Overview
Keys go missing. Cylinders get packed with dust and quit turning. It happens, and it should not mean buying a whole new locking mount.
This is the cylinder by itself, and it comes with two keys. It drops into the lock pocket on a RotoPax locking handle so your existing mount goes back to doing its job. Handy in two situations: you lost the keys and need the mount working again, or the old cylinder has taken enough grit that swapping in a fresh one beats fighting it every trip. The swap itself is nothing dramatic: pull the old cylinder out of the handle, drop this one into the pocket, and stash the spare key somewhere that isn’t the same ring as the first one.
- Replacement lock cylinder
- Two keys included
- Fits RotoPax locking handles
Worth throwing in the toolbox as a spare before a long trip. A replacement lock cylinder weighs almost nothing and it is a lot less annoying than discovering at a trailhead that the only key you had is sitting in the driveway at home.
