Pro-Lok PKX-TR-H – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a rake pick used for, and when would a locksmith use it instead of a single-pin pick?
A rake pick is worked by sliding it rapidly past the pin stack so the pins get bumped onto the shear line. The Pro-Lok Traditional Rake Pick with Handle is built for that raking technique, which is the fast approach on lower-security pin tumbler cylinders. Single-pin picking is the slower, more controlled method you fall back on when raking will not set the stack.
2) What material is the Pro-Lok Traditional Rake Pick made of, and will it rust in a service truck?
Tempered stainless steel, deburred and burnished to a soft luster, and described as rust proof. That matters for a pick that lives in a van or a pouch through weather. Construction is smooth and rivetless, which is what keeps a thin pick blade from snapping at a weak point.
3) Does the Pro-Lok rake pick come with a handle, or do I need to buy a pick handle separately?
The handle is part of the tool. Pro-Lok model PKX-TR-H is the handled version of the traditional rake, so there is nothing else to buy to use it. Handled picks give you more control on the raking stroke than a bare-shank pick held between your fingers.
4) Is a rake pick enough on its own, or do I need a tension wrench too?
A pick alone will not open a cylinder. Raking only positions the pins on the shear line; you still need a tension wrench to hold the plug and turn it as the pins set. Plan on a tension tool alongside the PKX-TR-H if you do not already carry one.
5) What is the model number for the Pro-Lok traditional rake pick with handle?
Pro-Lok PKX-TR-H. That is the traditional rake profile with the handle attached; order by that designation to avoid getting a bare-shank pick or a different rake profile.
