Falcon 030994-001-30 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Falcon 030994-001, and what does it do inside the lock?
It's a tailpiece, the small drive bar that transfers key rotation from the cylinder to the lock's retracting mechanism. Falcon lists it as a replacement part for RU/T Series standard function cylinders in Corbin Russwin compatible applications. You are buying the drive component only, not a cylinder, not a core, and not a key.
2) Will the Falcon 030994-001 tailpiece work with a non-standard function cylinder, like a classroom or storeroom variant?
No. Falcon specifies this tailpiece for RU/T Series standard function applications. Non-standard functions use different drive geometry, so ordering this one for them gets you a part that won't engage correctly. Match the tailpiece to the exact cylinder function you are servicing.
3) My Corbin Russwin mortise lock won't throw the bolt with the key. Do I need a new tailpiece or a new cylinder?
If the key turns freely but the bolt doesn't move, the failure is usually at the drive interface rather than the plug, and the Falcon 030994-001 tailpiece is the replacement for that interface on RU/T Series standard function cylinders. If the key itself binds or won't rotate, the cylinder is the problem: a Corbin Russwin mortise cylinder such as the 1000 Series in 1-1/2 inch with an A02 straight cam, or the 1070 6-pin housing in 1-1/4 inch with an A01 cloverleaf cam, would be the replacement there.
4) Will the Falcon 030994-001 tailpiece work on a rim cylinder for an exit device?
No. The Falcon 030994-001 is built for RU/T Series standard function cylinders in Corbin Russwin compatible cylindrical and mortise lock assemblies. Rim cylinders used behind exit devices have their own tailpiece geometry and are normally supplied complete: the Corbin Russwin 3070 6-pin rim cylinder housing ships with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece, the Schlage 20-021 rim cylinder uses a vertical tailpiece cam and the Schlage 20-022 uses a horizontal one, and the Schlage 20-057 full size interchangeable core rim cylinder uses a convertible tailpiece cam. For an exit device, match the rim cylinder tailpiece orientation the device requires rather than adapting a lock tailpiece.
5) Is the Falcon 030994-001 tailpiece a replacement for a whole cylinder, or do I need a complete cylinder?
The Falcon 030994-001 is a tailpiece only - a replacement part that transfers rotation from an RU/T Series standard function cylinder into the lock mechanism. If the cylinder body itself is worn or you are rekeying to a different system, you need a complete cylinder instead, such as the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 Series mortise cylinder in 1-1/2 inch length with an A02 straight cam, or the Corbin Russwin 1070 Grade 1 Series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam. Order the 030994-001 when the cylinder is sound and only the tailpiece is damaged, stripped, or the wrong length for the lock body.
6) My lock needs a cam, not a tailpiece - what should I order instead of the Falcon 030994-001?
The Falcon 030994-001 is a tailpiece for RU/T Series standard function cylinders, which is the flat bar drive used on cylindrical and knob or lever style applications. Mortise locks are usually driven by a cam instead, and that cam comes as part of the cylinder: the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 Series 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder uses an A02 straight cam, the Corbin Russwin 1070 Grade 1 Series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing uses an A01 cloverleaf cam, and the Corbin Russwin 1080 Grade 1 Series 1-1/2 inch 6-pin large format interchangeable core mortise cylinder uses an A01 cam sized for Schlage L9000 mortise locks. Confirm which drive your lock body accepts before ordering.
7) What part number do I give a supplier for the Falcon RU/T standard function tailpiece?
Order it as Falcon 030994-001. The catalogued model is 030994-001-30, and it ships as a single tailpiece in one configuration, so there's no finish or length choice to specify.
8) I want to standardize keying across a building instead of repairing individual Corbin Russwin cylinders. What should I look at?
A tailpiece like the Falcon 030994-001 only restores an existing cylinder's function, it does nothing for keying. For facility-wide rekeying flexibility, interchangeable core is the route: the Corbin Russwin 1080 Series 1-1/2 inch 6-pin LFIC mortise cylinder, or BEST's full-size interchangeable core line such as the 1CB 150 Series core or the 1CDF drill-resistant patented 7-pin core, let you pull and swap cores without taking locks apart.
