Never use oil it attracts dirt! Graphite Powdered Lock lubricant available at Lowe's, Home Depot, Walmart, & most auto parts stores. Use the right product for the job, only a few dollars.

I replaced all 6 cam locks with keyed alike for $21. I wouldn't want that odd magnetic key in my pocket. I had a cellphone that had a magnet in the speaker that attracted metal particles in my pocket from my metal working.

Spray the existing locks with penetrating oil. Wipe them clean, then "fill" them with Vaseline.

Maybe before spending 23 bucks apiece for them, you could try keeping the current locks lubricate by using powdered graphite to lubricate the lock cylinder.
Has anyone tried replacing their CH751 on their storage compartments with magnetic cam locks?

They claim to be pick proof, but that isn't why they interest me. The CH751 locks on my storage compartment are a PITA to use. The key doesn't slide in as easy as it should and the locks are very stiff. These look like they will hold up well, the weather (ice and snow) and dirt should not be able to jam them....at least that's what they claim.
I fully recognize that the storage compartments can be easily broken into with a pry-bar or larger screw driver, but they are better than nothing. At least with these locks, I'll at least be able to open them up without fighting with the CH751 key.

I have replaced all of mine with These ,they can all be keyed alike so I only have one key for everything. Just pick the size and how many you want.
I also like that they have a cover on the key slot that moves when you insert the key,thus keeping all grime out.They have worked flawlessly for more than 7 years.
