Dimensions: O.D.: 3"
Cut-Out: 2-1/2"
Surface Depth 1/8" - 3/4"

Detailed Description This is a fully non-locking T-style handle constructed entirely from white nylon (handle and body), offering a uniform, clean, non-metallic appearance that is highly resistant to corrosion, UV degradation, and chemicals. It includes a neoprene O-ring for sealing. No chrome plating is present, making it lighter and more economical for non-aesthetic-critical applications.
This variant prioritizes durability and low maintenance over a metallic finish.
Functions and Uses
Locking Variants
Whitecap offers locking versions of these T-style non-compression handles (e.g., SKUs like S-0226W for chrome-plated zinc/white nylon, or 3226W for all-white nylon; similar black nylon options exist). These are functionally identical in design and dimensions to the non-locking models but add a key-operated lock mechanism in the handle.

Chrome Plated Zinc/ White Nylon

Dimensions: O.D.: 3"
Cut-Out: 2-1/2"
Surface Depth 1/8" - 3/4"
Fastener: Included
SS Nut included
Detailed Description This is a fully non-locking T-style handle constructed entirely from white nylon (handle and body), offering a uniform, clean, non-metallic appearance that is highly resistant to corrosion, UV degradation, and chemicals.

- Overall outer diameter (O.D.): 3 inches
- Required cut-out/hole diameter: 2-1/2 inches
- Surface depth/thickness accommodation: 1/8" to 3/4"
- Thread: 3/8"-16
- Includes fastener/hardware (threaded offset cam bar with set screw, neoprene O-ring; stainless steel nut often included)
This variant prioritizes durability and low maintenance over a metallic finish.
Functions and Uses
- Primary function: Same as above-rotating T-handle engages the cam bar for secure latching and easy release.
- Common uses:
- Identical to the chrome-plated version: hatches, lockers, access panels, storage compartments on boats (especially where full corrosion resistance is preferred).
- Ideal for saltwater or harsh marine environments due to no metal plating that could corrode over time.
- Applications where a stealthy, all-white/low-visibility look is desired (e.g., matching white boat surfaces).
- General marine, RV, or utility panel latching where cost, weight, and weather resistance matter more than appearance.
- Benefits: Excellent corrosion and UV resistance, lightweight, economical, and maintains a consistent color without chipping or fading like plating might.
Locking Variants
Whitecap offers locking versions of these T-style non-compression handles (e.g., SKUs like S-0226W for chrome-plated zinc/white nylon, or 3226W for all-white nylon; similar black nylon options exist). These are functionally identical in design and dimensions to the non-locking models but add a key-operated lock mechanism in the handle.
Detailed Description
- Same core specs: 3" O.D., 2-1/2" cut-out, 1/8"-3/4" surface depth, 3/8"-16 thread, offset cam bar, neoprene O-ring, included fasteners.
- The T-handle includes a keyed cylinder (locking models are often keyed alike across units for fleet convenience).
- Materials: Chrome-plated zinc handle with white/black nylon body, or all-nylon (white or black).
Functions and Uses
- Primary function: Provides the same latching as non-locking versions but adds security via a key lock to prevent unauthorized opening.
- Common uses:
- Securing valuable storage areas, electronics compartments, fuel access panels, or personal lockers on boats where theft prevention is needed (e.g., cockpit storage, cabin access).
- Marine environments require tamper resistance, such as marinas or shared vessels.
- Replacement/upgrade for non-locking handles in high-security applications.
- Benefits: Enhanced security without changing installation or basic operation; key-alike feature simplifies management for multiple units.

The latch arm did not fit, but I used the old latch arm, and it worked.
