Corbin Russwin 487K15 67A2 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a 487K15 plug work in my existing Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder?
It's built to Corbin Russwin tolerances for drop-in fit in 1-3/8 inch mortise cylinder housings used with compatible Corbin Russwin mortise lock hardware. Two things have to match: the 1-3/8 inch cylinder length format and the keyway. This plug is cut for the proprietary 67A2 X Class keyway, so it only accepts 67A2 key blanks and only belongs in a 67A2 system. A cylinder on a different Corbin Russwin keyway needs the plug for that keyway.
2) Can I use this plug to key a new door into my existing Corbin Russwin master key system?
Yes, provided the system runs on the 67A2 keyway. The 487K15 keeps a 67A2 system intact because it accepts the matching 67A2 blanks, so a locksmith can pin it to your existing master and change key bitting and it operates on keys already in the building. That is the point of buying the plug rather than a generic cylinder: the keyway and seven-pin format carry over.
3) My exit device takes a rim cylinder. Will the 487K15 fit it?
No. The 487K15 is a mortise format plug in the 1-3/8 inch mortise size, which threads into a mortise cylinder housing. Rim cylinders mount through the door with a tailpiece and are a different part entirely. For rim applications look at the Schlage 20-021 (6-pin, vertical tailpiece cam) or 20-022 (6-pin, horizontal tailpiece cam), matching the cam orientation your device calls for.
4) If I need a complete mortise cylinder rather than just the plug, what should I order instead of the Corbin Russwin 487K15?
The Corbin Russwin 487K15 is a replacement cylinder plug, not a full cylinder housing, so it only serves openings where the existing mortise cylinder body stays in the door. If you need a whole mortise cylinder, the Adams Rite 4036 is a mortise cylinder with five-pin security in the 4036 Series, and the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch six-pin mortise cylinder with a Schlage C keyway. Both are complete cylinders you thread into the lock case; neither uses the Corbin Russwin 67A2 keyway.
5) Is a BEST interchangeable core the same thing as the Corbin Russwin 487K15 plug?
No. The 487K15 is a 7-pin X Class plug for 1-3/8 inch Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders using the 67A2 keyway, and it is rekeyed as part of the existing cylinder. BEST interchangeable cores such as the 1CB 150 Series core and the 1CDF drill resistant patented 7-pin brass 150 Series core are removable cores that swap out of a BEST-style figure-eight housing with a control key. The BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin core is the same removable-core concept at five pins. None of these drop into a Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder body.
6) My exit device needs a rim cylinder, not a mortise plug. What are the options?
The Corbin Russwin 487K15 is a plug for a 1-3/8 inch mortise cylinder and will not serve a rim application. For rim prep, the Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam supplied with two keys, and the 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam. If you standardize on full size interchangeable cores, the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam. Confirm which cam orientation your exit device requires before ordering.
7) What does 7-pin X Class mean on a Corbin Russwin cylinder plug?
Seven pin chambers instead of the more common six, combined with Corbin Russwin's X Class restricted keyway control. The practical effect is tighter key control (blanks are not open-market) and more pick resistance, which is why it turns up in institutional master key systems. It also means the plug cannot be pinned into a six-pin cylinder shell, and your key bitting has to be a seven-pin bitting.
8) What finishes does the 487K15 mortise cylinder plug come in?
Two: 606 Satin Brass and 626 Satin Chrome. Pick the one that matches the cylinder face already showing on the door, since the plug face is the visible part. 626 Satin Chrome is the usual match for brushed chrome and stainless trim; 606 Satin Brass matches brushed brass hardware.
9) I need an interchangeable core setup instead of a keyed plug. What should I look at?
The 487K15 is a pinned plug for a conventional mortise cylinder, so it is rekeyed by a locksmith, not swapped by hand. If you want maintenance staff to change a core without disassembly, go to an interchangeable core product instead: BEST offers the 1C Series standard 5-pin core, the Peaks 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core, and the drill-resistant 1CDF 7-pin brass core. Schlage's 20-057 is a 6-pin full size interchangeable core rim cylinder.
10) What do I use for a key-in-knob or key-in-lever cylinder instead of the Corbin Russwin 487K15?
The 487K15 plug fits 1-3/8 inch mortise cylinder housings, so it does not address knob and lever cylinders. Kaba Ilco offers the 1539 Series key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, the 1579 Series knob and lever cylinder for Sargent, and the 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder. On the Falcon side, the A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder for RU/T Series with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different with two cut keys. Pick by the lock brand and chassis you are servicing.
11) I need a deadbolt cylinder for a residential-style handleset. Is the Corbin Russwin 487K15 the right part?
No. The 487K15 is a commercial 7-pin X Class plug for Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders. For handleset and deadbolt work, Medeco offers the 1075127 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, the 1012040 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the 1065244 5-pin lazy motion rim cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece, and the 1065140 5-pin retrofit cylinder for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders. The Kaba Ilco 1549 Series is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder for deadbolt function.
12) What is the difference between the Corbin Russwin 487K15 and a dummy cylinder like the BEST 12E?
The 487K15 is a working 7-pin X Class plug with pin-tumbler operation in the 67A2 keyway, so it is keyed and turns to operate the lock. The BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter is a non-operating filler for prepped holes where no keyed function is wanted. Use the 487K15 where a key must operate the mortise lock and the 12E dummy where the opening only needs the appearance of a cylinder.
13) For an Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock on a storefront, is the Corbin Russwin 487K15 usable?
No. The 487K15 plug is made for 1-3/8 inch Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder housings in commercial mortise lock hardware. Adams Rite storefront deadlocks take their own trim: the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws are both for the MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch, and the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is for the Adams Rite 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch.
14) Is the 487K15 suitable for high-traffic commercial doors or is it a residential part?
Strictly a commercial part. It's built for high-traffic commercial and institutional settings, offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings, retail and multi-tenant residential. For residential handleset and deadbolt work you would be looking at something like the Medeco 1075127 five-pin rim cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, or an Emtek CY4 cylinder, not a 7-pin X Class mortise plug.
15) Is the 487K15 a genuine Corbin Russwin part or an aftermarket copy?
Genuine OEM. It's manufactured by Corbin Russwin as a cylinder component to its own specification, which matters on X Class work because the 67A2 keyway is proprietary and restricted, and an off-brand plug will not hold the key control the system was built around.
16) Can I match the satin brass or satin chrome of the Corbin Russwin 487K15 with the Schlage FSIC core?
The Corbin Russwin 487K15 plug is offered in 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. The Schlage 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core with a C keyway in 643E aged bronze, a darker finish that will not match either satin option, and it is an FSIC core rather than a mortise plug. If finish continuity across a facility matters, stay within the satin finishes of the 487K15 for Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders.
