Master Lock 296W700AKZ – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does zero-bitted mean on the Master Lock 296W700AKZ cylinder, and can I cut my own keys for it?
Zero-bitted means the 296W700AKZ ships with no key cuts assigned, so a locksmith sets the bitting at installation. You pick the combination, cut keys on the W700A keyway blank, and pin the cylinder to match. That is the point of ordering it this way: it drops into a site keying system instead of arriving on a factory combination you have to work around. If you want a cylinder that arrives keyed and ready, a zero-bitted part is the wrong choice.
2) Will the 296W700AKZ cylinder work in any Master Lock padlock?
No. The 296W700AKZ is a service cylinder for compatible Master Lock padlocks only, meaning padlock bodies built to take a 6-pin W700A cylinder. It is not a universal cylinder and it will not retrofit another brand's padlock. Match the padlock model to the cylinder before ordering; if the body was built for a different keyway or pin count, this part will not seat.
3) Can I use the 296W700AKZ to bring padlocks onto the same key as the rest of my facility?
That is what it is built for. Because it comes zero-bitted on the W700A keyway, a locksmith can pin it to an existing W700A master key system, so padlocks on gates, cages and equipment open on the same keys as the rest of the program. The requirement is that your system already runs the W700A keyway; a cylinder cannot be pinned to a keyway it does not have.
4) Is the 296W700AKZ a complete padlock or just the cylinder?
Just the cylinder. The 296W700AKZ is a replacement service part, the keyed plug assembly that goes into a compatible Master Lock padlock body. No shackle, no body, and no keys cut. If you need a working lock out of the box, order a padlock, not this.
5) Is a 6-pin padlock cylinder worth it over a 5-pin for a commercial site?
Six pins give you more distinct key changes and more resistance to picking than a five-pin plug, which matters when one keyway has to carry a whole facility's master system without duplicate cuts colliding. The 296W700AKZ is a 6-pin commercial-grade cylinder for exactly that case. For a handful of padlocks with no master keying, the extra pin chamber buys you less.
6) Do I need a locksmith to install the Master Lock 296W700AKZ, or can maintenance staff do it?
Plan on a locksmith or a trained security tech. The cylinder arrives zero-bitted, so somebody has to choose the bitting, pin the plug and cut keys on W700A blanks before it does anything. Maintenance staff can swap a pre-keyed cylinder; they generally cannot originate one. Budget for key blanks and cutting alongside the part.
7) We re-key padlocks after every tenant turnover. Is buying replacement cylinders better than buying new padlocks?
For a property with recurring turnover, swapping the cylinder keeps the padlock body, shackle and mounting in service and only changes what controls the key. The 296W700AKZ is stocked for that workflow: a commercial service cylinder on the W700A keyway, zero-bitted so each turnover gets a fresh combination. It only works where the existing padlocks accept this 6-pin W700A cylinder.
