Master Lock 296KAW1 2395 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Master Lock 296KAW1 - a whole padlock or just the cylinder?
It is the cylinder only. The 296KAW1 is a replacement pin cylinder with the W1 keyway, sold as a service part so a padlock can be re-cylindered instead of scrapping the whole lock body. If you need a complete lock, this is not it.
2) What key alike numbers and pin counts does the 296KAW1 cylinder come in?
Two builds: keyed alike 2395 with a 4-pin cylinder, and keyed alike 2001 with a 5-pin cylinder. The alike number is what ties your locks together, so order the same number across every padlock that has to open on one key. Mixing 2395 and 2001 gives you two separate key groups.
3) Can I keep my existing keys if I install this cylinder?
No. The 296KAW1 ships keyed alike to a set factory group (2395 or 2001) and comes with that keying, so the padlock will operate on the new key set, not your old one. Plan to reissue keys for every lock you re-cylinder, or order all of them to the same alike number so one key covers the group.
4) Will this cylinder fit any Master Lock padlock?
Only Master Lock padlocks built for the W1 keyway cylinder. The 296KAW1 is a direct service replacement for compatible Master Lock padlock bodies; it is not a universal cylinder and will not drop into another brand's padlock or into a Master Lock model that takes a different keyway. Check the keyway stamped on the lock you are servicing before ordering.
5) Does a 4-pin or 5-pin cylinder matter for key control?
It changes how many differs and how much cross-key resistance you get. The 5-pin version (supplied on the 2001 alike group) has more pin chambers than the 4-pin version supplied on the 2395 group, so for a facility standardizing key control across many padlocks the 5-pin build is the tighter option. Both are W1 keyway cylinders.
6) Is the 296KAW1 suitable for a commercial facility keying program?
That is what it is built for. Master Lock lists it as a commercial-grade service cylinder, and facilities teams use it to hold a keyed alike grouping together across office buildings, warehouses, schools, healthcare, government, retail and multifamily properties as padlocks get serviced. Order every lock in a group to the same alike number and one key runs the set.
7) Do I need a locksmith to swap this cylinder into a padlock?
A maintenance tech who has opened a padlock body before can do it; the 296KAW1 is sold as a field-serviceable cylinder for exactly that purpose. The job is pulling the old cylinder from a compatible Master Lock body and seating the new W1 cylinder, then reissuing the keys that come with the alike group you ordered.
