Corbin Russwin 606K79 57A1 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the 606K79 plug work in my existing Corbin Russwin keying system?
Only if your system runs the 57A1 keyway. The plug ships factory-configured with 57A1, so it keys into Corbin Russwin systems built on that keyway and X Class key control. A different Corbin Russwin keyway means a different plug, not this one.
2) Does the 7-pin X Class plug fit a 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder?
No. The 606K79 plug is built for 3 inch mortise cylinders. A short 1-1/8 inch cylinder, like the Detex MC65, uses a different plug length entirely, so this part won't drop into it.
3) I need a whole mortise cylinder, not just a plug - what should I order instead of the Corbin Russwin 606K79?
The Corbin Russwin 606K79 is a 7-pin X Class replacement plug for 3 inch mortise cylinders, so it is only the plug assembly, not a complete cylinder. If you need a complete mortise cylinder, the Detex MC65 is a mortise cylinder with a Schlage C keyway in a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin configuration, and the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder in the 4036 series. Both are ordered as full cylinders rather than internal components.
4) Can I use a Schlage 20-057 core in place of the Corbin Russwin 606K79 plug?
No. The Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin full size interchangeable core with a convertible tailpiece cam, and the 20-057-C is an FSIC core in the C keyway with a 643E Aged Bronze finish. Those are interchangeable cores that drop into FSIC housings. The Corbin Russwin 606K79 is a 7-pin Individual X Class plug built for 3 inch Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders in the 57A1 keyway, so it serves a different housing and keying system.
5) My opening uses a rim exit device, not a mortise lock - is the 606K79 the right part?
No. The Corbin Russwin 606K79 is made for 3 inch mortise cylinders. For rim applications, Schlage lists the 20-021 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and the 20-022 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam, both supplied with 2 keys. BEST also lists the 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter for openings that need the look without keyed function.
6) Why would a facility specify an X Class plug instead of a standard one?
X Class is a key control designation. It gives a defined security level for master keying programs, so a school district or hospital running restricted keys can keep the plug inside their controlled system when a cylinder gets rebuilt. Standard plugs don't carry that control. The 7-pin configuration also adds master keying depth over a 5-pin core.
7) I want interchangeable cores so I can rekey without a locksmith. Is this plug the right choice?
No. The 606K79 is a keyed plug for a conventional 3 inch mortise cylinder, so rekeying means pinning the plug. If the goal is swapping a core in the field, go with an interchangeable core product: BEST 1CB Peaks 150 Series, the BEST 1CDF drill-resistant 7-pin core, or a Schlage 20-057 full size interchangeable core.
8) Can I use the 606K79 in a rim cylinder or an exit device cylinder?
No. It is specific to 3 inch mortise cylinders. Rim applications, including most exit device trim, take a rim cylinder with a tailpiece cam, such as the Schlage 20-021 with a vertical tailpiece or the 20-022 with a horizontal tailpiece.
9) What is the closest interchangeable core option if my facility wants cores that can be swapped without a locksmith?
The Corbin Russwin 606K79 is a 7-pin X Class plug installed into a 3 inch mortise cylinder. For a swap-in-the-field core program, BEST offers interchangeable cores: the 1CB is a 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder, and the 1CDF is a drill resistant patented interchangeable core in 7-pin brass, also 150 Series. The BEST 1C5 is a standard 5-pin cylinder core. These are core-based systems rather than pinned plugs for a Corbin Russwin mortise housing.
10) What do I order if the cylinder I am replacing is in a key-in-lever or key-in-knob lockset rather than a mortise lock?
The Corbin Russwin 606K79 is a mortise cylinder plug and will not serve a key-in-lever lockset. Kaba Ilco lists the 1539 Series key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder and the 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder, plus the 1579 knob and lever cylinder for Sargent locks. Falcon offers the A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder, an RU/T Series 6-pin G keyway supplied keyed different with 2 cut keys.
11) Is there an equivalent part for a deadbolt rather than a mortise lock?
The Corbin Russwin 606K79 is specific to 3 inch mortise cylinders. For deadbolt cylinders, Kaba Ilco lists the 1549 Series key-in-deadbolt cylinder with a deadbolt function. Medeco lists the 1012040 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the 1075127 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, and the 1065140 5-pin retrofit cylinder for the Arrow JL interconnected lock and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder.
12) We are replacing cylinders on aluminum storefront doors with Adams Rite deadlocks - does the Corbin Russwin 606K79 apply?
The 606K79 is a plug for 3 inch Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders and does not address Adams Rite storefront hardware directly. For MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch systems, Adams Rite lists the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws. For wood door openings using the Adams Rite 5017 deadlock or deadlatch, the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is the matching part.
13) How does pin count on the Corbin Russwin 606K79 compare to other cylinder options when I am setting up a master key system?
The Corbin Russwin 606K79 is a 7-pin Individual X Class plug in the 57A1 keyway, giving seven chambers for master keying within Corbin Russwin keying systems. Among other cylinder options, the BEST 1CDF is also a 7-pin core, the Detex MC65 and Schlage 20-021 and 20-022 rim cylinders are 6-pin, and the BEST 1C5 core and Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder are 5-pin. Pin count must match the system your keys are cut to.
14) Is this a commercial part or is it for residential locks?
Commercial. The 606K79 is part of Corbin Russwin's commercial mechanical lock line and is sold as a replacement part for mortise cylinder assemblies in office buildings, schools, healthcare, government and multi-tenant properties. For residential handleset and deadbolt cylinders you'd be looking at something like the Medeco 1075127 rim-type lazy motion cylinder instead.
15) Which finishes does the Corbin Russwin 606K79 plug come in, and do any comparable cylinders offer a darker finish?
The Corbin Russwin 606K79 7-pin X Class plug is offered in 606 Satin Brass and 626 Satin Chrome. If a darker finish is required for the opening, the Schlage 20-057-C full size interchangeable core is listed in 643E Aged Bronze, though it is an FSIC core in the C keyway rather than a mortise cylinder plug.
