Tool box lock replacement

Locks avaiable from McMaster-Carr (USA source)

I extracted this information from Greg Barratt of Stainless Cycle off of the old Topica Loopframe_Guzzi news group (which has now moved to Groups.io). In Greg's own words:

Use the McMaster-Carr part number 13105A75. It is a much nicer lock, doesn't clip on like that chintzy universal one, has a lock nut, keyed alike, waterproof. It comes with a couple of different latches. I use the straight one, cut it way down. Overall I've used 4 of the universal ones, and now 2 of the good ones - there's no comparison.

I used the toolbox locks recommended by Greg Barratt and they do indeed work well and look quite nice.

Locks available from Lowe and Fletcher (UK source)

Thanks to Richard Harding for sending me this information via email. In Richard's own words:

I had to replace the locks on the toolbox, and the McMaster-Carr option isn't easily available in the UK so I thought you might be interested in this option, which might be more common in Europe.

It's the Lowe and Fletcher 1361 11mm cam lock (that page lists 1361 as a variation).

The tab is way too long, so it needs to be cut down. A couple of photos are attached

Hope that's useful
