CompX Timberline cam lock CB-193 is a vertical mount cylinder body with a 1-1/4 inch cam extension that secures doors or drawers, giving cabinetry, furniture, desks, and lockers a dedicated locking point where the cam engages a strike or frame member. The lock body is configured for 3/4 inch material thickness so the cam projection lines up for common cabinet construction without extra shimming. A 3/32 inch off-set cam is installed, shifting the cam face slightly to reach behind a door or drawer edge where direct alignment is not possible. The cam rotates 180 degrees counterclockwise, moving cleanly between locked and unlocked positions so installers can align the strike for a positive throw in a half-turn. This cylinder body uses a separate CompX Timberline lock plug, allowing keying to match existing Timberline systems in a shop or facility.
This vertical mount cam lock locates the cylinder body so the plug face is oriented upright on the door or drawer front, which aligns well with typical drilling jigs and layout patterns in cabinet shops. The 1-1/4 inch cam extension swings in an arc behind the panel, giving a clear locking action when it rotates into position behind a strike plate or cabinet member. With 180 degree cam rotation counterclockwise, the installer can plan the locked position and unlocked position around a simple half-turn motion, which can simplify handle and key orientation on the finished unit. The 3/32 inch off-set in the installed cam alters the arc just enough to catch a frame or rail that does not sit directly behind the lock hole, which is helpful in face-frame and similar constructions.
The CB-193 cam lock is specified as a cam lock for door or drawer locking in cabinetry, furniture, desks, and lockers, so it fits into a wide range of casework projects where a simple cam action is needed. Its design for 3/4 inch material thickness aligns with many cabinet box and drawer front constructions, allowing it to sit correctly in panels often used in shop and commercial millwork. The 1-1/4 inch cam length and 3/32 inch off-set cam installed let the lock engage members behind doors and drawers in these applications, helping the cam reach frame or cabinet parts that form the locking point. In desks and lockers, the vertical mount orientation positions the cylinder so keys operate naturally from the user side while the cam rotates behind the front.
The CB-193 cam lock operates with 180 degree cam rotation counterclockwise, which defines a clear motion range from locked to unlocked in a single half-turn, allowing installers to plan stops and strike positions around that fixed movement. Because the rotation direction is specified as counterclockwise, planners can lay out key positions and cam contact points so the lock throws into a secure position as the key turns in a known direction. The installed 3/32 inch off-set cam changes the cam path relative to the cylinder centerline, which helps the cam pass behind or in front of framing elements instead of just brushing the edge. Combined with the 1-1/4 inch cam extension, that off-set creates flexibility to catch rails or cabinet dividers in door and drawer applications, supporting consistent engagement across multiple units in cabinetry, furniture, desks, and lockers. The separate CompX Timberline lock plug ordering lets locks in those units share keying where a Timberline system is already in use.
The CB-193 cylinder body is designed for 3/4 inch material thickness, which positions the cam correctly behind typical cabinet doors and drawer fronts in many woodworking projects.
The CB-193 cam lock has a 1-1/4 inch cam extension, giving extra reach to contact strikes or cabinet members located farther behind the front panel.
The CB-193 cam lock operates with 180 degree cam rotation counterclockwise, creating a straightforward half-turn transition between locked and unlocked positions.
The CB-193 has a 3/32 inch off-set cam installed, shifting the cam path so it can hook or bear on frame members that are not directly centered behind the cylinder.
The CB-193 cam lock is specified for door or drawer locking in cabinetry, furniture, desks, and lockers, providing a simple cam action for these casework applications.
The CB-193 cylinder body uses CompX Timberline lock plugs ordered separately, so keying can match existing Timberline systems across multiple locks.
The CB-193 CompX Timberline cam lock pairs a vertical mount cylinder body for 3/4 inch material with a 1-1/4 inch cam extension and 3/32 inch off-set cam, giving a defined solution for door and drawer locking in cabinetry, furniture, desks, and lockers. Its 180 degree counterclockwise rotation and separate CompX Timberline lock plug ordering allow shops and installers to plan consistent cam action and align keying with existing Timberline setups. When a project calls for a dedicated cam lock for these applications, this cylinder body configuration supports a focused, repeatable locking layout.
