CompX Timberline cam lock, 3/4 inch thick, vertical mount with 15/32 inch off-set cam and 1-1/4 inch cam length gives a defined solution for locking standard 3/4 inch cabinet, furniture, desk, and locker doors or drawers. The 90 degree CCW cam rotation to lock provides a clear, repeatable motion that helps installers set up consistent locking direction across a bank of casework. The vertical mount format suits layouts where the cylinder is positioned upright in the panel, so casework design can stay straightforward without changing drilling orientation. The off-set cam layout positions the locking throw away from the cylinder centerline, helping the cam reach the strike area on typical face frame or panel constructions. With the Timberline system, CB-098 serves as a dedicated cylinder body for these 3/4 inch applications in woodworking projects.
The vertical mount CompX Timberline cam lock CB-098 is described for 3/4 inch material thickness, so hole placement and backset can be planned around standard cabinet sides, doors, and drawer fronts used in woodworking. The 15/32 inch off-set cam works together with the 1-1/4 inch cam length, which affects how the cam reaches the strike zone behind the panel, important when laying out latch engagement on framed or frameless constructions. Because the operation is 90 degree CCW rotation to lock, installers can align the key position and cam travel to match user expectations, such as locking when the key turns counterclockwise from vertical. As a CompX Timberline CB-098 cylinder body type, it fits into Timberline-based locking plans where the same style of cam lock is used across cabinetry, furniture, desks, and lockers.
The Web description states this CompX Timberline cam lock is for door or drawer locking in cabinetry, furniture, desks, and lockers, so it plays a role wherever swing or sliding fronts on 3/4 inch material need keyed control. In cabinetry, the 3/4 inch material specification aligns with standard carcass and door construction, letting the CB-098 fit common shop-built or manufactured casework thicknesses. On furniture pieces such as credenzas or storage units, the 1-1/4 inch cam length helps reach interior strikes or rails, supporting secure closure on doors and pull-out drawers. In desks, the off-set cam can engage a frame or rail behind the drawer front, providing a locking point that works with typical office layouts. For lockers, the same 3/4 inch orientation and 90 degree CCW lock action allow uniform operation across multiple doors, simplifying user interaction in institutional or commercial environments. Across these uses, the CB-098 cylinder body type 098 becomes a consistent locking element within the Timberline system for wood-based projects.
The 90 degree cam rotation CCW to lock defines the arc of travel, so the installer knows the cam moves through a quarter turn, which helps position strikes and keep clearance around shelves or dividers. By specifying CCW to lock, the product gives a predictable key direction, useful when setting up multiple cabinets where users expect the same motion at every opening. The 15/32 inch off-set cam changes how the cam sits relative to the cylinder centerline, letting the locking surface move closer to or further from the door or drawer edge, which can be critical on face frame cabinets or inset panels. Combined with the 1-1/4 inch cam length, this geometry supports reaching behind the panel plane without overextending into the cabinet interior, helping avoid interference with stored contents or interior partitions. The CB-098 designation and cylinder body type 098 identify this specific geometry in the CompX Timberline line, giving shops a repeatable reference when reordering for ongoing cabinetry, furniture, desk, or locker programs.
