Quarter Turn Cam Lock with Padlock Hole

For those wholesale sourcing cabinet cam locks from Yitai Lock, the Quarter Turn Cam Lock with Padlock Hole MS763 covers three lock cylinder types — triangle, double-bit (slotted), and square — each available with or without a key, across all three material and finish options. The Φ22 mm cutout is consistent across all variants, which simplifies panel preparation when specifying the same lock across multiple cabinet types. Padlock hole diameter is Φ12.7 mm on stainless steel and bright chrome zinc alloy versions, and Φ12.5 mm on the black zinc alloy versions.

Lock Cylinder Types and Key Options

The Quarter Turn Cam Lock with Padlock Hole comes in three cylinder types, each available with or without a key:

·Triangle — a common drive type on industrial enclosures where access is controlled by tool type rather than a cut key, useful where only personnel with the right driver should be able to open the cabinet

·Double-bit (Slotted) — the traditional cam lock format, operated with a flat insert key

Square — similar in access-control logic to the triangle drive, suited to enclosures that use square-key systems

The "with key" variants of the lock come supplied with a key for the lock cylinder; the "no key" variants are supplied without, which suits applications where keys are managed separately or where the lock is replacing an existing unit with keys already in use. All cylinder types are compatible with all three material and finish options.

Material and Surface Finish

The Quarter Turn Cam Lock with Padlock Hole is available in three material and finish combinations:

·304 Stainless Steel — Brushed finish: The right choice for outdoor enclosures, coastal installations, humid environments, or anywhere long-term corrosion resistance is a firm requirement

·Heavy-Gauge Zinc Alloy — Matte Black: Suited to standard indoor cabinet environments; the most common finish for general-purpose distribution boxes and equipment enclosures

·Heavy-Gauge Zinc Alloy — Bright Chrome: Specified for precision instruments, high-end equipment panels, or enclosures where a polished, reflective exterior finish is part of the specification.

Both zinc alloy versions of this cam lock use heavy-gauge material for solid feel and dimensional stability, and both handle standard indoor industrial environments well over the long term.

Dimensions and Installation

The lock has the following key specifications consistent across all variants:

·Rotation angle: 90° quarter turn from locked to unlocked

·Panel thickness: 18–22 mm

·Mounting cutout: Φ22 mm diameter, 20 mm panel cutout width

·Padlock hole diameter: Φ12.7 mm (stainless steel and bright chrome zinc alloy) / Φ12.5 mm (black zinc alloy)

The padlock hole on the lock passes through the lock body and accepts a standard padlock shackle for secondary securing — useful on enclosures that need to be locked out during maintenance or that require a physical security record. A padlock is not included and should be sourced separately based on the shackle diameter.

FAQ

Q1: What cylinder types are available for the MS763?

The MS763 comes with three cylinder options: triangle, double-bit (slotted), and square. Each is available with or without a key, across all three material and finish variants — giving sixteen combinations in total.

Q2: What is the rotation angle of the MS763?

The MS763 operates with a 90° quarter turn. One turn from the locked position disengages the cam; one turn back locks it again.

Q3: What panel thickness does the MS763 fit?

The MS763 Quarter Turn Cam Lock with Padlock Hole is suitable for panels between 18 and 22 mm thick, covering most standard industrial enclosure door panels.

Q4: What size cutout does the MS763 require?

The mounting cutout is Φ22 mm in diameter with a 20 mm panel cutout width. This is consistent across all material and cylinder type variants, so the same hole preparation applies regardless of which version is specified.

Q5: What is the padlock hole diameter?

The padlock hole is Φ12.7 mm on stainless steel and bright chrome zinc alloy versions, and Φ12.5 mm on black zinc alloy versions. A standard padlock with a matching shackle diameter can be fitted through the hole for secondary security.

Q6: Which material should I choose for outdoor enclosures?

The 304 stainless steel version with brushed finish is the right choice for outdoor enclosures, coastal installations, or humid environments. The zinc alloy versions — matte black and bright chrome — are suited to indoor cabinet applications where corrosion exposure is low.
