Falcon 030917-001-30 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I replace just the tailpiece instead of the whole Falcon cylinder?
Yes. The 030917-001 is sold as a field replacement part so a worn or damaged tailpiece can be swapped without pulling the cylinder or lock body. That is the usual repair when the key turns but the lock will not retract, and the cylinder itself still keys fine.
2) Is the Falcon 030917-001 tailpiece a cylinder, or does it replace a cylinder?
The Falcon 030917-001 is a replacement tailpiece only - the machined part that links the cylinder to the lock chassis on Falcon RU/T Series standard function cylinders and Yale 1801, 5801 and Yale 6-pin LFIC cylinders. If the cylinder body itself is worn or the keying needs to change, a complete cylinder is the part to order instead: the Corbin Russwin 1070 is a 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam, and the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder in Schlage C keyway. The 030917-001 lets a worn tailpiece be swapped in the field without replacing the cylinder or lock body.
3) What should I order if the opening needs a rim cylinder rather than a Falcon RU/T tailpiece?
The Falcon 030917-001 tailpiece serves Falcon RU/T Series standard functions and Yale 1801, 5801 and Yale 6-pin LFIC cylinders, which are mortise and interchangeable core formats. For a rim application, the Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and the 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam; the Corbin Russwin 3070 is a 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece. Those arrive with their tailpiece as part of the cylinder assembly, so no separate tailpiece order is needed.
4) We run interchangeable core keying - does the 030917-001 fit any IC cylinder, or only Yale LFIC?
The Falcon 030917-001 tailpiece is engineered for Falcon RU/T Series standard functions plus Yale 1801, 5801 and Yale 6-pin large format interchangeable core cylinders, so it suits facilities keyed on that Yale LFIC platform. Other interchangeable core families use their own housings and tailpiece geometry: the Corbin Russwin 1080 is a 1-1/2 inch 6-pin LFIC mortise cylinder with an A01 cloverleaf cam for Schlage L9000 mortise locks, the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin full size interchangeable core rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam, and BEST supplies small format cores such as the 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core and the 1C 5-pin core.
5) Is the Falcon 030917-001 tailpiece a genuine Falcon part or aftermarket?
It is a genuine Falcon component, model 030917-001-30, machined to the original tolerances so it engages the RU/T Series and Yale cylinder formats correctly. For a facility standardized on Falcon hardware, that matters more here than on most parts, since tailpiece engagement depth is what drives the lock chassis.
6) Will this tailpiece work in an interchangeable core keying system?
It supports Yale 6-pin LFIC (large format interchangeable core) cylinders, so it works in facilities running interchangeable core keying where the core is pulled with a control key. Note it is the LFIC format, not small format, and not a full-size interchangeable core product like the BEST 1C Series 5-pin core.
7) Does the Falcon 030917-001 include a cylinder or keys?
No. It is the tailpiece alone, the drive bar that links the cylinder to the lock chassis. If you also need the cylinder, that is ordered separately, and keying is handled on the cylinder, not on this part.
8) Will a Medeco or Kaba Ilco retrofit cylinder substitute for the Falcon 030917-001?
No. The Falcon 030917-001 is a tailpiece for Falcon RU/T Series standard functions and Yale 1801, 5801 and Yale 6-pin LFIC cylinders. The Kaba Ilco and Medeco parts that look adjacent are complete cylinders built for different platforms: the Ilco 1539 is a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, the 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent, and the Medeco 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for the Arrow JL interconnected lock and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder. None of those replace a Falcon RU/T tailpiece.
9) For a narrow stile aluminum storefront, is the Falcon 030917-001 the right part?
The Falcon 030917-001 is a commercial tailpiece for Falcon RU/T Series standard function cylinders and Yale 1801, 5801 and Yale 6-pin LFIC cylinders, so it applies where one of those cylinder formats is already in the door. Storefront deadlock openings are usually served by their own hardware: the Adams Rite 4024 cylinder pull mounts with a trim plate for the MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch, the 4025 is a five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws for the same MS1847, and the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 mortise cylinder with five-pin security for doors from 1/2 inch thickness.
10) Is there a Falcon-branded alternative to buying a whole new mortise cylinder when the tailpiece strips?
Yes - that is the purpose of the Falcon 030917-001, a genuine Falcon lock part supplied as a replacement component for RU/T Series standard functions and Yale 1801, 5801 and Yale 6-pin LFIC cylinders. It is precision machined to the original tolerances so the cylinder-to-chassis engagement is restored without pulling the cylinder from the keying system. The full-cylinder route instead means a part like the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 mortise cylinder at 1-1/2 inch length with an A02 straight cam, which brings a new keyway with it.
11) Is the Falcon 030917-001 suitable for residential deadbolt repair?
The Falcon 030917-001 is a commercial part, a tailpiece for Falcon RU/T Series standard function cylinders and Yale 1801, 5801 and Yale 6-pin LFIC cylinders used in offices, schools, healthcare, government and multi-tenant buildings. Residential handleset and deadbolt work is served by different cylinders, such as the Medeco 1012040 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the Medeco 1075127 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, and the Medeco 1065244 5-pin lazy motion rim cylinder supplied with an Emtek tailpiece.
12) Is this tailpiece suitable for high-traffic commercial doors?
Yes, it is a commercial-grade part from Falcon's commercial mechanical lock line, used in offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings, retail, multi-tenant residential, and warehouses. It is not a residential-only component.
