Description

Buying Advice:

This is the replacement latch for all drums.  This will work for you if you’ve damaged your latch, or lost the T section of the latch.  Simply requires drilling out the old riveted latch and bolting in this new latch with supplied bolts.

This new latch also replaces the old pin and chain lid closing system which is no longer present on new drums (post 2008).  This new latch permits one-handed operation while opening and closing the drum.  Substantially easier loading and unloading.  We are recommending at this time that everyone remove the chain/pin from their existing drum with a screwdriver and keep in a safe place in the event that a reinstallation becomes necessary.  All new drums will ship with this new latch only.
