Kaba Ilco 998GA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What Yale keyway does the Ilco 998 key blank cut for?
The Ilco 998 series is a 6-pin blank for Yale cylinders, offered in six keyway styles: 998GA, 998GB, 998GD, 998GE, 998GF and 998GG. Yale uses a family of related keyways, so the letter suffix is the part that matters. Read the keyway stamp off the bow of the key you are duplicating, or off the cylinder plug, and order the matching suffix. Ordering a 998GA when the lock is a GB keyway gives you a blank that will not enter the plug.
2) I'm setting up a master key system on Yale locks. Can I use Ilco 998 blanks for the change keys and master keys?
Yes, provided every cylinder in the system is a 6-pin Yale of the same keyway family. The 998 comes in six keyway styles (998GA, GB, GD, GE, GF, GG), and a master key system is normally built inside a single keyway or across a related group where the master is cut on the keyway that enters all of them. Pull the keyway stamp off each cylinder before you commit to a suffix, because a system that spans two of these letters needs blanks in both.
3) Is the Ilco 998 a replacement key or a blank I have to cut?
It is an uncut blank. The 998 arrives with a full blade and no bitting, so it has to be cut on a duplicator from an existing key or cut to code on a code machine. If you need working keys and have no machine, plan on a locksmith cutting them; the blank itself does nothing until it is bitted.
4) Is the Ilco 998 a commercial key blank or a residential one?
Commercial. The 998 is classed as a commercial blank, which is what you would expect on 6-pin Yale cylinders in office, institutional and multi-family openings rather than a house lockset. Locksmiths and facility shops buying for a keyed system are the usual buyers.
5) What material are Ilco cylinder key blanks made from?
Ilco cylinder blanks are produced in brass or nickel silver, and many are nickel plated for a bright, hard-wearing finish. Nickel silver is the harder of the two and holds a cut edge better under daily use, which is why it turns up on keys that get carried and used every day rather than filed as a record key.
6) Are the Ilco 998 Yale blanks metal head or plastic head?
The Ilco line runs both metal head and plastic head blanks, with plastic heads offered in a range of colors so a maintenance crew can tell one building or one door group from another at a glance. If you are keying a portfolio and want the boiler room key to look different from the suite key, color-coded plastic heads are how that is normally done.
