Computer Cable Lock Selection Tips

As a computer lock wholesaler, have you ever experienced this: purchasing a batch of computer cable locks and encountering the following problems:

The lock cylinder is simple and easily opened with tools.

The cable’s tensile strength is insufficient and it is easily broken.

After prolonged use, the steel cable becomes exposed at the bent parts of the cable.

Poor overall lock quality not only leads to a poor user experience and increased after-sales costs, but also seriously damages brand reputation and market trust.

So how do you choose a high-quality computer cable lock? Below, we’ll use the MK816 as an example to introduce some selection tips, hoping to be helpful.

Lock Cylinder Anti-Technical Picking

The lock cylinder’s security level directly determines the reliability of the device’s physical protection—it’s a crucial link in the anti-theft system.

The MK816 is equipped with a tubular key system, and the upper and lower rows of pins inside the lock cylinder are distributed in a ring shape, rather than in a straight line, making it difficult to pick the lock.

At the same time, this lock has 7 pins, a larger combination number, and higher security, effectively preventing thieves from technically picking the lock.

Cables to prevent unauthorized damage

One end of the cable is connected to the laptop, and the other end is connected to a fixed object such as a table leg. If the cable is cut with a tool or forcibly pulled, the laptop’s security protection will instantly fail.

The cable of this lock is made of 7*7 steel wire, which is not only high in strength but also has a compact structure, possessing excellent tensile and shear resistance. It has passed professional strength testing, ensuring stable and reliable quality, and can effectively prevent thieves from stealing the laptop through this method.

Rotational Cable

If the cable is bent in the same direction for a long time, the outer sheath is prone to wear and cracking, resulting in exposed internal steel wires. This not only poses a risk of scratches but also affects the product’s appearance and lifespan.

The cable supports 180° rotation, combined with a 360° omnidirectional rotating lock head, achieving multi-angle locking without blind spots. It easily adapts to various fixed scenarios, making cabling more flexible and locking more free.

In summary, mastering these three tips will help you accurately select a high-quality computer cable lock.
