SSF 1090 edition. 2 – Mechanical cylinders-burglar resistance

Product Information

Target demographic: Manufacturers, retailers, specifiers, installers.

SSF Swedish Theft Prevention Association (SSF), in collaboration with market representatives and other stakeholders, has developed SSF 1090, edition 2. This standard is part of a series of standards contributing to the classification of products in the field of burglar-resistant locking devices. Specifically, it is an integral part of SSF 3522, which is detailed in Annex A.

Main Points and Application:

• Mechanical cylinders according to this standard are designed for permanent installation and are intended to function in conjunction with either mechanical or electromechanical lock cases.
• These cylinders are based on the standards of SS-EN 1303, which is a fundamental document. This is supplemented with additional requirements and testing methods to ensure burglar-resistant properties and resistance to lock picking and manipulation.
• Please note that some parts of this standard may be subject to patent rights. SSF is not responsible for identifying such patent rights, either individually or collectively.

Specifications and Requirements:

• The standard covers mechanical cylinders with mechanical decoding, intended for permanent installation and interaction with mechanically or electrically controlled lock cases.
• It specifies requirements and methods for testing, as well as guidelines for product information and labeling.
• Additionally, the standard is applicable to cylinders in other areas of use, such as padlocks.

Changes from Previous Edition

• Editorial adaptation to SSF template for product standard.
• Number of levels changed from 5 to 3. Levels 1, 3 and 5.
• Levels 2 and 4 are removed.
• Reference to SS-EN 1303, Edition 2015 introduced in requirements and test methods, which means that the requirements have been amended and some test methods have been modified compared to previously.
• Extending the requirements for durability in levels 3 and 5.
• The cylinders shall be able to withstand temperatures ranging from -25 oC to +65 oC.
• Key number of effective differs increased for level 3.
• The cylinder plug turning resistance, where the requirement is reduced from 20 Nm to 15 Nm.
• The cylinder’s drill resistance at level 1 is adapted to EN 1303.
• The cylinder’s extraction resistance has been removed at level 1.
• Tables adjusted to include reference to EN 1303, including direct values.
• Interpretation of 5.5 Resistance to attacks with attack from 10 July 2018 introduced as the reference to SS-EN 1303 is introduced.
• Interpretation of 6.2 Durability from 12 August 2020 introduced.
