Flush Latches
I am looking for some flush latches for my oil door. I have found the Southco ones that break over center but what I am wanting are the simple spring loaded type with the lip that goes under and secures. I want them to have a a round push button as I have a couple of the rectangular ones already. I know these are probably staring at me as I flip through Spruce but I cannot locate them.
Thanks,

Camloc Oil door latch
The flush round spring-loaded button type is Camloc KM610.
You will find lots of info and pictures in other threads.
Some suppliers want $60-80 for these things, but there is a small outfit called B&B that sells them for $5. you can call them at 913-884-5930, or
Better yet,
I have 3 extra ones. Send me $7.50 (includes postage) and I'll ship you one of my extras.
edit to correct part number. The -64 (or other no.) I think refers to the latch depth.
I made a stainless steel latch plate for the shoulder of the latch to catch.

Steve, I need 2 if you are willing to part with them. Let me know and I will get the money headed your way.
Thanks,

Steve,
sent an email. I'll take the last one if you still have it and want to sell.
Thanks,
Tom H.

B&B
In case this thread is dug up sometime in the future... the owner of B&B Aircraft Supply is getting ready to retire later this year, and is trying to sell the business. Last I heard, it wasn't certain whether it would stay open under new management, sell off all the stock to another supplier, or close completely.
I sure hope it stays open, since it's great to be able to drive over there at lunch and pick up a few nutplates!

These are exactly like the ones I got from Steve. They do work well and are simple to install.
