Medeco CT-F37 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Medeco CT-F37 and what does it do inside a lock?
The CT-F37 is a cylinder tailpiece, the small driver bar that transfers the turn of the cylinder plug to the lock mechanism behind it. Medeco builds it for Schlage-format lock cylinders, so it engages the cylinder on one end and the lock's retractor or cam on the other. It is a replacement part, not a complete cylinder, so you need a working cylinder and lock body already in the door.
2) Will the Medeco CT-F37 tailpiece work with a Schlage cylinder?
Yes. The CT-F37 is built specifically for Schlage-format lock cylinders and is the tailpiece Medeco supplies for that application, so it mates with Schlage-format cylinder assemblies rather than a mortise cam setup.
3) I am rekeying a building to Medeco but keeping the Schlage lock bodies. Do I need this tailpiece?
If you are dropping Medeco cylinders into existing Schlage-format lock bodies, the tailpiece is the piece that has to match on both ends, and the CT-F37 is Medeco's tailpiece for that Schlage-format application. Ordering it with the cylinders avoids a stalled install where the cylinder turns but nothing retracts.
4) Is the CT-F37 tailpiece rated for commercial door use or is it a residential part?
It is a commercial part. Medeco classifies the CT-F37 as commercial-grade, intended for high-use openings such as office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, government buildings and multi-tenant residential with commercial-grade hardware.
5) Does the Medeco CT-F37 work on electrified locks?
No. The CT-F37 is a mechanical lock part and is meant for non-electrified cylinder assemblies. If you are servicing an electrified lock, the tailpiece requirement comes from that lock's own hardware, not from this part.
6) Is the CT-F37 a complete cylinder or just the tailpiece?
Just the tailpiece. One CT-F37 ships as a single replacement component under model CT-F37; the cylinder, plug, pins, keys and any screws come from the cylinder or lock you are servicing.
7) Are there different versions or finishes of the CT-F37 to choose from?
No options to specify. The CT-F37 is sold as one configuration, so there is no length, finish or handing choice to make on the order.
