Type 235 cam body is a surface mounted lock for locking doors or drawers, so it gives a straightforward way to secure cabinet fronts without mortising. This CompX Timberline Lock cylinder body has 3/4 inch long cylinders, which suits common cabinet door and drawer thicknesses where shallow backset space is important. The lock body requires a 16.5 mm diameter bore hole, so the installer can plan drilling with a precise bit size for repeatable fit across multiple openings. Horizontal mount layout supports applications where the cylinder needs to sit level across the cabinet face. The tough nylon housing surrounds the cylinder body, which helps the lock resist everyday cabinet use in woodworking environments. The key rotates 180 degrees, allowing full throw of the cam. Key removable in both locked and unlocked positions supports shared-use situations where the key is not retained at the lock.
This Type 235 cam body uses a horizontal mount, so the cylinder axis runs parallel to the cabinet top edge, which helps align the cam path with the matching strike position on the door or drawer frame. The lock body requires a 16.5 mm diameter bore hole, giving a clear drilling dimension for dedicated bits or line-boring setups in a cabinet shop. With 3/4 inch long cylinders, the assembly fits typical cabinet fronts without projecting far into the interior, which is useful where shelves or contents sit close behind the door. The surface mounted lock housing then sits against the interior face around the bore, tying the cylinder, housing, and strike alignment into one predictable layout.
This CompX Timberline Lock Type 235 cam body functions as a surface mounted lock for locking doors or drawers, so it fits cabinet projects where a deadbolt-style action is needed on face-frame or frameless casework. The horizontal mount orientation places the cylinder along the width of the panel, matching layouts where the strike is set opposite the hinge side on a cabinet frame or stile. Because all locks have 3/4 inch long cylinders, installers can plan consistent door and drawer front thicknesses across a room or bank of cabinets. The lock body depends on a 16.5 mm diameter bore hole, which ties directly into standard metric boring patterns used in many woodworking shops.
The product is classified under deadbolt locks in the locks and latches category, so it serves roles where a positive lock position matters on cabinet doors and drawers. Tough nylon housing supports use in woodworking environments where cabinet components see frequent opening and closing. Key removable in both locked and unlocked positions supports applications like display cabinets or storage compartments where a keyholder may need to remove the key after locking or unlocking. The CB-235 cylinder body works as the central locking component, ready to be matched with lock plugs and strikes appropriate to the desired finish and cabinet layout.
The CB-235 cylinder body having 3/4 inch long cylinders standardizes the projection behind the face, which simplifies layout when coordinating hinge locations, shelf clearances, and internal dividers. When installers rely on the required 16.5 mm diameter bore hole, they can use the same boring diameter every time, which improves repeatability on production runs of doors and drawers. The surface mounted lock design allows mounting from the interior side of the door or drawer, which reduces fitting steps compared to fully mortised hardware. Horizontal mount orientation also gives a predictable cam swing direction, helping align the cam with the chosen strike on the cabinet frame or case side.
The tough nylon housing surrounding the cylinder body matters in normal woodworking conditions, where cabinet fronts are used throughout the day. It provides a durable structure around the locking mechanism during regular locking and unlocking cycles. The 180 degree key rotation provides a clear open and locked position, which can help users understand lock status during operation. Key removable in both locked and unlocked positions supports workflows where the same key carries between several CB-235 locks, such as service routes or multi-bay cabinets. Within the CompX Timberline Lock system, this cylinder body forms the core of a standardized deadbolt lock approach for doors and drawers.
