The Kappa Z277K lock plate is the original metal spare part of the component operated by the key in Kappa K48 and K40N top cases. It is the small element that allows the lock barrel to correctly engage with the lid: when it deforms, wears out, or breaks, the top case can no longer be locked. Replacing it is the quickest and most economical way to restore the security of the top case. Product by Kappa Moto, a brand of the GIVI S.p.A. group.
✓ Strengths

- Restores key locking function – the top case will lock correctly again
- Minimal cost – avoids replacing the entire lid or top case
- Simple installation – replaces using the original mounting points
- Anti-theft security – a well-locking mechanism is the primary deterrent
