Spring Catches, also called Ball Stud Receivers, were originally developed for latching aircraft access doors, inspection panels, sealing strips and other similar assemblies that require repeated disengagement. Due to their versatility, they are now used extensively in other fields from securing kitchen cabinet doors to removable toe plates to electronic cabinets to protective covers, and more.

The Ball Stud Receiver affords no direct contact between the stud and panel surfaces. It prevents paint and porcelain wear or chipping that could result in corrosion. Serrated Spring Catches are ideal where adjustability or wide latching ranges are required. They are used mainly for attaching compressed materials such as rubber, fabric, and insulation. When latched, the spring legs of these clips bear inward on the stud and snugly hold the latched unit against the panel.
