The ML731-1 rod control lock is designed for industrial enclosure doors that need multi-point locking from a single handle. The lock drives top and bottom connecting rods through a rod box assembly, so the door is secured at several points along its edge with one 90° turn of the swing handle.
The housing is zinc alloy finished in black powder coating, with a K06 keyed cylinder for access control. The cam and rod box assembly are galvanized steel for long service life, and the lock is rated IP54 against dust and splashing water.
Typical applications include distribution cabinets, telecom enclosures, control panels and machinery cabinets. Dimension drawings and the cut-out template are provided below.
