Sierra CL49310 Cam Lock, 5/8 Inch Depth Key Lock for Marine Lockers, Hatches and Compartments
The Sierra CL49310 is a 5/8 inch depth cam lock designed to secure lockers, hatches, compartments, and drawers aboard a boat or in similar storage applications. It is a key lock style with a metal construction built to hold up in a marine environment where cabinet hardware is exposed to moisture and regular use. The lock uses a 5/8 inch hole size and has a grip length of 1-1/4 inch measured from the center of the hole, with an offset of plus or minus 1/4 inch to accommodate the cam position needed for the installation. It is rated for a maximum panel thickness of 1/2 inch, making it suited to typical marine cabinet and hatch panel stock. Each unit measures 0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 inches and is supplied as a single piece.
This cam lock is commonly used to replace worn or broken locks on existing marine storage compartments, or to add locking capability to lockers, fish wells, equipment lockers, and hatch covers. Because it is a key lock, it provides secured closure rather than a simple latch, which is useful for compartments holding gear, electronics, or other items that should stay closed while underway.
