Military Applications
Meet protection requirements for your military nondestructive testing application by installing pressure release latches on doors, vents, or equipment covers. These pressure release latches create a positive seal on doors to prevent heat, gases, and particles from escaping during normal operations. If an explosion or implosion occurs, the latches automatically release to let excess pressure escape.
Pressure release latches are also easy to install on cargo containers of any size, allowing safer transport of hazardous cargo by military aircraft.
Material choice depends on your application and installation environment. Cast iron and carbon steel are the most cost-effective options but should only be used where corrosion isn’t a concern. Outdoor installations or those involving exposure to chemicals or acids will require a corrosion-resistant stainless-steel latch.
Brixon pressure release latches come in release forces from 3.9 to 285 lbs., depending on the model and style selected. Always consider the installation, equipment type, and industry requirements before selecting a latch model.
