Lock Cylinder Tumblers
Each of the 4 depths on the key has corresponding tumblers, sometimes referred to as plates or wafers. The numbers are stamped on the tumblers for identification. Door and lift gate tumblers and ignition tumblers represent 3 different series. There are also three different compression springs. It is essential that the correct components be used in the tumbling of locks. The compression springs are inserted into the springs wells, and then the correct tumblers are inserted into the tumbler wards for the door and lift gate. The ignition is tumbled differently. Insert the correct tumbler into the tumbler wards then insert the tumbler springs on top of the tumblers.
