Cable lock Maclocks Compulocks T-bar Security Keyed Coiled Cable Lock CL15C, steel, black

Maclocks Compulocks T-bar Security keyed coiled cable lock CL15C is a compact steel security cable in a black finish with a keyed lock mechanism. Designed to anchor laptops, tablets and peripherals to fixed objects, the single-piece pack includes one coiled cable and a T-bar keyed lock. The lock head is engineered for a low profile and small diameter to fit devices with built-in security slots, and the galvanized steel cable is thicker than many standard cables to provide reliable physical deterrence against opportunistic theft or unwanted removal.

Advantages

The coiled design reduces bulk when stored and extends to allow flexible placement around anchors. Stainless/gavanized steel construction resists cutting and wear while the keyed T-bar mechanism offers straightforward operation and secure attachment to compatible security slots. The lightweight, low-profile lock head improves portability and compatibility with a wide range of notebooks, desktops, docking stations and flat-panel monitors that have standard security slots.

Suitable for

• Securing laptops with a built-in security slot (including pre-2013 MacBooks with a security slot)
• Anchoring tablets and portable peripherals to desks or fixed fixtures
• Use in offices, classrooms, public workspaces, and while traveling

Key specifications

• Material: galvanized/stainless steel cable with metal lock head
• Color: black finish
• Lock type: keyed T-bar mechanism
• Cable style: coiled cable (loop-ended for anchoring)
• Compatibility: devices with standard built-in security slot

How to use

Loop the cable around a fixed, immovable object and insert the T-bar lock into the device's security slot until it engages. Turn the key to lock in place and remove the key for secure storage. When unlocking, insert the key, turn to release the T-bar and remove the cable. The coiled cable retracts for compact storage when not in use. Ensure the anchor point is sturdy and that the T-bar is fully seated in the security slot before leaving the device unattended.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the cable with devices that have a dedicated security slot and pair it with fixed, immovable anchor points such as heavy furniture or secure fixtures. Keep the key in a safe place and consider keeping a spare key stored separately. Regularly inspect the cable and lock head for signs of wear or damage and replace if compromised.
