Food Industry Tight-Hold Square-Drive Cam Locks
Designed for food-processing and hygienic applications, these locks are FDA compliant for direct contact with food. They have a smooth finish and round edges, so there are no crevices for contaminants to collect in. A seal helps keep high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns and dust from entering through the lock. This helps you maintain an IP69K rating on sealed enclosures that are often used in food processing plants. Also known as compression cam locks, these locks create a tighter hold than a traditional cam lock, making them useful for doors that have a seal. Turn the head a quarter turn to lock, then turn it another quarter turn to create compression and minimize rattling from vibration.
Made of stainless steel, these locks won’t break down in areas that are constantly exposed to moisture. All of the cams in the locks have a fixed latching distance. Since you won’t have to adjust the cams into position, these locks are faster to install than those with an adjustable latching distance. Locks with straight and offset cams include multiple cams, so you can change the fixed latching distance.
These locks open with a square key, so they're more secure than locks that open with a hex or slotted driver yet still match a common keying system for industrial enclosures and other machinery. However, they’re less secure than other square-drive locks with a concealed design because the square sticking out from the lock is easier to tamper with using pliers.
