KSP 417-26D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the KSP 417 mortise housing come with a cam?
No. The 417 tapered head mortise housing ships less cam, so you order the cam separately. It uses a screw-on removable cam, which means you can change the cam later to match the lock function without replacing the housing.
2) Will the KSP 417 housing take a 7-pin small format interchangeable core, or only 6-pin?
The 417 series is built for small format interchangeable cores in either 6-pin or 7-pin, so a 7-pin SFIC figure-8 core drops in the same as a 6-pin.
3) Is the KSP 417 mortise housing the same thing as a Corbin Russwin 8000-CT6 BLUE interchangeable core?
No, they are two different parts that work together. The KSP 417 is a 6 or 7-pin SFIC tapered head mortise housing supplied less cam, meaning it is the cylinder body that mounts in the door or lock and accepts a small format interchangeable core. The Corbin Russwin 8000-CT6 BLUE is the core itself, a 6-pin interchangeable core in a blue construction core finish. If you are keying an opening, you need both a housing and a core; ordering the 417-26D alone will not give you a keyed cylinder, and ordering the core alone gives you nothing to mount it in.
4) How long is the KSP 417 mortise cylinder housing?
It measures 0.97 inch, the standard short mortise housing length used with SFIC cores. That length decides whether the core face sits flush with your trim or escutcheon, so check the existing housing before swapping.
5) What is a tapered head mortise housing used for on an SFIC system?
It is the threaded shell that mortises into the lock and holds a small format interchangeable core. The tapered head seats into countersunk trim or a tapered collar for a flush look, versus a straight or flush head that sits on a flat face. The core itself is bought separately, as is the cam.
6) I need a core to go in an SFIC mortise housing, what can I use?
The 417 housing takes a small format interchangeable core, not a full cylinder. For a temporary keying during construction, the Corbin Russwin 8000-CT6 is a 6-pin interchangeable core in a blue construction core version that swaps out for the permanent core once the job turns over.
7) What should I use with a KSP 417 mortise housing on a job that is still under construction?
During construction it is common to pair an SFIC mortise housing such as the KSP 417, which takes a 6 or 7-pin small format interchangeable core, with a construction core so trades can be keyed temporarily and the permanent core swapped in at turnover. The Corbin Russwin 8000-CT6 BLUE is a 6-pin interchangeable core supplied as a blue construction core for exactly that sequence. Because the 417 housing ships less cam, confirm the cam your lock or application requires separately; the housing uses a screw-on removable cam.
8) I need a keyed cylinder, not a housing - what am I actually missing if I buy the KSP 417?
The KSP 417 is a tapered head mortise housing for a small format interchangeable core, offered in the 417-26D model, and it is sold less cam. It supplies the threaded body and the core cavity only, so it carries no pins, no key and no cam. To complete it you add a small format interchangeable core, such as the Corbin Russwin 8000-CT6 BLUE 6-pin interchangeable core, plus the cam that matches your lock case. Locksmiths ordering the housing and core separately get control over keyway and keying; buyers who want a single finished cylinder should order a pre-assembled keyed mortise cylinder instead.
