HONG KONG, CHINA -�Media
OutReach�- 16 October 2019 - Southco has extended
its successful line of captive hardware with a new version that features
lever-actuated operation for faster and easier latching and unlatching of
electronic components. Southco's compact lever-actuated 56 Spring-Loaded
Plunger offers an improved grip for simplified hand operation and saves time
when installing or removing components in tight spaces.

Lever Actuated 56 Spring-Loaded Plunger

Southco's lever-actuated 56 Spring-Loaded Plunger boasts a useful
hold-open feature when the lever is actuated, providing clear visual
confirmation when the plunger is unlatched and keeping the plunger in a
retracted position for easy removal. Actuated with a single motion, the lever-actuated 56 Spring-Loaded Plunger saves
time in comparison to current round knob, hold-open versions requiring a
two-step lift and turn operation to unfasten. Additionally, the lever-actuated
56 Spring-Loaded Plunger is available in prism colors for differentiation
between application zones and is available in thread-in, flare-in and press-in
installation options.

Global Product Manager Jim Grady adds, "The
easy to grip lever-actuated 56 Spring-Loaded Plunger provides quick hand
operation for latching and unlatching, facilitating the installation and
replacement of components used in various electronics applications including
HDD carriers, metal trays and power supplies."
