American Lock APTC14 KZ – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the American Lock APTC14 a whole lock cylinder or just the plug?
It is the cylinder plug only, a service part, not a complete padlock and not a full housing assembly. You are buying the keyed plug that seats in a compatible A-Series padlock body, which is what you want when the lock body and shackle are still good and only the keying or the plug needs to change.
2) Can a Corbin Russwin 253K66 rim cylinder plug be used to repair an American Lock A1000 padlock?
No. The American Lock APTC14 KZ is a 6-pin cylinder plug built for A700, A1000 and A6000 Series padlock bodies, so it is the part that drops into those housings. The Corbin Russwin 253K66 is a 3000 Series rim cylinder plug, intended for rim cylinder housings on door hardware rather than a padlock body. The two are not interchangeable even though both are described as cylinder plugs.
3) How many pins does the American Lock APTC14 KZ plug have?
Six. The APTC14 KZ uses a 6-pin tumbler configuration, which is what gives it the key control and pick resistance expected on commercial padlocks. That also means it has to be keyed and pinned as a 6-pin plug, so any key records or masterkeying you are matching to need to be 6-pin as well.
4) Can I use the APTC14 plug to rekey padlocks across a facility so they match?
That is the normal use for it. Because the same plug serves A700, A1000 and A6000 Series padlocks, a maintenance or security shop can standardize keying across mixed padlocks from those three families instead of stocking separate parts per series. It ships as a keyed plug under the KZ designation.
5) Does a padlock cylinder plug come with the retainer or clip that holds it in?
The APTC14 KZ is supplied as the keyed plug itself. Retainers are separate service parts and are brand and platform specific, for example the Corbin Russwin 219F88-8 plug retainer serves Corbin Russwin cylinders, not American Lock padlocks. Reuse the retention hardware from the padlock you are servicing.
6) My American Lock padlock key is worn or compromised. Do I replace the whole padlock?
Not necessarily. If the body and shackle are sound, swapping in the APTC14 KZ plug restores full key operation and lets you change the keying, which keeps a serviceable lock in service instead of buying a new padlock. That is the point of the part for A700, A1000 and A6000 Series locks.
7) Is the Corbin Russwin 219F88-8 a substitute for an American Lock APTC14 KZ?
No. The 219F88-8 is a Grade 1 cylinder plug retainer, a retaining component that holds a plug in place, not a keyed plug itself. The American Lock APTC14 KZ is the keyed 6-pin plug that restores padlock operation in A700, A1000 and A6000 Series bodies. A retainer will not restore key function on its own.
8) Is the APTC14 KZ rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
Commercial. American Lock lists the APTC14 KZ as a commercial-grade service component, and it is used in warehouse, industrial, school, municipal and equipment-yard padlock programs where locks get worked hard.
9) For a facility standardizing cylinder plugs across both padlocks and door cylinders, which parts cover each side?
Padlocks in the American Lock A700, A1000 and A6000 Series take the APTC14 KZ 6-pin cylinder plug, a commercial-grade replacement part. Mortise cylinders are covered by the Corbin Russwin 121K11 series plugs, offered as 121K11-D2 and 121K11-L4, and rim cylinders by the Corbin Russwin 253K66 3000 Series rim cylinder plug. They are separate keying platforms, so each family is serviced with its own plug.
