Master Lock 296W15KZ – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does zero-bitted mean on the Master Lock 296W15KZ cylinder, and can I key it myself?
Zero-bitted means the cylinder ships uncut, with no bitting in it. You supply the cuts, so a locksmith or keying center can bit it to any combination you need, whether that is a standalone change key or a code that drops into an existing master key system. If you need a cylinder that arrives already keyed to a code, a zero-bitted cylinder is not what you want.
2) Will the 296W15KZ cylinder work with my existing Master Lock keys?
Only if your system is on the W15 keyway. The 296W15KZ uses the W15 key section, so the key blank has to match that profile before bitting matters at all. Because it comes zero-bitted, a locksmith can then cut it to your existing change key or master key code. Padlocks on a different Master Lock keyway will not accept it.
3) Can I use this cylinder to re-key padlocks instead of replacing the whole lock?
That is exactly what it is for. It is an OEM service part for compatible Master Lock padlock bodies, so on a padlock that takes a W15 5-pin cylinder you swap the cylinder and keep the body, shackle and mounting in place. For a facility running dozens of padlocks, that is a cylinder-level re-key rather than a fleet of new locks.
4) Is this a 5-pin or 6-pin cylinder?
The 296W15KZ is a 5-pin tumbler cylinder. That matters when you are pinning it into a master key system, since the number of pin chambers sets how many usable key changes and master levels you can build. Order 5-pin key blanks and pin kits for the W15 section to service it.
5) Does the 296W15KZ come with keys?
Treat it as a cylinder only. Because it is supplied zero-bitted, there is no finished key to ship with it, so plan on sourcing W15 key blanks separately and cutting them to whatever bitting you pin the cylinder to.
6) I manage a property and just need padlocks that match each other. Is this the right thing to order?
Probably not on its own. This is a bare 5-pin cylinder with no cuts in it, so it needs a locksmith with a code machine and W15 blanks before it does anything. If you simply want a set of padlocks that open with one key, order keyed-alike padlocks instead. Buy the 296W15KZ when you already have Master Lock padlock bodies worth keeping and a keying source to bit the cylinders.
7) Is this cylinder rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
It is classed as a commercial part, built to commercial standards for padlock service work in warehouses, schools, municipal buildings and retail properties. It is a cylinder and key service part, not a residential retail item.
