Corbin Russwin 487K13 27B2 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the 487K13 plug fit a 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder?
No. The 487K13 plug is built for 1-1/4 inch mortise cylinder bodies. A 1-1/8 inch cylinder, like the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder, is a different length class and takes its own plug. Measure the cylinder body before ordering.
2) Can a locksmith use the 487K13 to rekey a Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder instead of replacing the whole cylinder?
That is exactly what it is for. Swapping the plug lets you change the keying of a compatible Corbin Russwin 1-1/4 inch mortise cylinder assembly without pulling and replacing the entire cylinder, which keeps the existing housing, cam, and finish in place.
3) If I need a complete mortise cylinder rather than just a replacement plug, what should I order instead of the Corbin Russwin 487K13?
The 487K13 27B2 is a replacement cylinder plug for 1-1/4 inch Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder bodies, so it only helps if you already have the cylinder shell and are servicing or rekeying it. For a complete mortise cylinder, the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder with a Schlage C keyway, and the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 mortise cylinder in the 4036 series for doors 1/2 inch minimum thickness. Both are assembled cylinders, not plugs, and neither uses the Corbin Russwin 27B2 keyway.
4) Will the Corbin Russwin 487K13 plug work in a rim cylinder application?
No. The 487K13 27B2 is built for 1-1/4 inch mortise cylinder bodies. Rim device openings take a rim cylinder such as the Schlage 20-021 with a vertical tailpiece cam or the 20-022 with a horizontal tailpiece cam, both 6-pin and supplied with two keys, or the Schlage 20-057 FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam.
5) Is there an interchangeable core option instead of replacing a mortise cylinder plug?
The Corbin Russwin 487K13 27B2 is a fixed-plug service part: you pin the plug to the 27B2 keyway and reinstall it in the 1-1/4 inch mortise cylinder body. If you would rather rekey by pulling a core, the BEST 1CB is a Peaks 150 series interchangeable core, the BEST 1C5 is a standard 5-pin core, and the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant patented 7-pin brass 150 series core. Those require a housing built for interchangeable cores rather than a conventional mortise cylinder.
6) For an aluminum storefront door with an Adams Rite deadlock, is the 487K13 the right cylinder part?
No. The 487K13 27B2 is a Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder plug for commercial mortise cylinder bodies. Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch systems are served by the Adams Rite 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting or the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws; for a wood door with an Adams Rite 5017 deadlock or deadlatch, the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull applies.
7) What finishes is the 487K13 X Class cylinder plug available in?
Two: 606 Satin Brass and 626 Satin Chrome. Pick the one that matches the cylinder body and the surrounding trim on the door, since the plug face is what shows.
8) Is a 7-pin X Class plug worth it over a standard 5 or 6 pin cylinder for a commercial building?
The X Class 7-pin plug exists for key control, which is the point when you are running a master keyed facility and need to stop unauthorized key duplication. A 5-pin core such as the BEST 1C5 standard cylinder core, or a 6-pin cylinder like the Schlage 20-021 rim cylinder, is simpler and fine on openings that are not part of a controlled keying program. If your Corbin Russwin system is already X Class, stay with it, mixing pin counts breaks the master key hierarchy.
9) What do I use for a key-in-knob or key-in-lever cylinder instead of this mortise plug?
The Corbin Russwin 487K13 27B2 serves mortise cylinder bodies only. For knob and lever chassis, the Kaba Ilco 1539 is a universal key-in-knob/lever cylinder, the 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent, and the 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder. The Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder in the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different with two cut keys.
10) I need a non-keyed filler for an unused cylinder hole, not a working plug. What is the alternative to the 487K13?
The 487K13 27B2 is a functioning 7-pin X Class plug keyed to the 27B2 keyway and intended to restore or rekey an operating mortise cylinder. Where an opening has a cylinder hole that should not operate, the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter fills the prep without keyed function.
11) Does the 487K13 plug fit residential deadbolts and handlesets?
The 487K13 27B2 is a commercial part built for Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder assemblies. Residential-style deadbolts and handlesets take dedicated retrofit cylinders instead: the Medeco 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders, the 1065244 is a 5-pin lazy motion rim type with an Emtek tailpiece, and the 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts. Emtek's own CY4 cylinder is sold individually as a parts item.
12) How does the pin count on the Corbin Russwin 487K13 compare with other commercial cylinders?
The 487K13 27B2 plug is 7-pin X Class, which supports deeper master key systems. Among commercial peers, the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder is 6-pin, the Schlage 20-021 and 20-022 rim cylinders are 6-pin, the Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder is 6-pin, and the BEST 1C5 core is 5-pin while the BEST 1CDF core is 7-pin. Pin count must match the keying system the facility already runs.
13) My facility is standardizing on interchangeable cores with a C keyway. Is the 487K13 part of that plan?
No. The 487K13 27B2 plug is keyed to the Corbin Russwin 27B2 keyway and pins into a conventional 1-1/4 inch mortise cylinder body. A C keyway interchangeable core program would use something like the Schlage 20-057-C full size interchangeable core cylinder with C keyway in 643E Aged Bronze, or the 20-057 FSIC rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam.
14) Do I get keys with the Corbin Russwin 487K13 plug?
The 487K13 is sold as the plug component itself. Cut keys are part of a keying order, so expect to have your keys cut to your facility's 27B2 system by whoever maintains your key records. Compare that with a cylinder sold as a keyed assembly, like the Falcon A23161-05 G, which is listed keyed different with two cut keys.
15) Is the 487K13 plug rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
Commercial. It is specified for commercial mortise cylinder service, the kind of work found in office buildings, schools, hospitals, government facilities, retail, warehouses, and multi-tenant residential properties.
