Peli Case Latch, Clip, Lock, Catch, Closure 24mm, Orange

Peli 1403-942-150SP case latch 24 mm – orange replacement latch

A protective case is only reliable when the lid stays locked every time. If a latch is cracked, loose, or missing, the case becomes a risk. This replacement latch restores the original closing function. It helps keep the lid aligned and the closure tension consistent. That improves day-to-day handling and transport safety.

This is the 24 mm latch in a high-visibility orange finish. Orange is practical for inspections and fleet management. It stands out on set, in warehouses, and in service vehicles. It also helps you notice wear or damage earlier. For many users, color-coded parts speed up maintenance.

Compatibility is the most important check

Match the part number and confirm your case model before ordering. This latch is the 24 mm version with part number 1403-942-150SP. It is used on several classic Peli case models. Some models have latch variations across production years. If you have a newer case generation, compare latch shape and width first. This quick check prevents downtime and unnecessary returns.

Compatible Peli cases

• Peli 1170
• Peli 1200
• Peli 1300
• Peli 1400 (typically cases manufactured until approx. 2008)
• Peli 1600 (typically cases manufactured until approx. 2007)

For Peli 1400 and Peli 1600, production year matters. If your case is from a newer run, compare your original latch to this part. Small geometry differences can affect fit and closing feel.

Why a fresh latch improves the whole case

Latches are high-cycle parts. They take force during every close and open. They also take stress during drops, stacking, and vibration. Over time, plastic can fatigue and lose stiffness. That can reduce closure tension and create uneven lid pressure. Replacing a latch restores predictable closure and safer handling. It also reduces the chance of accidental opening in transit.

Balanced closure improves how the lid sits on the seal. It helps the case close evenly. It also reduces small movements during long transport. For fragile equipment, those small movements can cause wear. A stable closure is a simple form of protection.

Orange is not only a color choice

In many workflows, visibility matters. Orange parts are easy to spot during quick checks. They are also easier to find in tool bags and spare kits. If you maintain several cases, orange helps standardize identification. It is also useful for training and handovers in teams.

Replacement guidance

Before you replace

Confirm the part number and measure the latch size. Check your case model against the compatibility list above. Inspect other latches for stress marks or looseness. If multiple latches show wear, replace them as a set. Balanced latch tension keeps the lid aligned.

During replacement

Work on a clean surface and keep small parts organized. Many cases reuse existing pins or fasteners. Hardware varies by case generation and configuration. That is why this listing focuses on the latch itself. Use hardware that matches your current setup.

After replacement

Close the lid and test the latch motion. The latch should engage smoothly and hold securely. Check lid alignment around the perimeter. Compare closing feel across all latches. If one latch feels much tighter, inspect for misalignment.

When to replace more than one latch

If one latch failed due to heavy use, others may be close. This is common on travel cases and fleet cases. Replacing latches in pairs often improves closure balance. It also reduces repeated service visits and downtime. For critical equipment, proactive replacement is a smart strategy.
