592 heavy-duty magnetic catch from EPCO is a catch and strike set designed to hold doors or panels closed with a rated pull force of 13 lb. That pull force rating shows how firmly the magnet resists opening, which helps keep doors from drifting or rattling under normal use. The catch uses magnets that rotate within the casing to maintain maximum contact to the strike, so the magnetic faces stay aligned as the door closes and the pull is used efficiently. The magnet housing measures 47/64 in. high, 1 in. deep, and 2-1/16 in. long, giving a compact body that fits many cabinet or casework layouts. The matching strike plate measures 3/4 in. high and 1-1/8 in. long, providing a defined contact surface for the rotating magnets to grab consistently.
The magnet housing dimensions of 47/64 in. high, 1 in. deep, and 2-1/16 in. long give clear limits for where this catch can sit on a cabinet rail or case edge, which helps during layout on new work or retrofits. The 3/4 in. high by 1-1/8 in. long strike plate dimension defines the footprint on the mating door or panel, so reveals and edge distances can be planned around a known contact patch. The 13 lb pull force rating ties the compact size to a specific holding performance, helping match this catch to doors where a clearly defined closing force is needed.
This EPCO 592 heavy-duty magnetic catch sits in the broader locks and latches, catches category, which aligns it with applications where a magnet-based hold-down is preferred over a mechanical latch. The aluminum magnet housing sized at 47/64 in. high, 1 in. deep, and 2-1/16 in. long lets the catch mount along cabinet frames, shelves, or case interiors without taking much visual space, which is useful when hardware needs to stay out of sight lines. The matching strike plate at 3/4 in. high and 1-1/8 in. long provides a simple flat landing area on the door or panel, so the rotating magnets can seat cleanly when the door is brought closed against the case. Together, the defined housing and strike plate dimensions support planning layouts where the catch tucks behind the door edge yet still presents enough metal for reliable contact.
The specified 13 lb pull force for this heavy pull force magnetic catch sets an expected resistance to opening once the door is closed, which can reduce nuisance opening from normal handling. That clear rating gives a basis for choosing this part when a firm but manual-open closure is needed. The rotating magnets within the casing are designed to maintain maximum contact to the strike, so the magnetic faces can self-align as the door closes, which helps compensate for small variances in door angle or reveal. By keeping strong contact across more of the magnet surface, the catch makes fuller use of the rated pull force rather than relying on a narrow edge contact. This behavior supports repeatable closing feel across multiple doors fitted with the same EPCO 592-P unit, which can be important when trying to keep a run of casework operating with similar effort.
The EPCO 592 heavy-duty magnetic catch provides a rated pull force of 13 lb, which indicates how firmly it holds a door or panel closed under normal use.
The magnet housing measures 47/64 in. high, 1 in. deep, and 2-1/16 in. long, so installers can plan mounting positions within rails or case interiors using those dimensions.
The strike plate measures 3/4 in. high and 1-1/8 in. long, defining the contact area on the door or panel where the rotating magnets seat.
The heavy pull force magnets rotate within the casing to maintain maximum contact to the strike, which supports consistent holding power even with minor door misalignment.
The 592 heavy-duty magnetic catch has an aluminum housing, providing a light, rigid body that positions the magnet reliably relative to the strike plate.
The 13 lb pull force rating ties this magnetic catch to a defined holding strength, helping align the catch choice with doors that need a firm manual-open closure.
The EPCO 592 heavy-duty magnetic catch with aluminum housing and 13 lb pull force provides a clearly rated solution for magnet-based door closure. With its rotating magnets designed to maintain maximum contact to the strike and known housing and strike plate dimensions, this catch offers predictable behavior when laid out across cabinets or casework. For projects where a compact magnetic catch with specified pull and defined mounting footprints is needed, the 592-P configuration offers a straightforward way to match holding strength and layout demands.
