Away — Aluminum — Aluminum family — Lock

UNVERIFIED

What this record means

What is known

OEM guide confirms a lock repair pathway but does not expose an exact lock part identifier or model/size crosswalk.

What is not confirmed

Replacement compatibility is not confirmed. Do not treat identity, appearance or measurements alone as proof of fit.

What to check next

Match the luggage label and exact identifier, confirm the stated revision/production boundary, confirm the physical position, and compare the source boundary before ordering or installing anything.

Candidate or component-presence evidence only; not a confirmed replacement fit.

Compatibility warning: Do not infer that the Aluminum lock is interchangeable with Classic/Flex/Topside locks.

What to verify before ordering

  • Confirm production revision plus left/right or front/rear position.
  • Use measurements to rule candidates out—not to overrule explicit fit or non-fit evidence.
  • Read the source and evidence boundary below before purchasing.

RC5 additional reviewed evidence

This evidence enriches the existing record without changing its original compatibility boundary unless explicitly stated.

  • W104: Worker overlap analysis identifies this row as granularity/evidence enrichment of an already accepted baseline or prior-wave relationship; do not count as net-new compatibility. source

Before you buy or repair

Verify the luggage label, exact revision and physical position. Do not substitute a visually similar part or rely on one measurement alone. If the evidence here is incomplete, contact the manufacturer or an authorized repair channel before ordering.
