Sargent F183-172 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which cam do I order with a Sargent KESO F183-170 mortise cylinder for a 16 or 92 function mortise lock?
For the inside cylinder of a 16 or 92 function Sargent mortise lock, order the shorter #105 cam, part number 13-2522. The standard offset cam (13-2563) is too long for those functions. The 105 cam is also what the 78 and 8216 function inside cylinder uses. The F183-170 cylinder is ordered with the cam selected up front: 101, 105, 106, or Standard.
2) Can a Sargent KESO removable core mortise cylinder be used in an Adams Rite lock?
Yes, with the right cam. The F183-170 removable core mortise cylinder is offered with the ADAMS RITE 101 cam, part number 13-2521, and 101 is one of the four cam choices you pick when ordering. Specify the 101 cam rather than the Sargent standard offset cam (13-2563), which is cut for Sargent mortise lock bodies.
3) What length Sargent F183-170 mortise cylinder do I need for my door?
Four lengths are made: 1-1/4, 1-3/8, 1-1/2, and 1-3/4 inch. Cylinder length is driven by door thickness plus any trim or escutcheon stacked in front of the lock body, not by the door alone. Measure from the lock case face to the outside of the trim, and go up a length if the cylinder would sit recessed. The collar is ordered separately, so you are not limited to what ships in the box for taking up a small gap.
4) What is the advantage of a removable core mortise cylinder over a conventional one for a building I manage?
Rekeying. With the KESO F1 removable core system, a control key pulls the core out of the cylinder housing and a new core drops in, so a turned-over unit or a lost key is handled at the door in seconds with no disassembly of the mortise lock and no pinning on site. A conventional mortise cylinder has to be unscrewed from the lock body and repinned or replaced. On a portfolio of doors that difference is the whole reason to standardize on removable core. Keying is specified at order: standard keying, keyed different, or keyed alike.
5) Can I order Sargent KESO F183-170 cylinders keyed alike across a group of doors?
Yes. Keying is a required selection on the F183-170: standard keying, KD keyed different, or KA keyed alike. KA is what you want when a suite, a mechanical room group, or a run of tenant doors should all open on one key; KD gives every cylinder its own key. Because these are removable core, the keying lives in the KESO F1 core, so a group can be re-grouped later by swapping cores rather than by buying cylinders again.
6) What finish does the KESO F1 core itself come in, and does it have to match the cylinder housing?
The core ships in either 4 or 26D finish, and it does not have to match the housing. The F183-170 housing is available in 15 finishes, from 03 bright brass and 04 satin brass through 10B dark oxidized satin bronze, 14 and 15 nickel, 20D dark statuary bronze, 26D satin chrome, 32 and 32D stainless, and BSP black or WSP white suede powder coat. The core face is a small exposed area, so most jobs pick the housing finish to match the rest of the trim on the opening and accept the core as supplied.
7) Will a KESO F1 core work in my existing Sargent cylinders?
The F183-170 is a KESO F1 system cylinder, and the core is what determines the keying. KESO F1 is its own key system, so cores and keys from it are not interchangeable with other Sargent keyway families. If a building is already on KESO F1, these mortise cylinders extend that system directly. If it is on a different Sargent keyway, the cylinders and cores both change, and that is a system-level decision, not a per-door one.
8) Is the Sargent F183-170 cylinder a replacement part or a complete lock?
It is the cylinder only, the keyed part that threads into a mortise lock case. It does not include the mortise lock body, the trim, or the lever. If you are replacing worn or rekeyed hardware in an existing Sargent mortise lock, this is the piece you swap. If the lock case itself is failing, you need a mortise lock body, not a cylinder.
9) Which Sargent F183-170 cylinder finish holds up outdoors or in a coastal building?
For exterior and high-humidity openings, 32D satin stainless steel or 32 bright stainless are the ones to specify, since stainless resists corrosion without depending on a lacquer film. Clear-coated brass and bronze finishes such as 03, 04, 09, and 10 are lacquered, and that coating is what wears first under weather and heavy hand traffic. 10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed is a living finish and will change with use, which some buildings want and some do not. BSP black and WSP white are suede powder coats.
10) Does the cam thread onto the cylinder or the core on a Sargent KESO removable core cylinder?
The cam attaches directly to the core on the F183-170, not to the housing. That matters when you pull a core to rekey: the cam comes with it, so a swapped core has to carry the correct cam for the lock function. Get the cam right at order time, standard offset (13-2563), the shorter 105 (13-2522) for 16, 92, 78 and 8216 function inside cylinders, or the Adams Rite 101 (13-2521).
11) Is the Sargent F183-170 mortise cylinder rated for commercial use or is it residential hardware?
Commercial. The F183-170 removable core mortise cylinder is built for commercial mortise lock applications in offices, schools, hospitals, government buildings, multi-tenant residential, industrial and warehouse space, and retail. That is also why the ordering is spec-driven, cam, length, finish, and keying are all called out separately rather than bundled into one part number.
