Marine Slam Latches

Marine slam latches combine a recessed pull handle with an impact-style locking tongue: push the hatch closed and the latch engages automatically, leaving a clean, low-profile surface that resists snagging on deck.

Built for ship hatches, yacht inspection doors, RV compartments, trailer toolboxes, and outdoor equipment enclosures, these boat hatch latches offer vibration resistance, anti-loosening geometry, and corrosion protection up to 720 h neutral salt spray. Stainless steel, chrome-plated, and black powder-coated versions suit high-frequency use in harsh marine environments.
