Medeco 12029006 Cylinder Plug for Maxum Deadbolt, Captive Biaxial 6-Pin, G3 Keyway

The Medeco 12029006-13-G3 is a precision-engineered replacement cylinder plug designed specifically for the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt. Featuring Medeco's renowned Biaxial technology, this captive 6-pin plug operates on the G3 keyway and is finished in Oil Rubbed Bronze, making it a reliable and secure replacement component for commercial-grade deadbolt applications. As a direct replacement part, it ensures continued high-security performance in existing Maxum Deadbolt installations without compromising the lock's original design intent.

Key Features

  • Biaxial Pin Technology: Medeco's Biaxial design requires keys to be cut at precise angles in addition to standard depths, dramatically increasing key combination possibilities and resistance to unauthorized key duplication.
  • Captive Plug Design: The captive configuration keeps the plug securely retained within the cylinder body, preventing removal without the proper tool or key, an important anti-tampering feature for high-security applications.
  • 6-Pin Configuration: Six-pin cylinder construction provides a greater number of key combinations compared to standard 5-pin cylinders, enhancing security and resistance to picking and bypass attempts.
  • G3 Keyway: Operates exclusively on the restricted G3 keyway, supporting key control programs that limit unauthorized key duplication and protect access integrity over time.
  • Oil Rubbed Bronze Finish: The Oil Rubbed Bronze (finish code 13) provides an attractive, durable aesthetic that coordinates with complementary door hardware in residential and commercial settings.
  • Maxum Deadbolt Compatibility: Engineered as a direct replacement plug for the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt series, ensuring a precise fit and restoration of original locking performance.

Medeco 12029006-13-G3 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Medeco 12029006 plug work with my existing Medeco keys?
Only if your system runs on the G3 keyway. The plug is cut exclusively for the restricted G3 keyway with Medeco Biaxial pinning, so keys from any other Medeco keyway will not enter it. If your building is keyed on a different Medeco keyway, you need the plug for that keyway instead.
2) Is the Corbin Russwin 253K66 rim cylinder plug an equivalent to the Medeco 12029006 Maxum deadbolt plug?
No. The Medeco 12029006-13-G3 is a cylinder plug built as a replacement for the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt, using Medeco captive Biaxial 6-pin construction on the restricted G3 keyway. The Corbin Russwin 253K66 is a 3000 rim cylinder plug, so it serves a rim cylinder rather than a Maxum deadbolt cylinder, and it is a different manufacturer's keying platform. The two are not interchangeable in the same cylinder body.
3) What should I use if the cylinder I am servicing is a mortise cylinder rather than a Maxum deadbolt?
The Medeco 12029006-13-G3 plug is engineered as a direct replacement for the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt cylinder. For a mortise cylinder, Corbin Russwin offers plug-only parts for its 1000 Series mortise cylinders, the 121K11-D2 and the 121K11-L4, which differ from one another by keyway designation (D2 and L4). Those are Grade 1 1000 Series mortise cylinder plugs and follow Corbin Russwin keying rather than Medeco Biaxial.
4) My cylinder plug keeps backing out of the housing. Do I need the Medeco 12029006 plug or a retainer?
Those are two different parts. The Medeco 12029006-13-G3 is the plug itself, a captive Biaxial 6-pin plug on the G3 keyway whose captive design keeps it retained in the Maxum Deadbolt cylinder body. If the plug itself is sound and only the retaining hardware has failed on a Corbin Russwin cylinder, the part that does that job is the Corbin Russwin 219F88-8 Grade 1 cylinder plug retainer. Replace the plug when the pinning or keyway is the problem; replace the retainer when only the retention is.
5) What does captive mean on a Medeco cylinder plug?
The captive design keeps the plug retained inside the cylinder body so it cannot be pulled out without the correct key or the proper Medeco tool. It is an anti-tamper feature, and it also means service is a job for a locksmith with the right tooling rather than a quick field swap.
6) What does Biaxial mean on this Medeco plug, and why does it matter for key control?
Biaxial pinning requires each key cut to be at a precise angle as well as a precise depth. That multiplies the number of usable key combinations and makes unauthorized duplication much harder. Paired with the restricted G3 keyway, that is what lets a facility run a controlled key program rather than letting tenants copy keys at a hardware counter.
7) I need a plug retainer, not a plug. Is this the right part?
No. The Medeco 12029006 is the cylinder plug itself, the keyed core that turns. A retainer is the separate piece that holds a plug in place, for example the Corbin Russwin 219F88-8 plug retainer on Corbin Russwin cylinders.
8) We standardize on Corbin Russwin. Can we keep our keyway and still service a Maxum deadbolt with one of their plugs?
No. The Medeco 12029006-13-G3 operates exclusively on the restricted G3 keyway with Medeco Biaxial pinning, where keys are cut at angles as well as depths. Corbin Russwin plug-only parts such as the 121K11-D2 and 121K11-L4 are 1000 Series mortise cylinder plugs on Corbin Russwin keyways, and the 253K66 is a 3000 rim cylinder plug. A Maxum deadbolt cylinder has to be serviced with the Medeco plug; standardizing the keyway across both platforms means changing the cylinder, not the plug.
9) Is the Medeco 12029006 a commercial part or a residential one?
It is classed as a commercial replacement part, and it gets used for office buildings, healthcare, schools, government facilities, retail and multi-tenant residential where a restricted key program is already in place.
