    Default Systainer locking latch

    Does anyone know where I can source some replacement systainer locking latched in Australia? I could get Just Tools to order them in for me but would rather deal with someone who already has them. It is the old style that I am after and preferably in blue.

    Somewhat off line, but Lee Valley sell black locking latches for both old and new model Systainers - great for stopping someone from 'borrowing' your tools and even more so the accessories from the box. But definitely not local but very reliable.

    Thanks guys. I had seen those links and others as well an the best price I could find was $8.18 USD for a pack of 4 plus postage. I was in Just Tools today and just grabbed a pack of 4 for $33.00.

    I also bought a new pad for my ROS and old mate was telling me he can discount up to 15% on some accessories but nothing on tools. I was under the impression that discounting was over and done with on Festool. They also had some discounted drills and it turns out that he could discount them as they are not in the current catalogue (last year's models). For those visiting the store the price tags with blue highlighter on them are not eligible for any discount.

    I tried to order some last December. I even supplied the part number for the ancient Festool Blue latches. No longer available. Only the Festool Green, and the Light Grey. I actually found a Sys2 with a blue latch today at work in the back of a storage room. I laughed. still had the insert, Decal everything. But no tool
