Master Lock 296W17KZ – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Master Lock 296W17KZ cylinder come with keys, or do I have to cut my own?
It ships zero-bitted, meaning the plug has no bitting cut into it. A locksmith cuts the key and pins the cylinder to whatever bitting the site needs, so you can match it to an existing key or bring it into a master key system. If you want a cylinder that arrives keyed and ready to hang, this is not that part.
2) What keyway is the Master Lock 296W17KZ cylinder, and will it work in my existing key system?
The 296W17KZ uses the W17 keyway. It will only accept keys cut on W17 blanks, so it works in a system already built on W17 and will not take keys from a different Master Lock keyway. Check the keyway stamped on your current key or cylinder before ordering.
3) Can I rekey a Master Lock padlock without buying a whole new lock?
That is what the 296W17KZ is for. It is a service replacement cylinder for compatible Master Lock padlocks, so you swap the cylinder and keep the existing lock body and shackle. For a facility rotating keys after a tenant change or a lost key, replacing cylinders is the usual move rather than replacing padlocks.
4) How many pins does the Master Lock 296W17KZ cylinder have?
Five. It is a 5-pin tumbler cylinder, which is what sets how many cuts your key will carry and how many chambers you pin when keying it. If your system is built around a 6-pin bitting, this cylinder will not take that key length of cuts.
5) Can the 296W17KZ be master keyed?
Yes. Because it arrives zero-bitted, a locksmith can pin it with master wafers and cut both a change key and a master key on W17 blanks. That makes it workable for a facility running one master across a group of padlocks while each lock keeps its own change key.
6) What do I order for a Master Lock padlock cylinder replacement - what is the part number?
Ask for Master Lock 296W17KZ. The number breaks down as the 296 cylinder, W17 keyway, Z for zero-bitted, so a different keyway or a factory-keyed version carries a different suffix. Give your supplier the keyway off your existing key if you are matching an installed system.
7) Is the Master Lock 296W17KZ cylinder suitable for a school or hospital, or is it a residential part?
It is classified for commercial use, and Master Lock lists typical applications as office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, warehouses, government buildings, multi-tenant residential and retail. It is a service part stocked for padlock maintenance programs in those settings rather than a homeowner item.
