Medeco CT-Y78 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Medeco CT-Y78 tailpiece actually do, and where does it go in the lock?
The CT-Y78 is a cylinder tailpiece, the flat metal blade that transfers rotation from the back of the cylinder into the lock body so the latch or bolt retracts. It is the service part you replace when a tailpiece is bent, worn, or sheared, not the cylinder itself. Medeco specifies it for LSDA lock systems.
2) Do I get a cylinder with the Medeco CT-Y78, or just the tailpiece?
Just the tailpiece. The CT-Y78 ships as a single replacement component for the back of a compatible LSDA mechanical lock cylinder. If the cylinder itself is worn or you are rekeying to a Medeco keyway, you need to order the cylinder separately.
3) Is there more than one version of the CT-Y78 to choose from, like a length or finish option?
No options to specify. The CT-Y78 is sold as one configuration, so there is no length, finish, or handing choice to make on the order. You order the part number as-is.
4) My tenant's key turns but the latch doesn't retract. Is a tailpiece like the CT-Y78 the fix?
That symptom (cylinder turning freely without operating the lock) points at the tailpiece, which is the link between cylinder and lock body. On LSDA mechanical lock cylinders, the CT-Y78 is the Medeco replacement for a worn or damaged tailpiece and lets you repair the lock rather than replace the whole unit.
5) Is the CT-Y78 tailpiece rated for commercial door traffic?
It is a commercial part. Medeco classes the CT-Y78 as commercial rather than residential, and it's built to their commercial-grade standards for service work on office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential, and government facilities.
