Hi Gang

 I took the attached photo at my work place, it is  on a FORTE metal band saw; I think it is German built.

 Does anyone know where I can purchase this spring  toggle latch; this latch will work in many different applications.

 I looked at the FORTE parts list but they have only  one size, 6 inches long, which is too big, I also found spring toggles on the  web but they are not what I am looking for.

 I am looking for smaller sizes than the 6  inches.

 Thank you in advance,

 Bill Vincent

Bill, Try McMaster Carr (mcmaster.com) pages 2896-2900. They're listed as draw latches or tension latches. I didn't see one exactly like the picture, but many that perform in the same way.

 Have you tried Southco?  They sell many different types of latches.

I'm sure McMasters will have a good selection, but Neilsen (?) in Hartford CT has some nice SS ones too
