Corbin Russwin 488K98 A1 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Corbin Russwin 488K98 plug, and does it come with pins or a key?
It is the cylinder plug only, the rotating core barrel that the key enters, sold as an individual replacement part for Corbin Russwin CK4200, UT5200 and 2000-051 cylinders. It is not a complete cylinder and not a lock. A locksmith pins it and cuts keys to the existing system; nothing about pins, springs or keys is part of the plug itself.
2) Will the 488K98 plug fit my UT5200 cylinder?
Yes, provided your UT5200 cylinder takes the .552 inch plug diameter, which is the specification this plug is machined to. The same plug also serves CK4200 and 2000-051 cylinders. If your cylinder body uses a different plug diameter, this is the wrong part.
3) Can I use this Corbin Russwin plug in a BEST or Schlage cylinder?
No. The 488K98 is machined for Corbin Russwin CK4200, UT5200 and 2000-051 cylinder bodies with an A-family keyway, and none of that carries over to other manufacturers. For BEST small format interchangeable core work you would look at a core such as the BEST 1C 5-pin standard core; for Schlage rim applications, the Schlage 20-021 or 20-022 6-pin rim cylinder. Those are complete cores or cylinders, not plugs.
4) Is the Corbin Russwin 488K98 plug the same thing as a complete replacement cylinder?
No. The 488K98 A1 is an individual standard cylinder plug, a replacement part for CK4200, UT5200 (.552") and 2000-051 cylinders in the A keyway - it is the keyed plug that goes into an existing cylinder housing, not a cylinder you can install in a door. If the whole cylinder needs replacing rather than rekeying the plug, a complete unit is the right buy: the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder, and the Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and two keys.
5) What should I use instead of a Corbin Russwin 488K98 plug if I want cores I can swap without disassembling the cylinder?
The 488K98 A1 plug is a standard, non-interchangeable-core part that is fitted inside CK4200, UT5200 or 2000-051 cylinders. For a system where the keyed element pulls out with a control key instead, look at interchangeable core products: the BEST 1CB is a 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder, the BEST 1CDF is a drill-resistant patented interchangeable core 7-pin brass 150 Series core, and Schlage's 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam.
6) Will a Corbin Russwin 488K98 plug work in an Adams Rite deadlock or a Medeco deadbolt retrofit?
No. The 488K98 A1 plug is cut for Corbin Russwin CK4200, UT5200 (.552") and 2000-051 cylinders in the A keyway and does not cross to other makers' cylinder bodies. Adams Rite openings take their own parts - the 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder, and the 4025 is a five-pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws for the MS1847 deadlock. For deadbolt and handleset retrofits, Medeco lists the 1065140 5-pin retrofit cylinder for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders, and the 1012040 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts.
7) Does the 488K98 work in both 5-pin and 6-pin Corbin Russwin cylinders?
It covers both. The plug is drilled for 5 and 6-pin configurations, so the same part number serves a 5-pin CK4200 or a 6-pin build in the same families. Pin the chambers you need for your master key system.
8) My tenant lost a key and I need to rekey the lock, do I need a new plug or just new pins?
Rekeying to a different combination within the same keyway only needs new pins and keys, not a new plug. Buy the 488K98 plug when the plug itself is damaged, worn, drilled, or when you are changing to a different A-family keyway so old keys no longer enter. It is an OEM Corbin Russwin part, so it drops into CK4200, UT5200 and 2000-051 cylinder bodies without modifying the lock.
9) I need a whole cylinder, not just the plug. What should I be looking at instead?
If the cylinder body or cam is the problem, replace the cylinder rather than the plug. Complete units we carry include the Schlage 20-057 6-pin full size interchangeable core rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam, the Detex MC65 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder in Schlage C keyway, and the Adams Rite 4036 Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder. Keyway and cam style still have to match the hardware you are putting it into.
10) I manage several buildings on a Corbin Russwin A2 master key system. Can I standardize on one plug part number?
Yes, for the cylinder families this plug covers. Order 488K98 in the A2 keyway across all your CK4200, UT5200 and 2000-051 cylinders and every plug will accept keys from that system, with the pinning set to your masterkey schedule. Keep the finish consistent too, 606 satin brass or 626 satin chrome, so the key faces match across openings.
11) I need a keyed cylinder for a key-in-lever lockset, not a Corbin Russwin plug. What are the options?
The Corbin Russwin 488K98 A1 is a bare plug for CK4200, UT5200 and 2000-051 cylinders in the A keyway. For a complete key-in-knob or key-in-lever cylinder, the Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder for the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different with two cut keys; the Kaba Ilco 1539 is a key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, and the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder. The 1579 is the knob and lever cylinder built for Sargent locks.
12) How do I choose between a Corbin Russwin 488K98 plug and a full-size interchangeable core when standardizing keying across a building?
The Corbin Russwin 488K98 A1 is a commercial replacement plug offered in 24 A-family keyways from A1 through A24 and in 606 Satin Brass and 626 Satin Chrome, so it fits a facility already keyed into Corbin Russwin CK4200, UT5200 or 2000-051 cylinders. A core-based program works differently: the Schlage 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core in the C keyway with a 643E Aged Bronze finish, and the BEST 1C5 is a standard 5-pin cylinder core from the Standard and Premium Cores line. Match whichever keyway family your existing masterkey system is built on.
13) Is the 488K98 plug suitable for a high-traffic commercial building?
It is a commercial-grade part, rated for commercial rather than residential use, and it is the factory component for Corbin Russwin cylinders in offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings, warehouses, retail and multi-tenant residential. Because it is the OEM plug, keying integrity and key control within an existing A-keyway system are preserved when you swap it.
