Master Lock 296KAW15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Master Lock 296KAW15 - is it a padlock or just the cylinder?
It is the cylinder only, not a complete padlock. The 296KAW15 is a 5-pin replacement service cylinder for compatible Master Lock padlocks, sold as an OEM service part so a lock can be re-cylindered in the field instead of scrapping the whole padlock. If you need a working lock out of the box, order a padlock, not this part.
2) What does keyed alike mean on the 296KAW15 cylinder, and will one key run all of them?
Keyed alike means every cylinder in that keyed-alike group operates on the same key, so a maintenance tech carries one key instead of a ring. That is the point of ordering the 296KAW15 across a building or a fleet: re-cylinder multiple padlocks and bring them all onto a single key. Cylinders from different keyed-alike groups will not match each other, so order the ones you want matched together.
3) What is the W15 keyway on this Master Lock cylinder and does it matter which keyway I order?
The keyway is the key profile the cylinder accepts, and the 296KAW15 is cut for W15. It matters because a key on a different Master Lock keyway will not enter it. If your site is already standardized on W15 keys, this cylinder drops into that key system; if your existing keys are a different profile, you need the cylinder in that keyway instead.
4) Is a 5-pin cylinder enough security for a commercial padlock, or should I look at higher pin counts?
Five pins is the standard commercial padlock cylinder configuration and is what the 296KAW15 uses. It gives enough key differs for facility and fleet key control while staying serviceable in the field. If your spec calls for a restricted or high-security key system with patent-protected key control, a 5-pin standard keyway like W15 is not that; you would need a high-security cylinder line instead.
5) Can I rekey my Master Lock padlocks instead of buying new locks?
Yes, that is what this part is for. Swapping in the 296KAW15 service cylinder restores lock function and changes the key on a compatible Master Lock padlock without replacing the padlock body or shackle. For property managers dealing with a lost master key or a turned-over tenant, re-cylindering the existing locks is the cheaper route and keeps the hardware on the door consistent.
6) I am ordering for a locksmith shop - what do I need to specify to get the right Master Lock replacement cylinder?
Three things decide it: the keyway (this one is W15), the pin count (5-pin), and the keying configuration (keyed alike rather than keyed different or master keyed). Master Lock part number 296KAW15 covers all three. If the customer's existing key is a different profile or they need each lock on its own key, that is a different cylinder part number.
7) Is this cylinder suitable for warehouse and outdoor gate padlock service, or is it a residential part?
It is classed for commercial use. Typical work for it is warehouse and industrial padlock repair, fleet and equipment access, storage unit and retail security servicing, and key control on multi-unit property. MRO and institutional buyers use it to keep a standing key system intact as locks get serviced.
