Master Lock 296KAW17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does keyed alike mean on the Master Lock 296KAW17 cylinder, and can I run one key across a building?
Keyed alike means every padlock fitted with a 296KAW17 cylinder opens with the same key. For a maintenance crew or property manager, that's one key on the ring instead of a dozen, covering gates, storage cages, and equipment across a site. Order the cylinders together so they carry the matching key cut.
2) Will the Master Lock 296KAW17 cylinder fit my padlock?
It's a genuine Master Lock service part, built to fit supported Master Lock padlock models that take a 5-pin cylinder with the W17 keyway. It is not a universal cylinder, so match it against the padlock model you're servicing before you swap. It will not work in another brand's padlock.
3) Do I have to replace the whole padlock if the cylinder is worn or the keys are lost?
No. The 296KAW17 is a field-serviceable replacement cylinder, so you pull the old cylinder and drop this one in rather than buying a new padlock body. That's the point of the Master Lock service parts program, and it's how most MRO shops handle a rekey after a key goes missing or an employee leaves.
4) What is the W17 keyway and why does it matter when ordering a Master Lock cylinder?
W17 is a specific Master Lock keyway profile, and it decides whether your existing keys will enter the plug at all. If the padlocks you're standardizing on already run W17, this cylinder keeps them on one key family. If they run a different Master Lock keyway, the key won't enter and you need the cylinder cut for that keyway instead.
5) Can I use these cylinders to standardize padlocks across a school or warehouse?
That's the typical use. Fitting the same keyed alike 296KAW17 cylinder across padlocks in warehouses, schools, retail, healthcare, government buildings, and multi-tenant residential puts every one of those locks on a single key. Keep a few spare cylinders on the shelf so a lost key means a cylinder swap on the affected locks, not a site-wide relock.
6) Is a 5-pin cylinder enough security for commercial padlocks?
Five-pin tumbler construction is the standard commercial padlock cylinder format, and Master Lock designates the 296KAW17 for commercial rather than residential use. It's the same build as the original factory cylinder in compatible padlocks, so swapping it in doesn't drop the security level of the lock.
