help identifying cabin lock

[livendive]

So my google button is worn out, and I've yet to figure out what to call this type of lock so that I can look for a replacement. Basically a push in extends the piston into the plate behind the door, and a turn keeps it from coming back out. The lock itself is fairly worn, I only have one key, and the holes in the plastic spacer are stripped. Any suggestions for a replacement, or help even identifying what a lock like this is called would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Maybe try perco.com...they seem to always have the lock we are looking for.

Looks like a Perco product to me also. Be sitting down when they tell you how much.

I drudged through Perko's lag-happy site several times without any luck. I got ahold of a guy at Silverton who reported the original is no longer made, but who pointed me in the right direction. The overall category is "disc tumbler" and the sub-type with this specific action is "plunger". There seem to be a few manufacturers of similar locks...I ordered a CompX National, but Kenstan Locks seems to custom make some that look like they would work too. Pricing was "reasonable"...I found one for $31 delivered. Thanks guys!
