HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – 30 April
2019 – Southco Asia Ltd., a subsidiary of Southco Inc., a leading global
provider of engineered access solutions such as locks, latches, captive
fasteners, electronic access solutions and hinges/ positioning technology has recently
expanded on its successful line of mechanical actuators with a new version that
combines reliable actuation with modern design. Constructed of high-strength,
corrosion-resistant materials, the AC-11 Actuator features an ergonomic pull
handle that is ideal for remotely actuating a latch in heavy duty equipment
applications.

AC-11 Actuator

The AC-11
Actuator features an oval bezel that complements modern industrial styling and
a flush mount design that minimizes protrusion. The pull handle can be easily
actuated with a gloved hand, providing remote actuation of a latch in
challenging environments. Available in both locking and non-locking versions,
the AC-11 provides direct, single or multipoint actuation of a connected latch.
When combined with Southco R4 Rotary Latches and AC Cables, AC Actuators create
a complete Rotary Latching System that provides secure, reliable remote
latching for interior and exterior applications.

Product
Manager Cindy Bart adds, “Southco’s AC-11 Actuator is well-suited to
applications such as off-highway vehicles and industrial equipment with modern
aesthetics. The rounded edge provides a sleek look that complements
applications where both heavy duty operation and style are critical, while
providing dependable remote actuation of a connected latch”.
