New Bump and Snap Resistant Cylinders from CISA        

Lock bumping and snapping of traditional cylinder locks is a constant threat and a well-publicised high security risk.  Consequently, certification PAS 24 has been upgraded to reflect these changes. 

Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies has launched a new range of cylinder locks which has been developed to combat this ever increasing problem and provides levels of high security and protection from these kinds of attack.

CISA Astral S and AP3 cylinders are fabricated with a patented laminate, snap resistant steel core to provide flexural snap and pull resistance. The core is visible from both ends acting as a deterrent.  A BKP bump resistant device is built-in as standard as well as hardened steel pins and drivers to protect from drilling.  Fully compliant with BS EN1303:2005, the cylinders unique construction will withstand drilling, picking, bumping and snapping.

The Astral S cylinder has a 10-pin key biting system offering over 1.6 million differs and is completely interchangeable with the Astral range so that security can be enhanced as required.
