Corbin Russwin 487K17 67A1 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the 487K17 plug work with my existing Corbin Russwin keys?
Only if your system is on the 67A1 keyway. The 487K17 is factory cut to the 67A1 keyway, so it keys into Corbin Russwin systems using that keyway and nothing else. If your building is masterkeyed on a different Corbin Russwin keyway, this plug will not accept those keys and you need the same 487K17 plug in your own keyway designation.
2) Will a 7-pin plug fit a 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder?
No. The 487K17 is sized for 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinders, and a 7-pin X Class plug needs that longer body length. For a shorter housing you want a cylinder built for it, for example the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder on the Schlage C keyway.
3) What is the difference between the Corbin Russwin 487K17 plug and a complete mortise cylinder like the Detex MC65?
The Corbin Russwin 487K17 is a 7-Pin X Class replacement plug for 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder applications with the 67A1 keyway - it is the plug component that goes inside a cylinder housing, sold as a replacement part. The Detex MC65 is a complete mortise cylinder, 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin, in the Schlage C keyway. If the existing Corbin Russwin housing and cam are staying in the lock and only the plug and keying change, the 487K17 is the part; if the whole cylinder is being swapped out and the door uses a Schlage C key system, the MC65 is a complete assembly instead.
4) If a facility wants keying changes without pulling cylinders, what should be used instead of the Corbin Russwin 487K17?
The 487K17 is a fixed-format plug for 1-1/2 inch Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders in the 67A1 keyway, so rekeying means servicing the cylinder. Where the goal is swapping keying at the door, an interchangeable core platform is the alternative: the BEST 1CB is a 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder, the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant patented 7-pin interchangeable core in brass, and the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam. Those require the lock to accept a core format rather than a conventional mortise cylinder.
5) Is this the right part for standardizing keying across a school or hospital?
It suits that use. The 487K17 is a commercial-grade OEM Corbin Russwin cylinder part on the 67A1 keyway, so replacement plugs across a facility stay on one key system rather than drifting onto mixed keyways. The 7-pin X Class configuration gives higher key control and pick resistance than a standard 5-pin plug. Typical settings include offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings and multi-tenant residential.
6) I need a rim cylinder for an exit device, not a mortise plug. What should I get?
The 487K17 is a mortise cylinder plug and will not serve a rim application. For rim, look at the Schlage 20-021 six-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam or the 20-022 with a horizontal tailpiece cam, depending on which cam orientation your device needs. If you run interchangeable cores, the Schlage 20-057 is a six-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam.
7) Is the 487K17 an interchangeable core?
No. It is a conventional 7-pin plug for a 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder, so rekeying means pulling the cylinder and repinning the plug. If you want cores you can swap by hand at the door, that is a different product family, for example the BEST 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core or the BEST 1CDF drill-resistant patented 7-pin core.
8) Can a rim cylinder be used in place of the Corbin Russwin 487K17?
No - they serve different housings. The 487K17 is a plug for 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder applications used with Corbin Russwin mortise lock systems. Rim cylinders such as the Schlage 20-021 with a vertical tailpiece cam and the Schlage 20-022 with a horizontal tailpiece cam mount through the door behind a rim exit device or rim lock and drive a tailpiece, not a mortise cam. A mortise prep will not take a rim cylinder.
9) What mortise cylinder option exists for an aluminum storefront door instead of the Corbin Russwin 487K17?
The 487K17 is a plug sized for 1-1/2 inch Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders. For narrow stile and storefront work, the Adams Rite 4036 is a five-pin mortise cylinder, Grade 1, in the 4036 Series with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness. Adams Rite also offers cylinder pulls for its deadlocks - the 4024 with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler with through-screws, both for the MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch, and the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull for the 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch.
10) The Corbin Russwin 487K17 is for a mortise lock - what is the equivalent part for a knob or lever lock?
The 487K17 plug serves 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder applications. Key-in-knob and key-in-lever locks take a different cylinder body: the Kaba Ilco 1539 is a key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder, and the Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent. 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. For a key-in-deadbolt, the Kaba Ilco 1549 covers that format.
11) How does the 7-pin count on the Corbin Russwin 487K17 compare with other cylinders?
The 487K17 uses a seven-pin tumbler arrangement in the X Class format with the 67A1 keyway, intended for key control and pick resistance on Corbin Russwin systems. Among other cylinders, the BEST 1CDF is also a 7-pin, built as a drill resistant patented interchangeable core in brass, while the BEST 1C5 is a standard 5-pin cylinder core. The Detex MC65 and the Schlage 20-021 and 20-022 rim cylinders are 6-pin, and the Adams Rite 4036 is five-pin. Higher pin counts expand the keying combinations available to a master key system.
12) What finishes does the Corbin Russwin 487K17 plug come in?
Two: 606 Satin Brass and 626 Satin Chrome. Pick the one that matches the cylinder collar and the rest of the trim on the door, since the plug face is the visible part once it is installed.
13) Is the Corbin Russwin 487K17 a genuine OEM part or aftermarket?
Genuine Corbin Russwin. It is an OEM cylinder component built to Corbin Russwin tolerances so it seats correctly in compatible cylinder assemblies, which matters on a 7-pin plug where an aftermarket copy can bind or fail to pick up the master key steps.
14) What should be ordered for a residential handleset or deadbolt rather than the Corbin Russwin 487K17?
The 487K17 is specified for commercial use as a Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder part. For residential-style handlesets and deadbolts, the Medeco 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, the Medeco 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the Medeco 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece, and the Medeco 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for the Arrow JL interconnected lock and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder. Emtek also lists the CY4 cylinder, sold each.
15) Is a dummy cylinder an acceptable substitute for the Corbin Russwin 487K17?
No. The 487K17 is a working 7-Pin X Class plug keyed to the 67A1 keyway and operates the lock. The BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter is a non-functioning filler used where a cylinder appearance is wanted but no key operation is needed. Use the dummy only on an opening that is not to be keyed.
16) The Corbin Russwin 487K17 comes in Satin Brass and Satin Chrome - what if the opening needs a bronze finish?
The 487K17 plug is offered in 606 Satin Brass and 626 Satin Chrome. For a darker finish on a keyed cylinder, the Schlage 20-057-C full size interchangeable core cylinder is listed in 643E Aged Bronze with the C keyway, though that is an FSIC core format rather than a Corbin Russwin mortise plug and requires a lock that accepts full size interchangeable cores.
