SFIC with a Schlage C keyway?

Nope. It uses a strip to cap all the barrels with one strip. You press down the spring, slide the strip over it, move to the next one and repeat. You push in the strip by hand. Once the strip is fully inserted and the keys are tested, you a tool in the pinning kit that looks to me like an automatic center punch on each end of the strip to keep it from backing out.

They have a video of the process on their website.

Oh, Thanks, I watched the video but it was a bit back and I forgot that part. Do you think a Falcon cap strip would work? The core looks the same.

The C123 Keyways works on This SFIC. I tried it with Schlage's key and it works seamlessly key sharing with my LFIC padlocks.

They have a small number of Schlage sections they make. Unfortunately, the last time I checked, they still did not have refills available for the pinning kit. Just pinned up one of the SC4 cores this week and put it into an American SFIC padlock to put on display at work.

Hmm, I learned something useful today. I knew you could get Everest SFICs but thought they only came in the B keyway series, which is restricted. Didn't know they had them in C keyways as well. That's good to know...

Schlage does not make these SFIC cores in this topic.
