Ok.... help & experience needed for stealth lock problem

I recently experience a similar situation.
https://www.chastitymansion.com/forums/index.php?threads/evotion-orion.30212/#post-311008
After 3 nights of soaking the lock in WD-40 the key finally inserted and the old lock was removed.
Wheeeew!

 

This sounds like one of the pins, it may never work again. Most of these locks expose the small tab on the end of the cylinder that rotates to lock the device. The easiest get out with a broken lock would be to use a screwdriver to bend the tab in line with the slot, then the cylinder will pull out. See marked up photo.

 

Here is a link to a replacement lock I purchased and has been working great. The original was starting to not turn very well.

I know the sort of lock - it's the "magic lock" that I referred to. I've also seen it referred to as trailer hitch lock., and it may go by other names as well. The point is that the devices I've seen don't let the lock exposed like the one in the video; it's always enclosed within the device.

 

I'd also put the key in the lock as you try and turn the tab. That way you only need to overcome one pinband not 5

 

That is a fair point, although from using devices with these locks, the tab will probably bend or break if the barrel does not turn within the cylinder. Remove the failed lock and buy a replacement.

 

Many years ago I had a friend who said you only need 3 tools, a hammer, an adjustable spanner and an oxy-acetylene torch. Take your pick .

 

If you had a brass piece fall out it does sound like a broken lock. You could try positioning yourself so the hole is straight down and insert and remove the key repeatedly, or a piece of fine wire, keeping in mind that since it is likely filled with little cylinders and springs anything you stick in there could become snagged inside. The one time I had a lock break and start spitting pieces (not on a chastity device) eventually all the guts came out and the lock opened. Apparently, inside some locks all those pieces support each other and when one gives way it triggers a domino effect.

If that doesn't work then @castmenow probably has the right idea, though I have a feeling the cylinder will break long before the tab bends, and you'd have to be careful you don't accidentally stab yourself with the screwdriver if it breaks free suddenly. You could also go at the tab with a Dremel type tool, but you'd have to be exceedingly careful, not let it slip, and protect exposed skin- those rotary tools do sometimes snag and jerk. This is more likely if you're pressing hard. The old adage 'let the tool do the work' lessens this possibility. You'd also need to be careful about heat- power tools can make metal hot enough to burn skin in just a few seconds, so it would be a tedious job, a little grinding or cutting, a lot of waiting for it to cool. Someone suggested drilling the lock, which is a possibility, but power drills tend to generate a lot of torque (heat also) and if they bind the thing you're working on twists hard, which in this case is attached to your genitals, so you'd again have to be really careful, and definitely want to use a drill with a clutch, and be careful not so stab yourself... I guess the word of the day, no matter what method you choose, is caution.

Best of luck.

 

If you can handle the smell, I find PB is better than other products. Try wrapping a piece of plastic wrap loosely around the ring and barrel and spray pb in the lock and around. Use a little more wrap to seal it completely closed so pb can soak in and wait one hour. Now try to tap the key in carefully and see If it turns.

If that doesn’t work, just drill it out. The locks are brass and new sharp drill bits will cut right thru. I had to drill one off my wife’s friends boyfriend last year. The trick is to have someone hold the cage steady with channel locks and start with a very small bit and up the size scale until it falls out. Once done, make sure he showers to get all the bits of metal scraps off his skin before putting him back in Chastity.

 

PB is also known as Power Blaster and works better than WD40. Try a good soak first and if all else fails you could try prying the little hook on the barell lock until it snaps. If not, have your wife drill slowly.

In the future, oil the lock every other day to prevent this from happening again.

 

Given the photos, and the fact that these locks are brass, not titanium or steel, I would be surprised if bending the tab back doesn't work. Brass is pretty malleable. Perhaps you're a little too enamored with being "trapped?"

 

Wouldn't shearing the tab off work, if it sheared relatively cleanly in line with the barrel (if it didn't you might need to grind it down with a dreamer the rest of the way)? Though technically still "locked", the barrel should slide out if the tab is gone.

 

I have been on a quest to find the best cage (for me) for long-term lockup (defined (by me) as no need for removal at all, including cleaning) so I have a half dozen of these cages with built-in brass locks. They're simple, even crude. I have used the same brass lock since cage #1 in May of 2017. The reason why is that they're all interchangeable, and I took some sandpaper to the edges of the lock so it doesn't dig into my groin as much. Regardless of the cage - I use that more rounded lock in it.

Bending the tab back, or breaking if off would accomplish the same thing - it would allow the lock to be pulled out by manipulating the two pieces of the cage. That lone tab, at the end of the lock is the only thing blocking it's removal, regardless of the status of the keyhole itself.

Another handy tool is a small-diameter "easy-out." If you must get a drill involved (small and lightweight, such as a Dremel, would be safer than a big power drill) an easy-out is reverse threaded and with just the size of the keyhole, you could thread it in deep enough to get a grip on the lock to help wiggle/maneuver/force it back out of the chastity device.

Patience is a good thing, but make sure you don't fiddle too long. You know the saying, "Shake it more than once..." Good luck!
