High-Pressure Blast Mitigation
Criminals inject explosive gases or fluids into keyways to blow cylinders out of ATM safes and bank vaults.
Pressure Venting Architecture
- Radial Relief Vents: Precision micro-channels in the cylinder body vent explosive gas pressures safely outward.
- Blast Retention: Prevents explosive shockwaves from shearing the central M5 retaining screw, keeping the deadbolt locked.
Frequently Asked Engineering & Selection Questions
Q1: How do pressure relief channels protect bank lock cylinders?
They vent explosive gases safely to the outside, preventing the blast pressure from blowing the lock core out of the safe door.
