Medeco 336B01 6 Pin Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) — Alphabet, T & W Series Keyways

The Medeco B Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) is an economic and efficient solution for rekeying needs in commercial door hardware applications. Available in a standard 6 pin format and compatible with established industry standard Alphabet, T Series, and W Series keyways, this SFIC is engineered to retrofit existing Schlage and other manufacturers' SFIC systems — significantly reducing installation time and service costs. Constructed from solid brass with a reinforced sleeve design, the Medeco B SFIC delivers exceptional durability and pick resistance for heavy-duty commercial use. No dealer contract is required to purchase, and cores are available through Medeco and authorized distributors.

Key Features

  • Solid Brass Construction: Full solid brass body with a reinforced sleeve design provides added strength, durability, and long-term reliability in high-traffic commercial applications.
  • Pick-Resistant Pin Design: Spool-shaped top and bottom pins add a meaningful measure of pick resistance, enhancing security over standard pin tumbler cores.
  • Solid Nickel Silver Bottom Pins: Nickel silver bottom pins increase wear resistance for extended service life under frequent use conditions.
  • Tool-Free Rekeying by Non-Technical Personnel: Cylinders can be quickly and easily changed using a special control key — no disassembly required — allowing cores to be swapped without calling outside service personnel, reducing rekeying expense.
  • Individual Pin Chamber Caps: Each pin chamber features individual caps for ease of servicing and maintenance in the field.
  • Flexible Keying Options: Locks can be configured keyed alike, keyed different, or master keyed to meet specific facility security requirements.
  • Broad Keyway Compatibility: Available in established industry standard Alphabet Series, T Series, and W Series keyways for versatile retrofit applications.
  • No Contract Required: Dealers do not need a contract to purchase Medeco B SFICs, simplifying procurement through Medeco and authorized distributors.
  • Multiple Finish Options: Available in 14 finishes including Bright Brass (05), Satin Brass (06), Antique Brass (09), Satin Brass Blackened (10), Bright Bronze (11), Satin Bronze (12), Oil Rubbed Bronze (13), Bright Nickel (18), Satin Nickel (19), Antique Nickel (20), Black (22), Dark Bronze (24), Bright Chrome (25), and Satin Chrome (26).

Medeco 336B010-06-A1CS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Medeco 336B01 SFIC core drop into my existing Schlage small format housings?
Yes. The Medeco 336B01 is a 6-pin small format interchangeable core built to the industry-standard SFIC figure-eight housing, and it is listed as compatible with Schlage SFIC systems. It is intended as a retrofit into existing Schlage and other manufacturers' SFIC hardware, so you swap the core rather than replace the lock body.
2) Which keyways can I get the Medeco B 6-pin SFIC in?
Twenty-seven keyway choices: Best keyways AB, BB, CB, DB, EB, FB, GB, HB, JB, KB, LB, MB, QB, RB, TA, TB, TC, TD, TE, WA, WB, WC, WG, WH and WY, plus Arrow keyways 1C and 1D. If your building is already running an A-Q alphabet, T Series or W Series system, order the core in the same keyway your existing keys are cut to so the new core falls into the master key system.
3) Does the 336B01 come pinned to my key, or do I have to pin it myself?
It ships sub-assembled. That means a locksmith or in-house shop finishes the pinning to your key bitting, which is how you get it keyed alike, keyed different, or brought into an existing master key system. If you don't pin cores in house, plan on a locksmith combinating them before install.
4) Is this a 6-pin or 7-pin core, and can I mix it with 7-pin cores in the same system?
The 336B01 is a 6-pin core. Six and seven pin SFIC systems are keyed differently, so if your facility was built on a 7-pin master key system, order the 7-pin Medeco B core instead and keep the pin count consistent across the site. The housing itself is the same small format figure-eight either way.
5) Do I need a control key to change these cores out, and can my maintenance staff do it?
Core swaps are done with a control key, no tools and no disassembly of the lock. That is the point of small format interchangeable core: non-technical staff can pull a core and drop in a replacement in seconds after a tenant turnover or lost key, without a locksmith trip charge. You do need the matching control key for your system, so keep it controlled.
6) What finishes does the Medeco B SFIC core ship in?
Two orderable finishes on the 6-pin core: 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. 626 is the usual match for satin chrome and brushed stainless lever and cylindrical trim; 606 pairs with satin brass hardware. Since the core face is the only part that shows, most facilities standardize on 626.
7) Is this core rated for heavy commercial traffic like a school or hospital?
It carries a Grade 1 heavy duty commercial rating and is built for commercial use. The body is solid brass with a reinforced sleeve, and the bottom pins are solid nickel silver for wear resistance under constant keying. That combination is what holds up in schools, healthcare, government buildings and high-traffic retail entries.
8) How much pick resistance do I actually get over a standard SFIC core?
The Medeco B core uses spool-shaped top and bottom pins, which is a real step up in pick resistance from a plain pin tumbler core because spools set false and fight single-pin picking. Each pin chamber also has its own cap, so a locksmith can service one chamber in the field rather than tearing the whole core down.
9) Do I have to be a contracted Medeco dealer to buy these cores?
No contract is required for the Medeco B SFIC line. That is the practical difference from Medeco's restricted high-security keyways: the B series uses open, industry-standard Best and Arrow keyways, so a property manager or in-house shop can buy and stock them without signing a dealer agreement.
10) Is the face of this Medeco SFIC plain or keyed with a logo cutout?
Plain face. There's no disc or logo cap on the front, so it presents flat in the lock and matches the plain-face cores already in most Best and Schlage SFIC installs.
