The Medeco 12029006 is a precision-engineered replacement cylinder plug designed specifically for the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt system. Featuring Medeco's acclaimed Biaxial technology with a 6-pin configuration and captive design, this cylinder plug operates with the G3 keyway and is finished in a Flat Black Coated finish. As a factory-grade replacement part, it is purpose-built to restore or upgrade the high-security cylinder function of a compatible Maxum Deadbolt assembly to original performance standards.

Key Features

  • 6-Pin Configuration: Six-pin cylinder design provides an expanded key combination range and enhanced resistance to manipulation compared to standard 5-pin cylinders.
  • Captive Design: Captive plug construction ensures the plug is securely retained within the cylinder housing during operation, preventing removal without proper authorization.
  • G3 Keyway Compatibility: Engineered to operate exclusively with the G3 keyway, ensuring system-level key control and compatibility within the Medeco G3 key management platform.
  • Maxum Deadbolt Specific: Designed as a direct-fit replacement plug for the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt, maintaining the lock's original high-security performance specifications.
  • Flat Black Coated Finish: Flat Black Coated finish provides a professional, low-reflectance aesthetic suitable for commercial applications and consistent with coordinated hardware programs.

Medeco 12029006-22-G3 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Medeco 12029006 plug fit any Medeco cylinder, or only the Maxum deadbolt?
It is built for the Medeco Maxum deadbolt cylinder specifically. The 12029006 is a direct-fit replacement plug for that lock, so it goes back into a Maxum housing and restores the original cylinder function. Don't plan on dropping it into a mortise or rim cylinder body from another Medeco line.
2) Can I key this Medeco plug to my existing Medeco system?
Only if your system is on the G3 keyway and Biaxial. This plug is cut for the G3 keyway exclusively and uses Medeco's Biaxial pin tumbler system, where the key is cut at two angles. If your building's keys are a different Medeco keyway or an original Medeco (non-Biaxial) system, the plug will not accept them.
3) I need a plug for a Corbin Russwin cylinder, not a Medeco. What should I look at?
Wrong platform, the Medeco 12029006 only serves the Medeco Maxum deadbolt on the G3 Biaxial keyway. For Corbin Russwin, the 121K11 plug is the 1000 Series mortise cylinder plug, offered in D2 and L4 keyways, and the 253K66 is the 3000 Series rim cylinder plug. If you're only missing the retaining piece, the 219F88-8 is the Corbin Russwin cylinder plug retainer.
4) Can a Corbin Russwin 253K66 rim cylinder plug be used to repair a Medeco Maxum deadbolt?
No. The Medeco 12029006 is a captive Biaxial 6-pin plug with the G3 keyway, built as a direct-fit replacement for the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt and keyed into the Medeco G3 key control platform. The Corbin Russwin 253K66 is a 3000 series rim cylinder plug, so it belongs to a rim cylinder housing and a Corbin Russwin keyway, not a Maxum deadbolt body. If the job is restoring a Maxum deadbolt to its original high-security function, the 12029006 is the plug that fits; the 253K66 is the part to reach for when the cylinder on the door is a Corbin Russwin 3000 rim cylinder.
5) What is the mortise equivalent if the cylinder being rebuilt is a mortise cylinder rather than a Maxum deadbolt?
The Medeco 12029006 plug is made for the Maxum Deadbolt and will not serve a mortise cylinder. For mortise work, Corbin Russwin offers plug-only parts in the 1000 Series, the 121K11-D2 and the 121K11-L4, both Grade 1 mortise cylinder plugs supplied as the plug alone. The two differ by keyway designation, D2 versus L4, so match the one that corresponds to the keying system already in the building. The Medeco part stays with G3 keyed Maxum deadbolt hardware.
6) What does "captive" mean on this Medeco cylinder plug?
Captive means the plug is retained in the cylinder housing during operation so it cannot be pulled out without proper authorization. Practically, for a locksmith, that changes how the plug comes out for rekeying compared to a standard retainer-clip plug, and it is part of why the Maxum resists plug pulling attacks.
7) What finish is the Medeco 12029006 plug, and will it match my other hardware?
It comes in 622, Flat Black, a flat black coated low-reflectance finish. That is the only finish this plug is offered in, so if the rest of the Maxum deadbolt trim is bright brass or satin chrome, the exposed plug face will read black against it.
8) Does the Medeco 12029006 come with pins and a key, or is it just the plug?
It is the plug itself, a replacement part for the Maxum deadbolt cylinder. Pinning it to your keyway combination is a locksmith operation, so plan on supplying the Biaxial bottom pins, springs and top pins for your G3 system along with cut keys.
9) Our plug is fine but it keeps working loose in the shell. Is a Medeco 12029006 the right order?
Not if the plug itself is undamaged. The Medeco 12029006 is a complete replacement cylinder plug, the captive Biaxial 6-pin unit with the G3 keyway for a Maxum Deadbolt, and it is what to order when the plug is worn, damaged, or being converted. A retention problem on a Corbin Russwin cylinder is addressed by the 219F88-8, a Grade 1 cylinder plug retainer, which is the small retaining component rather than the plug. Confirm which piece has actually failed before ordering, since the two are not interchangeable and belong to different lock platforms.
10) For a facility standardizing on restricted key control, how does the Medeco 12029006 differ from a Corbin Russwin plug-only part?
The Medeco 12029006 uses Biaxial pinning, which requires keys cut at two angles, in a 6-pin captive configuration on the proprietary G3 keyway, so it ties the opening into Medeco's G3 key management program and its duplication controls. The Corbin Russwin plug-only parts, 121K11-D2 and 121K11-L4, are Grade 1 1000 Series mortise cylinder plugs identified by their own keyway designations. Both are commercial replacement parts; the deciding factor is which key system the facility is standardizing on and whether the cylinder in the door is a Maxum deadbolt or a mortise cylinder.
11) Is this Medeco plug meant for residential or commercial use?
Commercial. It is classified as a commercial-grade cylinder plug and is aimed at facilities running restricted key control, offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings and multi-tenant properties, as well as locksmiths doing Medeco rekeying work.
12) What is the full model number I should order this Medeco plug by?
Order it as Medeco 12029006, model designation 12029006-22-G3. The 22 is the flat black finish code and G3 identifies the keyway, so quoting the full string keeps the keyway from being substituted.
