The barrel, or rotor, is the central component of a lock; it is the moving element that houses the key to allow the locking mechanism to open or close. When the appropriate key is inserted, the inner wafers align perfectly and unlock the barrel, allowing it to rotate freely and operate the cam or cam connected via the rear terminal.

At OMR we manufacture high-quality barrels from zamak, a die-cast zinc alloy known for its excellent mechanical properties. The barrels are then subjected to a black protective coating treatment that prevents wear, corrosion and oxidation, ensuring a longer service life. Plate-cylinder cam locks, essential components for lock security, are made of high-quality steel, ensuring long life and reliability.

Understanding the importance of customization, we offer the ability to develop custom-made barrels that conform to the specifications and drawings provided by our customers. This service allows us to meet special requirements in terms of size, shape and functionality, ensuring seamless integration into the desired locking systems. Quality is at the heart of our production process; our barrels undergo rigorous quality controls to verify that they meet the highest standards. These checks include dimensional tests, mechanical strength evaluations, and function tests, and ensure that the final product offers optimal performance and long operational life.

The experience gained from decades of manufacturing locks and barrels enables us to provide reliable components for a wide range of applications for securing lockers, drawers, doors, mailboxes, switchboards, control panels, trunks, bike and toilet racks, and virtually anywhere a lock is needed. Quality materials, advanced manufacturing processes and constantly updating technology make us the ideal partner for developing your locking systems, at competitive prices.
