Abstract: Provided is a cylinder lock in which an inner cylinder can freely rotate with respect to an outer cylinder and a deviation amount in an axial direction between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder can be minimized, and which allows for a reduced diameter. This cylinder lock comprises an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder rotatably fitting with the inner cylinder. The inner cylinder has a fixed pin insertion groove extending along a circumferential direction on an outer circumferential surface. The outer cylinder has a fixed pin insertion hole communicating with the fixed pin insertion groove at a position corresponding to the fixed pin insertion groove. As the fixed pin is inserted into the fixed pin insertion hole toward the fixed pin insertion groove, the inner cylinder is positioned with respect to the outer cylinder rotatably and so as not to fall out in the axial direction.
