Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Corbin Russwin locks does the 596K29 AR cylinder plug fit?
The 596K29 AR plug is made for Corbin Russwin CL3300, CL3500, CL3600, CL3700 and CL3800 series cylinders. It is a genuine Corbin Russwin replacement part for those CL series lock families, so if the lockset on the door is one of those, the plug drops into the matching cylinder assembly.
2) Will a 596K29 AR plug work on my existing key system?
Only if your system is on the Corbin Russwin AR keyway. The plug is cut for AR, so it keys into an existing AR masterkey or grand masterkey system and keeps key control intact. If your building is on a different Corbin Russwin keyway, this plug will not accept your keys and you need the plug for that keyway instead.
3) Is the 596K29 a complete cylinder or just the plug?
Just the plug, the rotating core that carries the pins and accepts the key. It is a replacement component that goes into an existing Corbin Russwin CL series cylinder housing, not a standalone mortise or rim cylinder. If you need a full cylinder assembly, a plug alone will not finish the job.
4) Can a BEST 1C or 1CB interchangeable core be used instead of a Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR cylinder plug?
No. The Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR is a 5 and 6-pin Individual X Class cylinder plug, a replacement part that goes inside an existing Corbin Russwin CL3300, CL3500, CL3600, CL3700 or CL3800 series cylinder and is cut to the AR keyway. The BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin cylinder core and the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder are complete removable cores designed to drop into BEST interchangeable-core housings, not plugs for a Corbin Russwin CL series cylinder body. If the housing in the door is a Corbin Russwin CL series cylinder, the plug is the matching part; if the housing takes a BEST small-format core, the 1C or 1CB is the part.
5) I need a whole mortise cylinder, not just the plug - what should I order instead of the 596K29?
The 596K29 AR is a replacement cylinder plug only, intended to restore keying in an existing Corbin Russwin CL series cylinder. If the complete cylinder is being replaced, a full mortise cylinder is the right item: the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin commercial mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, and the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder in the 4036 Series. Both are complete cylinders with their own housings, so the keyway you standardize on changes accordingly - neither is AR keyway like the 596K29 plug.
6) What do I use if the opening needs a rim cylinder rather than a Corbin Russwin CL series plug?
Rim applications, such as exit device trim, take a rim cylinder instead. The Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam supplied with 2 keys, and the 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam; the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin full size interchangeable core rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam. The Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR is a plug for CL3300 through CL3800 series lock cylinders and has no rim housing or cam, so it will not serve a rim prep.
7) Can the 596K29 plug be pinned for both 5-pin and 6-pin keying?
Yes. The 596K29 AR supports both 5-pin and 6-pin configurations, so a locksmith can pin it to whatever the rest of the facility's AR system uses. That matters when you are standardizing a building that has a mix of older 5-pin and newer 6-pin cylinders.
8) My lock is not a Corbin Russwin CL series. What cylinder should I look at instead?
A CL series plug will not serve another manufacturer's lock. For Sargent knob and lever locks, the Kaba Ilco 1579 replacement cylinder is the match; for general key-in-knob replacement, the Kaba Ilco 1599 works. On Schlage rim applications, the 20-021 (vertical tailpiece cam) and 20-022 (horizontal tailpiece cam) six-pin rim cylinders are the two standard choices. For an interchangeable core system, look at the BEST 1C five-pin core.
9) Can I swap a 596K29 plug in place of an interchangeable core?
No. The 596K29 AR is a conventional plug that goes inside a Corbin Russwin CL series cylinder and has to be pinned to your AR key system. An interchangeable core pulls out with a control key and drops in without disassembly. If your facility is running IC, you want a core such as the BEST 1CB or a full-size interchangeable core like the Schlage 20-057, not this plug.
10) Is a Kaba Ilco 1539 or 1579 replacement cylinder an equivalent to the Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR?
They solve a different job. The Kaba Ilco 1539 Series is a key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder and the 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder made for Sargent locks - both are complete aftermarket cylinder assemblies for specific lock families. The Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR is the Individual X Class plug that fits inside Corbin Russwin CL3300, CL3500, CL3600, CL3700 and CL3800 series cylinders on the AR keyway, so it keeps the existing Corbin Russwin key system intact rather than introducing a new cylinder and keyway.
11) For a facility standardizing on high-security or patented keying, what alternative is there to the 596K29 AR plug?
The 596K29 AR keeps you inside the Corbin Russwin AR keyway system on CL3300 through CL3800 series cylinders. If the goal is a patented, drill-resistant platform instead, the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant preferred patented interchangeable core 7-pin brass core in the 150 Series. That is a core-based system, so it requires interchangeable-core housings rather than the Corbin Russwin CL series cylinder bodies the 596K29 plug is made for.
12) Will a cylinder pull like the Adams Rite 4024 or 4025 work where the 596K29 AR plug is specified?
No. The Adams Rite 4024 is a cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 is a five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws, both designed for use with Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch hardware, while the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is for the Adams Rite 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch. Those are door pulls with an integral cylinder for narrow stile and wood door deadlocks. The Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR is strictly a replacement plug for Corbin Russwin CL series lock cylinders.
13) I have a residential-style handleset or deadbolt, not a Corbin Russwin CL lock - what cylinder fits instead?
The 596K29 AR is a commercial part for Corbin Russwin CL3300 through CL3800 series cylinders and will not fit residential handlesets or tubular deadbolts. For those, Medeco offers application-specific retrofits: the 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders, the 1065244 is a 5-pin lazy motion rim type cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece, and the 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts.
14) What is the difference between the Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR plug and a Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder?
The Falcon A23161-05 G is a key in lever cylinder in the RU/T Series with a 6-pin G keyway, supplied keyed different with 2 cut keys, and is part of the Q330 Series lock program. The Corbin Russwin 596K29 AR is a 5 and 6-pin Individual X Class plug on the AR keyway for CL3300, CL3500, CL3600, CL3700 and CL3800 series cylinders, and comes in 606 Satin Brass and 626 Satin Chrome. One is a complete keyed cylinder for a Falcon lever lock; the other is the keyed plug component for a Corbin Russwin CL series cylinder.
15) Is this part suitable for commercial buildings or residential doors?
Commercial. The 596K29 AR is a commercial-grade Corbin Russwin part used in office buildings, schools, healthcare, government facilities, retail, warehouses and multi-tenant residential where key control matters. It is not a residential retail cylinder.
16) I need a non-functioning cylinder for a dummy or pull-only application - is the 596K29 AR the right part?
No. The 596K29 AR is a keyed Individual X Class plug meant to restore working key control in Corbin Russwin CL3300 through CL3800 series cylinders. For a dummy application where no key operation is needed, the BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter is the item built for that purpose.
