Push to latch, push to unlatch lock

Has anyone seen a supplier for a latch like this. The equipment manufacturer are no longer in business. The latch is purely mechanical but worn and no longer latching.

Worst case I'll fit a rotating cam lock.

For doors they are known as 'Tutch latches'. That is not misspelt, it's the company name.

Well that finally led me here.

I'd expect the wear parts to be steel so could likely be repaired easily enough. The catch plate has a visible wear but could likely be rotated which may be adequate.

The latch pin looks a little rounded, a blob of weld filed smooth would likely fix that.

Spring end bush is broken but unlikely to affect it in use.

I realise it may not be an economic use of your time if the part is cheap but atleast if the machine was urgently needed, it may be much quicker than waiting for delivery.

Got a quote, both parts in shipping £25, since not urgent, I'll go down that route.
