Kason 10172c00006 Mechanical Magnetic Door Latch

Product Description

The KASON 10172c00006 is a mechanical magnetic door latch with a chrome finish, designed for commercial refrigeration and food service equipment. This latch uses magnetic force to hold doors securely closed, reducing wear on door gaskets and frames compared to traditional mechanical-only latches. It is intended for installation by refrigeration technicians and commercial kitchen equipment service professionals working on walk-in coolers, reach-in refrigerators, freezers, and similar cold storage units.

This latch is suited for commercial food service environments where reliable door closure is critical for maintaining temperature integrity and food safety compliance. It is a common replacement part for aging or failed latches on commercial refrigeration cabinets. The chrome finish provides corrosion resistance in humid cold-storage environments. Installation is typically performed during scheduled preventive maintenance or in response to a failed or weakened latch mechanism.

Key Features

• Mechanical magnetic design holds doors securely without relying on friction alone
• Chrome finish resists corrosion in cold and humid refrigeration environments
• Designed for commercial-grade refrigeration and food service door applications
• OEM-style replacement for straightforward serviceability

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified refrigeration or commercial kitchen equipment technicians. Power down any electrically connected components and allow the unit to reach a safe working temperature before beginning service. Use standard hand tools for mounting hardware removal and installation. Verify door alignment and gasket seating after latch installation to ensure a proper seal and efficient unit operation.
