Medeco CT-Y49 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Medeco CT-Y49 and what part of the lock does it go in?
The CT-Y49 is a cylinder tailpiece, the small driver bar that transmits rotation from a Medeco cylinder into the lockbody. It is a Medeco replacement part for Falcon and Schlage lock platforms, so it is what you order when the cylinder turns but the lock does not follow, or when a tailpiece is missing after a cylinder swap.
2) Will the Medeco CT-Y49 tailpiece work on Schlage locks, or only Falcon?
Both. The CT-Y49 is specified for Falcon and Schlage locking platforms, which is why it comes up on mixed-hardware buildings where some openings are Falcon and others Schlage. It is intended to be paired with a Medeco cylinder driving those lockbodies, not as a generic tailpiece for any brand.
3) Is the CT-Y49 tailpiece a genuine Medeco part or an aftermarket copy?
It is Medeco's own replacement component, sold within their tools, parts and accessories line. For a locksmith servicing a Medeco cylinder, that matters because the tailpiece tolerance sets how cleanly the cam motion reaches the lockbody.
4) Is this tailpiece meant for commercial hardware or residential locks?
Commercial. The CT-Y49 is rated for commercial applications and is the tailpiece a facilities or MRO buyer stocks for Falcon and Schlage openings in offices, schools, healthcare and government buildings. A residential Schlage knob or deadbolt is a different service part.
5) Do I need anything besides the CT-Y49 to finish a Medeco cylinder swap?
The CT-Y49 is the tailpiece only. The Medeco cylinder itself, plus any cylinder retaining screws or clips the host Falcon or Schlage lockbody uses, come separately. Order it when the cylinder is already on hand or already installed and only the drive linkage needs replacing.
6) Can I use the CT-Y49 to rekey or re-pin a Medeco cylinder?
No. Rekeying happens in the cylinder plug, not the tailpiece. The CT-Y49 supports that work by restoring correct cylinder-to-lockbody engagement after service, but it carries no pinning and does not change keying in any way.
