Zusammenfassung:The present invention discloses a vandal resistant coupled T-handle assembly for a T-handle locking assembly commonly used in vending machines. The coupled T-handle assembly comprises a hardened sleeve secured over a face element of the T-handle assembly. The hardened sleeve is formed from a tamper resistant, high strength material capable of resisting attempts by thieves and vandals to gain access to interior compartments of a vending machine by drilling through, battering or otherwise destroying the face element of the T-handle assembly and thereafter breaking the locking assembly. The T-handle assembly also includes additional lock holes at the base of the T-handle body to provide additional element passages for increased security.
