Anyone ever find these in bulk in stainless steel?

Thanks. Another place too...stealing this from a member's post on FB... only issue is $150 minimum order for online orders. Maybe orders can also be placed via phone. The current prices are also slightly higher than listed below, but still pretty cheap.

Have only been able to find the zinc plated ones that fit. Updated mine today. I will be happy if they last 10 years.

New versus old in the attached below - used short 1/8 inch pop rivets.

Here is where I got them: https://www.thehardwarecity.com/getProd ... ku=T013583

Looks good!

(I still need to do that on mine.)

Got mine at VTS.

The link in my previous post does not work any longer. I went to Essentra's site to look for that latch but it appears that they no longer have it.

However, McMaster-Carr has it.... $4.55/ea, no minimum.

looks the same as

https://www.vintagetrailersupply.com/St ... ts-720.htm

Its $3.25 per vs $7.99 at VTS. Only issue is that there there is a Minimum order of $150

Is there any interest in doing a group buy, has this forum done one before, is it allowed?

I made an inquiry to Essentra and the NSH-2273. That product is now listed at Reid Supply....

Stainless, $5.99/ea, no minimum order. Looks like a good quality product.

Reid Supply is owned by Essentra, but a separate entity again.

I’d be interested in doing a group buy. We would need to purchase 47 latches to meet the 150 mark. I’ll have to check, but I think my 30R has 16 or 18 latches total.
