Key Cutting & Pinning
Comparing A2 Pin Stacks
The examples on this page show pinning for key
symbol 1AA.
W
hen pinning conventional cylinders, ignore the con-
trol bitting. If a top pin of 20 or greater is needed,
use two pins of equal length to bring the pin stack to
the required height. When an odd numbered top pin
is required, such as 21, use two pins that are close
in size—11 and 10 instead of 13 and 8.
For the patent pin chamber in all conventional cylin-
ders, insert the proper bottom and top patent pins,
then insert a number 7B top pin.
Pinning for all Peaks products can now be accom-
plished with only one spring. That stainless steel
spring is number 3800-00-4010.
Note: Peaks Preferred Patent Pins for illustration
only. (See key pinning section 3 - 4 to 3 - 12)
