Technical & Engineering Specifications

Material H59 Solid Extruded Brass
Exterior Face 100% Solid Unmachined Brass Faceplate

Zero Exterior Purchase Architecture

Blind-Ended Cylinders (Blank-End Profile Cylinders) feature a completely smooth, solid brass exterior face with no keyway opening or broaching.

Maximum Burglary Elimination

  • Anti-Vandalism: Because the exterior is completely solid brass, lock picking, bumping, drilling, and plug-pulling attacks are physically impossible from outside.
  • Internal Operation: Operated exclusively from the interior via a high-torque thumbturn or key.
  • Ideal Application: Secondary deadbolts on panic rooms, jewelry vaults, and perimeter exit gates.
