Medeco CT-Y35 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Medeco CT-Y35 tailpiece actually do in a Sargent lock?
The CT-Y35 is the cylinder tailpiece, the link between the lock cylinder and the locking mechanism. It carries the rotation of the key-turned cylinder plug into the lockset so the bolt throws. Medeco builds it for Sargent locking hardware, so it is the piece you replace when the key turns but the bolt does nothing.
2) Do I have to replace the whole Sargent cylinder if the tailpiece is worn or broken?
No. The CT-Y35 is sold as a standalone replacement part, so a worn or bent tailpiece can be swapped in the field without pulling a new cylinder or a new lockset. That is the usual repair for a Sargent opening where the key rotates freely but the latch or bolt is not being driven.
3) Will the Medeco CT-Y35 tailpiece work on Kwikset, Schlage or Yale locks?
No. The CT-Y35 is cut for Sargent lock cylinders specifically. Tailpieces are brand and lock-family specific in both length and the shape of the drive tab, so a Sargent-spec tailpiece should not be substituted into another manufacturer's lockset. Order the tailpiece Medeco lists for the brand of lock you are servicing.
4) Is the CT-Y35 a genuine Medeco part or an aftermarket copy?
Genuine Medeco. The CT-Y35 comes out of Medeco's own tools, parts and accessories line as an authentic replacement component, so the cylinder-to-lockset interface behaves the way the assembly was engineered to behave. For locksmiths maintaining a Medeco-cylindered Sargent opening, that keeps the whole assembly on OEM parts.
5) I manage a building with dozens of Sargent locks. Can I stock one tailpiece part number for all of them?
Not blindly. The CT-Y35 is the Medeco tailpiece matched to Sargent lock hardware, but Sargent builds cylindrical, mortise and other lock families, and tailpiece drive and length vary by family. Pull one existing tailpiece and match it before stocking a quantity of CT-Y35 for the whole property.
6) Is this tailpiece suitable for commercial door hardware or is it a residential part?
It is a commercial part. Medeco classes the CT-Y35 as commercial-grade door hardware for mechanical lock service, which is where you find it in practice: office buildings, schools, hospitals, government facilities, retail, warehouses, and multi-tenant residential running commercial Sargent hardware.
