Elbow Catches 1-9/64 x 45/64 Bright Brass describes an EPCO solid brass catch sized for compact cabinet and casework doors, so it adds positive holding power without taking much space inside the cabinet. The catch size of 1-9/64 inch by 45/64 inch keeps the latch small, which helps when working in tight face-frame or interior clearances where larger hardware can interfere with shelves. The matching strike size of 7/8 inch length by 45/64 inch wide aligns the mating part to the same footprint, which simplifies layout when repeating the installation across multiple doors on a run. The bright brass finish comes from the solid brass construction, which provides a traditional appearance that matches brass hinges and knobs in many woodworking projects.
The EPCO elbow catch uses slotted holes in both the catch and the strike, which lets the installer set the hardware loosely, test the door action, and then shift each piece until the elbow seats with the right hold. The extra screw hole in the strike plate stops the plate from rotating on plastic laminate, which keeps the latch relationship steady even when the laminate surface offers little friction under the screws. The compact catch size of 1-9/64 inch by 45/64 inch works with the matching strike footprint, which simplifies aligning the parts along the door edge or cabinet framing so they meet squarely when the door closes.
The EPCO elbow catch in bright brass is listed in the locks and latches category under catches, which places it in typical cabinet and furniture applications where a small mechanical latch is needed to hold a door closed. The solid brass construction supports use in woodworking projects that already rely on brass hinges or pulls, which helps keep visible hardware finishes consistent across a run of cabinetry. The defined catch size of 1-9/64 inch by 45/64 inch pairs with the 7/8 inch by 45/64 inch strike size, which suits narrow door rails or light cabinet doors where large roller or magnetic units could crowd the frame. The extra screw hole feature on the strike plate is specifically called out for preventing spinning on plastic laminate, which makes this catch suited to laminate-faced casework where plate creep can otherwise affect latch function.
Both catch and strike having slots to provide adjustment give the installer fine control over final engagement, which is important when dialing in consistent closing feel across multiple doors on the same bank of cabinets. The slotted adjustment lets the catch be nudged closer or farther from the strike, which can correct for slight drilling variances so the elbow lands firmly without needing to relocate holes. The strike plate extra screw hole adds another fastener point, which helps the plate resist torsion on smooth plastic laminate while preserving the alignment set during install. The compact and clearly specified dimensions of the catch and strike offer predictable layout references, which supports shop jigs or measured setups when repeating the elbow catch position from door to door. With the EPCO manufacturer part number 1018-B tied to this bright brass solid brass design, replacements on future service calls can match the same geometry and adjustment pattern, which keeps door action consistent when swapping worn parts on existing cabinetry.
The EPCO 1018-B elbow catch is made of solid brass, which gives the catch and strike a metal body that maintains shape and latch engagement over repeated door use.
The elbow catch has slots on both catch and strike, which let the installer shift each part slightly so the elbow meets the strike cleanly and the door closes firmly.
The strike plate has an extra screw hole to prevent spinning on plastic laminate, which keeps the plate from rotating and holds the latch alignment steady on smooth surfaces.
The EPCO elbow catch body size is 1-9/64 inch by 45/64 inch, which defines a compact footprint that fits in tight cabinet spaces and near narrow door rails.
The strike plate size is 7/8 inch length by 45/64 inch wide, which keeps the mating surface small so it aligns with the catch without crowding the cabinet interior.
This elbow catch is listed under locks and latches in the catches product class, which identifies it as a cabinet latch component for holding doors closed.
The EPCO solid brass elbow catch with 1-9/64 inch by 45/64 inch body and matching compact strike gives a defined geometry for cabinet latching, which supports clean installations on both wood and plastic laminate casework. With slots on both catch and strike plus an extra screw hole in the strike plate to prevent spinning on plastic laminate, this 1018-B bright brass model provides the adjustment and holding pattern needed when setting up multiple doors on a job. Choose this catch when a small, adjustable brass latch from the EPCO line matches the cabinet hardware layout being built or serviced.
