We build custom instrumentation for large telescopes – often this instrumentation requires removable cover panels. In some situations, it is highly desirable to be able to remove and install these covers quickly with retained fasteners. In some situations, tool-less access is also desirable.
The Turnlock Push Button MPP-Series is a type of fastener used for detaching and attaching panels. It features a simple push-to-open and push-to-close system. The MPP-series includes components such as the receptacle, nut, and washer, which work together to secure panels in place. The receptacle is mounted to the frame, held in place by a hex nut, while the fastener mounts through the panel and frame into the receptacle, locking into position.,
