Schlage K510730 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Schlage K510-730 cam used for?
The K510-730 is a standard straight cam for Schlage mortise cylinders, covering both small format interchangeable core (SFIC) and full size interchangeable core (FSIC) cylinders. The cam is the tailpiece on the back of the cylinder that turns the lock's hub when the key rotates, so it is the part that ties the cylinder to the mortise lock body. It is a commercial part, not a residential one.
2) Will a Schlage K510-730 cam work with my mortise lock?
It is made for mortise locks, and Schlage lists it against the L Series. If your opening runs a Schlage L Series mortise lock with a mortise cylinder, the straight cam is the standard configuration for it. If you are running a rim cylinder or a key-in-lever cylinder, this is not the right part, those take a different tailpiece entirely.
3) I manage a building with Schlage mortise locks. Is this the whole cylinder or just a piece?
Just a piece. The K510-730 is the cam only, the flat metal tailpiece that mounts to the rear of a mortise cylinder. It does not include the cylinder, the core, or a key. If the cylinder itself is worn or you are rekeying a suite of doors, you need the mortise cylinder or core ordered separately and this cam is the hardware that connects it to the lock case.
4) Does the straight cam matter when the cylinder is SFIC versus FSIC?
The K510-730 covers both. Small format interchangeable core and full size interchangeable core mortise cylinders each take a cam on the back, and this straight cam part is called out for both formats, so a locksmith standardizing a building on interchangeable core does not need two different cam numbers for the mortise openings.
5) Do I have to order the Schlage cam in a specific finish?
Yes, watch the finish. Schlage notes that many of these cylinder parts are finish specific, so the cam should be ordered to match the cylinder and trim you are installing rather than assumed to be universal.
6) Is the Schlage K510-730 rated for commercial traffic?
It is a commercial door hardware part, listed under Schlage's L Series mortise line rather than a residential range, and Schlage describes the material as strong. That puts it in the same service class as the mortise locks it goes into, which is where these cams get used in schools, healthcare and multi family corridors.
7) How many versions of the Schlage K510-730 cam are there?
One. It is sold as a single model, K510730, so there is no length, handing or configuration choice to make on the order. The only thing to settle before you buy is the finish match to your cylinder.
