Olympus Interchangeable Core Cam Lock, 1-1/8" Cylinder with Satin Chrome 720LM/DM-26D

Olympus Interchangeable Core Cam Lock For Retrofits

Olympus interchangeable core cam lock gives you a cam lock body designed for small format interchangeable cores, so you can standardize cores across jobs while using a dedicated cam housing. The 1-1/8 inch cylinder diameter suits applications needing that specific cylinder size, keeping layout consistent with existing hardware footprints. Across flats sizing at 7/8 inch provides a defined wrench contact area, which matters when aligning the lock body cleanly in the panel cutout. The cam lock body is zinc die cast, giving a solid metal housing that supports repeatable cam motion in regular use. A satin chrome 26D finish on the body provides a neutral metallic appearance that coordinates with other 26D finished components. The cam lock is listed as retrofits Best 1E7E4, helping match this unit to installations already built around that configuration. ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements are passed, so the lock body is rated to that published performance level.

Key Olympus 720LM/DM-26D Cam Lock Details

• The 1-1/8 inch max material thickness rating lets the body work in thicker doors or panels, while the 0.08 inch minimum thickness supports thinner material, giving flexibility across casework and fixture construction.
• The body accepts Best, Arrow, Falcon, KSP, and Schlage SFIC small format interchangeable cores, so one housing model can be used where these core systems are standardized across a facility or multiple jobs.
• Compatibility with Medeco Nexgen XT and VIDEX Cyber electronic cylinders means the same cam body can interface with those specific electronic SFIC cylinders for keyed or electronic access setups.
• Functions are set up with parts for key-retaining or non-key-retaining operation, allowing the installer to match lock behavior to the security and workflow expectations of the opening.
• Equivalency to E07261 and E07271 gives a direct reference for matching this body to layouts that already specify those part numbers, reducing guesswork when ordering for replacements.

Cam Lock Body Fit, Thickness Range, And Setup

The 1-1/8 inch cylinder length is matched to installations where that depth is required, so the cam projects correctly through material within the stated thickness range. With a max material thickness of 1-1/8 inch, the body can seat in relatively deep doors or casework panels without leaving excess cylinder exposed on the exterior face. The 0.08 inch minimum material thickness rating allows the same cam housing to be used in thin panels, which is common on certain cabinet backs and drawer fronts. By using parts that support both key-retaining and non-key-retaining functions, the same base body can be configured so the key either stays captive when locked or can be removed in multiple positions, which affects how users secure doors or drawers during daily operation. The specified across flats dimension at 7/8 inch supports repeatable locating in the cutout and handling during install.

Where This Cam Lock Body Works Best

Applications Using Small Format Interchangeable Cores

This cam lock body is built to accept small format interchangeable cores from Best, Arrow, Falcon, KSP, and Schlage SFIC, so it fits into projects where those cores are already deployed across doors and cabinets. Because the body also accepts compatible electronic cylinders such as Medeco Nexgen XT and VIDEX Cyber electronic SFIC cylinders, it can be used where access control is being upgraded yet the cam interface remains mechanical. Retrofit reference to Best 1E7E4 means this unit can stand in on existing openings based around that reference, keeping core systems unified. The Grade 1 performance requirements rating under ANSI/BHMA A156.11 positions this cam body for demanding usage levels specified under that standard. Equivalency to E07261 and E07271 provides clear cross-reference points for projects that were originally drawn or scheduled with those codes.

Details That Support Consistent Retrofits And Adjustments

The cylinder diameter of 1-1/8 inch and across flats at 7/8 inch make layout predictable when replacing or standardizing cam locks across multiple panels. The defined max and min material thickness range from 1-1/8 inch down to 0.08 inch means one body style can be applied on thin metal or thicker wood substrates while keeping cam throw consistent. The zinc die cast body gives a rigid housing that supports stable cam motion when connected to the specified cams and shifters. Configuration options for key-retaining and non-key-retaining operation allow the installer to match lock function to job specifications without changing the main housing. Satin chrome 26D finish helps the visible face blend with other 26D architectural hardware on surrounding doors and frames. Retrofit alignment with Best 1E7E4 and equivalence to E07261 and E07271 streamline replacement planning by tying this cam body directly to well-known part references.

Common Questions About This Olympus Cam Lock

Selecting This Cam Lock Body For Your Next Job

This satin chrome cam lock body no core pairs a 1-1/8 inch cylinder with a zinc die cast housing and a defined 0.08 to 1-1/8 inch material range, giving a single body that fits varied cabinet, drawer, or panel thicknesses. Support for small format interchangeable cores from Best, Arrow, Falcon, KSP, and Schlage SFIC, along with compatibility with Medeco Nexgen XT and VIDEX Cyber electronic cylinders, keeps locking hardware coordinated around one housing type. Retrofit reference to Best 1E7E4 and equivalence to E07261 and E07271 tie directly into existing specifications. Use these verified details to match the Olympus 720LM/DM-26D cam lock body to the openings and core systems on your upcoming projects.
