ride up on the cam of the receptacle, engages in a notch and lead to a positive connection.
To open, the stud is turned 90° to the left, whereby the cross pin of the stud is disengaged and pushed out of the receptacle by the unbending of the belleville spring washer.
