It is molded from UV resistant black nylon, giving it long-term resistance to sun exposure and saltwater environments without becoming brittle or discolored over time. The latch's twist action holds the windshield door firmly closed, preventing the rattling and vibration that can loosen fittings and wear hardware during high-speed running.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis single wing configuration measures 1-9\/16 inches in total length with a 5\/8 inch tab height and a 1\/8 inch tab lift (the distance from the bottom of the latch to the bottom of the tab), making it a compact fitting suited to standard boat windshield door frames. Because it is made from molded nylon rather than metal, it will not corrode or develop rust stains on surrounding gelcoat or hardware, and it stays lightweight for repeated opening and closing. Each latch is a single-count unit for one latch point; buyers replacing multiple points on a windshield door should order the quantity needed to match their existing hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sea-Dog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 324110-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Wing Windshield Latch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Injection molded nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-9\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTab Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTab Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTab Lift:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.024 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 035514324014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUniversal fit for boat windshield doors using a single wing twist latch of this size; not model-specific.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo OEM cross-reference numbers are specified for this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Sea-Dog 324110-1 used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a single wing windshield latch that secures boat windshield doors closed with a simple twist action, preventing them from rattling loose from engine vibration at high speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is this latch?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sea-Dog 324110-1 measures 1-9\/16 inches in total length, with a tab height of 5\/8 inch, a tab width of 3\/16 inch, and a tab lift of 1\/8 inch from the bottom of the latch to the bottom of the tab.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the 324110-1 latch made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made of injection molded nylon that is UV resistant, so the black finish holds up to sun exposure without becoming brittle or fading like some plastics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this latch corrode or rust?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. Because the Sea-Dog 324110-1 is molded nylon rather than metal, it will not corrode or rust in saltwater or marine air, unlike metal windshield hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this come in a pair for both sides of the windshield door?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 324110-1 is sold as a single latch unit.
