Install these locks on cabinet doors and file drawers with a smaller-than-standard diameter through hole. These locks are keyed alike, so they're good for applications where you need several locks to open with the same key.
Locks with a reversible offset cam can be mounted to reach two different latching distances.

L-Handle Slotted-Drive Cam Locks
For a simplified keying system, these cam locks open and close with a slotted screwdriver. Also called quarter-turn locks, they have a cam that rotates 90° to lock cabinet doors and other enclosures. A gasket prevents water, dust, and dirt from getting into the enclosure through the lock. This helps you maintain your sealed enclosure’s IP65 and NEMA 4 ratings.
These locks come with three cams, so you can choose between three different latching distances. Each individual cam has a fixed latching distance. Since you won’t have to adjust the cams into position, these locks are faster to install than those that have cams with an adjustable latching distance. Locks with a roller cam rotate more smoothly than those with straight and offset cams, making them easier to open and close. The cam won’t scratch or flake enclosure surfaces to protect electronics inside from paint or metal chips.

Grip and turn the ring handle to open and close doors and drawers, then fold it out of the way when you are done. Also known as quarter-turn latches, these latches have an arm that rotates 90° to secure enclosures. They come with a reversible offset cam that has an adjustable latching distance. Best for tasks when precise distances are unknown, they handle a wide range of latching distances. Adjust the position of the cam before you begin to install them.
