Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Corbin Russwin keyways can I order this plug in?
Ten keyways are offered on the 574K05: 252, 60, 70, 750, 751, 752, 852, 981, 982 and 983. Order the plug in the same keyway as the rest of your keying system, or the existing keys will not enter it.
2) Is the Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 plug an interchangeable core?
No. The 574K05 252 is an individual standard plug that drops into an existing Corbin Russwin cylinder body in the CK4400, CK4455, and CK4482 series; it is not a removable core and it does not give you the tool-key core swap that an interchangeable core system provides. If interchangeable core is what the facility runs, the BEST 1CB 150 Series and the BEST 1CDF drill resistant 7-pin brass 150 Series are interchangeable core cylinders, and the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam. None of those install into a CK4400 cylinder as a plug.
3) If the whole Corbin Russwin cylinder is worn out rather than just the plug, what complete cylinder can be used instead?
The Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 is an individual standard plug, a replacement part meant to restore a cylinder you already have in CK4400 (except CK4429 Hotel), CK4455, or CK4482 hardware built before 8/93. If the shell and housing are also damaged, a complete cylinder assembly is the better route. The Kaba Ilco 1539 Series key-in-knob / lever universal cylinder is a full cylinder rather than a plug, and the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder. Both change the keying arrangement, so a locksmith would need to key them into the existing system.
4) We need a cylinder for a rim exit device, not a plug for a knob cylinder. What should we order?
The Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 is a plug for CK4400, CK4455, and CK4482 cylinders and will not serve a rim exit device on its own. For rim applications, the Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam supplied with two keys, and the Schlage 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam. Match the cam orientation to what the exit device requires. The BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter covers the non-keyed rim opening.
5) Does the Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 plug fit Sargent or Schlage keyway locks?
No. The 574K05 252 plug is built around Corbin Russwin keyways and is offered in 252, 60, 70, 750, 751, 752, 852, 981, 982, and 983, in 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. For other manufacturers' systems, the Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent, the Falcon A23161-05 G is a 6-pin key-in-lever cylinder in the RU/T series G keyway supplied keyed different with two cut keys, and the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin commercial mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway.
6) Does the 574K05 work for both 5-pin and 6-pin cylinders?
Yes. The 574K05 plug is built to accommodate both 5-pin and 6-pin configurations across the compatible Corbin Russwin cylinder assemblies, so you don't need to order a separate part for each pin count.
7) Can I rekey the cylinder instead of replacing the whole lock cylinder?
That is the point of this part. The 574K05 is supplied as an individual standard plug, so a locksmith can replace only the worn or damaged plug in a compatible CK4400, CK4455 or CK4482 cylinder and keep the rest of the cylinder and the existing key control program in place.
8) My Corbin Russwin cylinder is newer than 8/93 or is a CK4429 Hotel function. What do I use instead?
The 574K05 standard plug will not serve either case, so plan on a complete replacement cylinder rather than a plug. For the opening itself, ZenSupply carries full cylinders such as the Kaba Ilco 1539 Series key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder and the Kaba Ilco 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder, both of which replace a cylinder outright rather than rebuilding one.
9) Is the 574K05 a rim cylinder or an interchangeable core?
Neither. It is a keyed plug, the rotating keyed element inside a Corbin Russwin CK-series cylinder, not a standalone cylinder you thread into a device. If you need a rim cylinder for an exit device, look at something like the Schlage 20-021 six-pin rim cylinder with vertical tailpiece cam; if you are running a small-format interchangeable core system, the BEST 1C Series 5-pin core is that type of part.
10) Will using this plug break my master key system?
No, provided you order it in the keyway your system already uses. The plug carries the standard Corbin Russwin keyway configuration, so once pinned to your existing key bitting it drops back into the same keying and key control program the cylinder was part of before.
11) Will the Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 work in an aluminum storefront mortise application?
No. The 574K05 252 is a plug sized for Corbin Russwin CK4400, CK4455, and CK4482 cylinder bodies used in commercial mechanical lock hardware. Narrow stile aluminum storefront work takes a mortise cylinder made for that prep: the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder in the 4036 Series with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness. For cylinder pull applications on Adams Rite MS1847 deadlocks, the Adams Rite 4024 mounts with a trim plate and the 4025 uses through-screws, while the 4026 five-pin cylinder pull is for wood doors with the Adams Rite 5017 deadlock.
12) What is the difference between ordering the 574K05 252 plug and ordering a bare cylinder core?
The Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 is supplied as an individual plug so you replace only the plug inside an existing CK4400, CK4455, or CK4482 cylinder rather than the full assembly, which keeps the installed cylinder body and key control program in place. A core such as the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin cylinder core from the Standard and Premium Cores line is a complete keyed core that seats in a BEST-format housing, not inside a Corbin Russwin CK cylinder shell. The two are not interchangeable parts even though both are described as the keyed heart of a cylinder.
13) We are servicing a residential handleset or deadbolt, not a CK4400 commercial cylinder. What cylinder applies?
The Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 is a commercial part for CK4400, CK4455, and CK4482 cylinder service. For handleset and deadbolt work, 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. The Emtek CY4 cylinder is sold each. The Kaba Ilco 1549 Series is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder.
14) Our facility wants to standardize on one keying platform across all doors instead of maintaining legacy CK4400 plugs. What are the options?
The Corbin Russwin 574K05 252 plug keeps legacy CK4400, CK4455, and CK4482 cylinders made before 8/93 in service and preserves the existing Corbin Russwin keying program. If the goal instead is a single new platform, interchangeable core lets one housing accept rekeyable cores across the building: the BEST 1CB 150 Series and the BEST 1CDF drill resistant patented 7-pin brass 150 Series are interchangeable core cylinders, and the Schlage 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core cylinder in the C keyway with a 643E aged bronze finish. A conversion changes the housings as well as the keys, so plan it opening by opening.
15) What finishes does the 574K05 cylinder plug come in?
Two: 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. Both are available in every one of the ten keyways, so you can match the plug face to the surrounding trim without giving up your keyway.
16) Is this a commercial-duty part or a residential one?
Commercial. The 574K05 plug is a mechanical lock component built to Corbin Russwin's commercial standards, which is why it turns up in office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities and multi-tenant properties running legacy CK-series hardware.
