spring latches/bolts?????

[riclepp]

Hi All

Not sure what the things are, but I am hoping that one of you decent chaps may be able to point me in the right direction. I am looking for some spring loaded catches/bolts. The ones you pull and let go and they return back into the hole.....no idea what they are called.

Thanks in advanced.

Cheers

Richard

A google search on 'spring loaded bolt' shows what I think you are after, and they are available from most DIY type stores including screwfix et al.

Hi and thanks for the advice. Unfortunately it is not the ones showing the link. I'll keep looking though

So do you have some and want some more? If so could you post a picture of what you have, it might help us find some for you.
Or is this for a new project and you would like to use them on it?

Why not run some suitable search terms through google images. This tends to be very quick as you can scan the pictures to find the type of thing you are looking for.

No problem Rich,
I was just curious to learn what your meant by the term because all that I could find were the type that you said were not what you wanted.

I was interested in what you were after as well. Where did you get them from in the end?
