Default Latches on Flat Bed Truck Sides

Hi all

Anyone have the name and a link for those toggly type latch things on the
side of trucks?
I am thinking about the type where there is a pin with a toggling wedge.
The truck side hinges up and locates over the pin. The toggling wedge
rotates 90 degrees to secure.

Can anyone make sense of all that gibberish?

TIA

Phil

Or even AntiLuce all as one word, can be used on these. And Anti-Luce is
also used.

But you get the idea for a web search. :-)

Others have given the name, note that when latched the toggely bit needs
to be loose. If it's tight vibration works it up the ridges and eventauly
it flops over and is no longer secure. BTDTGTTS...

They are used on horse trailers and other farm type kit, Countrywide or
similar "farm shops" often stock them
