BEST ED225 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the BEST ED225 tap tool actually do?
The ED225 is a hole tap used to re-cut the housing threads that a 1E mortise cylinder screws into, at 1-5/32 inch threading. When a mortise cylinder hole has been cross-threaded or the threads have been chewed up by repeated cylinder swaps, the tap chases the threads back true so a cylinder will seat again instead of the housing having to come out of the door.
2) Will the ED225 tap work on my mortise cylinder if it isn't a 1E?
No. The ED225 is cut for 1-5/32 inch threading and is intended for 1E mortise cylinder housings. A tap is thread-size specific, so running it into a housing prepped for anything other than that 1-5/32 inch thread will damage the housing rather than repair it. Confirm the cylinder is a 1E before you put this tap in the hole.
3) Is the BEST ED225 a cylinder or a tool? I just need a replacement mortise cylinder.
It's a tool, not a lock part. The ED225 is service equipment, a tap for restoring 1-5/32 inch threads in a 1E mortise cylinder housing. Nothing about it goes into the finished door. If you're replacing the cylinder itself, you want a 1E mortise cylinder, not the ED225.
4) Can I re-thread a stripped mortise cylinder hole in place, or do I have to replace the lock?
Chasing the threads is the cheaper route and it's what the ED225 exists for. It restores damaged housing threads so the cylinder housing keeps working instead of being scrapped, which for a property manager with a run of doors on the same prep means repairing what's in the door rather than pulling and replacing hardware. It only applies where the threading is 1-5/32 inch for a 1E cylinder.
5) Is there more than one version of the BEST ED225 to choose from?
One configuration only. The ED225 ships as a single model with no finish, size, or handing options to specify, so the order is just the tool itself.
