Magnetic catch 2-1/2 inch center to center from US Futaba is a square double type catch designed to hold doors or panels closed using magnetic pull. The 64mm center to center hole spacing sets the mounting points, which helps align the catch on your frame or carcass when laying out screw locations across multiple doors. A pull force of 6.6 lbs. (3 kg) defines how firmly the magnets hold, which matters when you want doors to stay shut under normal use without requiring excessive effort to open. The square double type layout provides two magnetic contact areas in a compact form, which supports more consistent engagement when the door edge is slightly off center. The white finish ties the catch into light-colored interiors visually, which helps it blend into white or light cabinetry and keeps the focus on the door faces rather than the hardware.
The 64mm center to center mounting dimension gives you a fixed reference when positioning the magnetic catch on a rail or stile, which streamlines layout when repeating the same setup across multiple openings. This consistent spacing helps match drilling or pilot patterns produced on a line borer or simple jig, which reduces marking time during installation. The square body of the double type catch defines a compact footprint, which allows you to locate it where stile width is limited yet still gain two magnetic contact points. With a rated pull force of 6.6 lbs. (3 kg), the catch provides a predictable holding feel, which supports planning for door weight and user expectations across similar cabinets.
This US Futaba magnetic catch sits in the locks and latches category under catches, which positions it as a component for holding doors or panels shut rather than locking them. The 2-1/2 inch (64mm) center to center hole spacing suits layouts where you want a standard distance between fasteners, which matches many cabinet and casework applications using metric or imperial references. Being a square double type catch, it offers two magnetic surfaces in one compact part, which suits door configurations where the contact point may vary slightly from cabinet to cabinet yet still needs reliable closure. The white finish allows it to blend into light interiors, which fits kitchens, closets, or built-ins where visible interior hardware should stay unobtrusive. When you need a defined pull force of 6.6 lbs. (3 kg), this part provides a specified holding value, which supports consistent feel when coordinating multiple doors in the same project.
The defined 64mm center to center dimension supports repeatable drilling patterns, which is useful when fixtures or simple jigs are used to speed up cabinet production. This known spacing helps keep the catch positioned the same distance from the case edge each time, which supports uniform door gap and magnet engagement across a run. The square double type configuration offers two magnetic contact areas, which can help maintain holding power even when door alignment varies slightly due to jobsite conditions. With the pull force specified at 6.6 lbs. (3 kg), you gain a predictable level of resistance, which helps standardize how doors feel when opened in different rooms or banks of cabinets. The white finish adds a defined color option, which supports matching to white cabinetry schemes so interior components remain visually consistent from cabinet to cabinet.
