Dual-Stage Sacrificial Notches for Extra-Long Euro Cylinders (>90mm)

Engineering Overview: Engineering guide on dual sacrificial anti-snap cuts for long Euro cylinders (90mm to 130mm), preventing compound bending attacks.

Technical & Engineering Specifications

Feature Dual Sacrificial Anti-Snap V-Grooves
Material Solid H59 Brass with 40Cr Alloy Steel Spine
Standard TS007 3-Star / Sold Secure Diamond
Cylinder Lengths 90 mm to 130 mm Extra-Long Profiles

Extended Cylinder Snapping Risk

Extra-long cylinders (e.g. 45/55 mm or 50/60 mm) provide high clamping leverage. A single anti-snap cut near the face can still leave 30 mm of exposed metal after snapping.

Dual Sacrificial Line Architecture

  • Primary Notch (12 mm from face): Breaks during light attacks.
  • Secondary Notch (25 mm from face): Fractures during heavy lever attacks, ensuring the remaining core stays completely flush with the escutcheon.
