AeroCatch Xtreme Plus Flush Locking Hood Latch Kit - Black - Part # 120-4100. Tagged as "the panel fastener for the 21st Century", AeroCatch has become the number one choice for major race teams the world over for securing bonnet, boot and other panels.

Graham Leo, sales manager of Specialty Fasteners & Components, the manufacturers of AeroCatch, says: "Listening to and working with our customers involved in offroad has given our engineers essential feedback that has enabled us to ruggedize the product to suit their tougher requirements". | AeroCatch Xtreme is easier and safer to use than the traditional "sliding pin" catches and is less hazardous for support crews.
