Need casement fastener for engine room

[enamorada]

Hi All. I am in need of 2 or 3 casement fasteners for the engine room doors. It is part number 84690 on Sam's part inventory list but it is no longer available. I reference the part number so you can see a picture. I still haven't figured out how to include a photo. Please let me know if anyone has any. My other options is to change them all out to a different style.

Thanks!!

Did you call Sam's to make sure? If so, did they have a recommended replacement solution? They usually do.

I have sorta the same animal on my 52c. I purchased some from sams about a year ago they did not fit they may be in my dock box. I will check next weekend if so they are yours. If you would like pm me your cell # i will take a pick and tex to you. If i do not have them i will tex you and say so. Not sure but seems mine had a knob reather than a round handle as the pick not sure.

They come up on ebay from time to time. I bought a couple there and still have one spare. But I'm not selling it.

I just replaced all of mine. Probably about six good ones. They are the satin chrome finish. I will be on my boat around March 1. I will check on them then. Better email me then to remind me.

What did you find to replace them with?

I believe I found them in the Restoration Hardware catalog. I was able to use the fixed latching plate on the bulkhead so these won't be available. When I get to the boat I can be more specific. I picked out the latch nearly a year ago which seems to be outside my short-term memory now.

I had hoped a friend in the foundry business could duplicate the old latches, but no dice. Even though I had tightly latched the single remaining latch on one ER door I came down from the flying bridge to find it slamming back and forth. Something had to be done.

Do you need replacements because the turn handle has separated from the base? A common problem. They can be repaired using a rivet and a wave washer.
