Corbin Russwin 579K14 N1 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Corbin Russwin 579K14 plug, and does it come as a complete cylinder?
It is the plug only, the rotating key-bearing core of a Corbin Russwin CK4429 cylinder, supplied as an individual replacement component rather than a full cylinder. You reuse the existing cylinder shell and rebuild with this plug, which is the usual move when the plug is worn or the keying needs to change but the housing is fine. If you need a whole cylinder instead of a service part, a complete unit is the right buy, not this.
2) Which Corbin Russwin keyways can I get this cylinder plug in?
Twenty-eight N-family keyways are offered: N1 through N28. Pick the one that matches the keyway already stamped on your existing Corbin Russwin cylinders, otherwise the plug will not accept your keys. A plug is keyway-specific, so a building keyed in N2 needs the N2 plug, not N1.
3) Can I use the 579K14 plug to replace a cylinder in a Schlage or Sargent lock?
No. It is engineered specifically for the Corbin Russwin CK4429 cylinder and the Corbin Russwin N keyway family, so it does not cross into other manufacturers' cylinders. For Sargent knob and lever work, the Kaba Ilco 1579 cylinder is built for Sargent; for Schlage, a Schlage rim cylinder such as the 20-021 (vertical tailpiece cam) or 20-022 (horizontal cam) is the correct family.
4) What is the interchangeable core alternative if a facility wants to stop rebuilding cylinders by hand?
The Corbin Russwin 579K14 is a standard plug that is pinned and installed as part of a conventional cylinder rebuild. A facility that wants cores swapped by control key instead would move to an interchangeable core platform such as the BEST 1CB Peaks 150 series interchangeable core cylinder, the BEST 1C series standard 5-pin core, the drill-resistant BEST 1CDF patented 7-pin brass 150 series core, or the Schlage 20-057 6-pin full size interchangeable core rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam. That is a keying-system change, not a drop-in part swap, since those cores run on their own keyways.
5) If a Corbin Russwin CK4429 cylinder is worn beyond the plug, what complete cylinder can be used instead of a replacement plug?
The Corbin Russwin 579K14 plug is a replacement plug component intended for rebuilding a CK4429 cylinder rather than replacing it. If the whole cylinder is being swapped out, complete cylinders in the same category include the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder, a 6-pin commercial mortise cylinder with a Schlage C keyway and 1-1/8 inch length, and the Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder, a Grade 1 five-pin cylinder for doors 1/2 inch minimum thickness. Note that both use their own keyways, so they will not key into an existing Corbin Russwin N keyway system the way a genuine N keyway plug does.
6) What does the New Tailpiece version mean, and how do I know I need it rather than the old style?
Corbin Russwin changed the tailpiece design on these plugs, and the 579K14-N1 is the New Tailpiece configuration, built to engage current-style CK4429 cylinder mechanisms. If the plug you pull out has the older tailpiece geometry, it will not drive correctly with the new part. Compare the tailpiece on the existing plug before you order so the engagement into the lock is right.
7) Can I have this Corbin Russwin plug keyed to my existing building master key system?
The plug ships as a standard plug in your chosen N-family keyway, which is what lets it be pinned into an existing Corbin Russwin system. Keying is done by the locksmith at the bench with the pins and key blanks for that keyway. Order the keyway that matches the system already in the building, and specify 5 or 6-pin to match how the rest of the doors are pinned.
8) Is a Kaba Ilco 1539 or 1599 cylinder a substitute for a Corbin Russwin 579K14 plug?
No. The 579K14 is an individual plug that goes inside an existing CK4429 cylinder, supplied with a New Tailpiece and an N keyway in 5 and 6-pin configurations. The Kaba Ilco 1539 key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, the 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder, the 1549 key-in-deadbolt cylinder, and the 1579 knob and lever cylinder for Sargent are complete replacement cylinders for knob, lever, and deadbolt locks. They replace the whole cylinder assembly, so they are the choice when the housing itself is damaged rather than just the plug.
9) The tailpiece on our rim device is the problem, not the plug. What should we look at instead?
The Corbin Russwin 579K14 carries a New Tailpiece configuration matched to compatible Corbin Russwin lock mechanisms, so it is the right part only when you are rebuilding a CK4429 cylinder. If the issue is tailpiece orientation on a rim exit device, complete rim cylinders address it directly: the Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and the Schlage 20-022 is the same cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam, each supplied with 2 keys.
10) What is the equivalent part for a key-in-lever cylinder on a Falcon lock rather than a Corbin Russwin?
The 579K14 plug is a Corbin Russwin part sold in the N keyway family, N1 through N28, in 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. For a Falcon key-in-lever, the corresponding item is the Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder, a RU/T series 6-pin cylinder in the G keyway supplied keyed different with 2 cut keys. The two are not interchangeable because the keyway families and host locks differ.
11) We service aluminum storefront with Adams Rite deadlocks. Does the Corbin Russwin 579K14 apply there?
No. The 579K14 is a plug for the Corbin Russwin CK4429 cylinder used in commercial mechanical lock service. Adams Rite storefront hardware takes its own cylinder parts: 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, the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is for the 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch, and the 4036 is a Grade 1 mortise cylinder for doors 1/2 inch minimum.
12) Which cylinder should be used on a residential-style handleset or deadbolt instead of a Corbin Russwin plug?
The 579K14 plug is a commercial part for Corbin Russwin CK4429 cylinders. For handleset and deadbolt retrofits, high-security options include the Medeco 1075127 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, the Medeco 1012040 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the Medeco 1065244 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder with Emtek tailpiece, and the Medeco 1065140 5-pin retrofit cylinder for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders. Emtek users can also take the Emtek CY4 cylinder, sold each.
13) What is the difference between ordering a Corbin Russwin 579K14 plug and a Schlage 20-057-C core?
The 579K14 is an individual standard plug configured for the Corbin Russwin N keyway across N1 through N28, offered in 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome, and installed into a CK4429 cylinder. The Schlage 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core cylinder in the Schlage C keyway supplied in 643E aged bronze, which drops into an FSIC housing with a control key. They serve different keying platforms and different finish schedules, so the choice follows the existing system in the building.
14) Is this a commercial part or something for residential locks?
Strictly commercial. It is a Corbin Russwin mechanical lock service part intended for commercial cylinder work in offices, schools, hospitals, government buildings, retail, warehouses, and multi-tenant residential properties maintained by staff locksmiths. Residential deadbolt rebuilds are a different animal.
15) We need a non-keyed filler for an unused rim opening. Is a Corbin Russwin plug the right part?
No. The Corbin Russwin 579K14 is a functioning keyed plug pinned for 5 and 6-pin operation in the N keyway. For an opening that needs the appearance of a cylinder without key function, the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter is the item built for that purpose.
