National Mfg N348-946 Ss Barrel Bolt 2.5 Inches

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N348-946 is a 2.5-inch stainless steel barrel bolt designed for securing lightweight doors, chests, cabinets, and similar enclosures. The bolt slides into a fixed strike to hold a door or panel closed, providing a simple and reliable mechanical latch. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and surface degradation in both indoor and light outdoor environments. The package contains 3 units, making it practical for multi-point latch installations or multiple service calls from a single purchase.

This barrel bolt is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a low-profile sliding latch is needed on cabinet doors, access panels, chests, or interior lightweight doors. It can be mounted for right-hand or left-hand door swings without modification, providing installation flexibility across varied job conditions. When installed vertically, the notch in the case captures and holds the bolt in the locked position, eliminating the need for a separate strike in that orientation.

Key Features

• Stainless steel body resists corrosion for long service life
• 2.5-inch bolt length suits lightweight doors, cabinets, and chests
• Right- or left-hand installation compatible without additional hardware
• Notch-in-case design holds bolt locked in vertical mounting applications
• Sold in a 3-unit pack for multi-point or multi-location installs

Compatibility

Designed as a surface-mount barrel bolt for lightweight interior doors, cabinet doors, storage chests, and access panels where a sliding latch-style fastener is appropriate.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed with standard hand tools including a drill and screwdriver. Mount the bolt body to the door or panel face and align the strike to the jamb or frame before fastening. Confirm proper bolt-to-strike alignment before final tightening to ensure smooth operation. No special trade license is required for standard cabinet or door hardware installation.
