Master 1525 keyway ID

Postby Peter Martin » 19 May 2020 19:58

I have a Master 1525 lock, a combination lock without a control key.
I examined the keyway and the ILCO keyblank catalog.
There are two possible profiles based on my photo analysis: M17 (1092C) and/or M18 (1092-40).
My best estimate is the 1092C.
Anyone else with sharp eyes wish to weigh in?

No on the M18. Look at the shape of the ward on the bottom right side of the keyway - flat on the bottom end.

1092C

Its one of the more common keys used lately... Also the one that breaks most often waaaaaaaaaay back in the padlock keyway. Its one of the reasons we use factory only keys. The blanks are stronger.

Should be some numbers on the back of the padlock. The "V" number can be run thru code source and will give you the info.