9) I want to move these doors onto interchangeable core - does the Falcon 030994-001 help?
No. The Falcon 030994-001 is a tailpiece for RU/T Series standard function cylinders and does not change the keying platform of the lock. To convert to interchangeable core you replace the cylinder or housing: the BEST 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder and the BEST 1CDF drill resistant patented 7-pin brass 150 Series core are small format options, the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin core covers basic SFIC needs, and the Corbin Russwin 1080 Grade 1 Series 1-1/2 inch 6-pin large format interchangeable core mortise cylinder or Schlage 20-057 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder cover full size core applications. The 030994-001 is the right part only when you are keeping the existing standard function cylinder.
10) The knob cylinder in my lock is bad, not just the tailpiece - what is the equivalent replacement?
The Falcon 030994-001 tailpiece only addresses the drive bar on an RU/T Series standard function cylinder. If the plug or pin stack is the problem, replace the cylinder: the Kaba Ilco 1539 Series is a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, the 1599 Series is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder, and the 1579 Series is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent locks. These typically ship with their own tailpiece selection, so verify the tailpiece supplied matches your lock before also ordering the 030994-001.
11) Is the Falcon 030994-001 usable on an aluminum storefront deadlatch?
No. The Falcon 030994-001 is a commercial tailpiece for Corbin Russwin compatible RU/T Series standard function cylinders. Narrow stile aluminum storefront hardware uses its own cylinder set: the Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder is a Grade 1 five-pin cylinder with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness, and the Adams Rite 4024 and 4025 cylinder pulls are designed for the Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock or deadlatch, with the 4026 cylinder pull intended for the 5017 wood door deadlock or deadlatch. Specify from that family for glass front and storefront openings.
12) Does the Falcon 030994-001 work on a deadbolt?
The Falcon 030994-001 is specified for RU/T Series standard function cylinders in Corbin Russwin compatible lock assemblies, not for residential style deadbolt trim. For deadbolt cylinder replacement, look at the Kaba Ilco 1549 Series key-in-deadbolt cylinder, or the Medeco 1012040 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts and the Medeco 1075127 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts. Those carry the tailpiece appropriate to the deadbolt they serve.
13) I have Emtek hardware - is the Falcon 030994-001 the right tailpiece?
No. The Falcon 030994-001 is matched to RU/T Series standard function cylinders on the Corbin Russwin compatible side. For Emtek openings, the Emtek CY4 cylinder is sold individually, the Medeco 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion rim type cylinder supplied 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. Those are the correct path for Emtek trim.
14) Is this Falcon tailpiece suitable for high-traffic commercial doors, or is it a residential part?
Commercial. Falcon builds the 030994-001 to its commercial-grade spec for high-traffic service, and the typical uses named are office buildings, schools, healthcare, government facilities, retail, industrial and warehouse sites, and multi-tenant residential properties.
15) What is the difference between ordering the Falcon 030994-001 and a dummy cylinder?
They solve opposite problems. The Falcon 030994-001 is a functioning drive component - the tailpiece that links an RU/T Series standard function cylinder to the locking mechanism so the key actually throws the lock. A dummy cylinder such as the BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter fills the cylinder hole for appearance only and does not operate anything. Use the 030994-001 on a keyed, operating opening.
16) Can I standardize a facility on one keyway and still use the Falcon 030994-001?
Yes, in the sense that the Falcon 030994-001 is a commercial-grade mechanical drive component and is keyway independent - it does not pin or key anything, it only transfers cylinder rotation on RU/T Series standard function applications. Keyway standardization is set by the cylinders you install, for example the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder in Schlage C keyway, 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin, or the Schlage 20-057-C full size interchangeable core cylinder in C keyway with a 643E aged bronze finish. Keep the tailpiece matched to the lock body and choose the keyway at the cylinder.
