Falcon C953626FIC Interchangeable Rim Cylinder Satin Chrome

Product Description

The FALCON C953626FIC is a small format interchangeable rim cylinder supplied without a core and finished in satin chrome. Designed for commercial door hardware applications, this rim cylinder accepts small format interchangeable cores (SFIC), allowing facilities managers and locksmiths to rekey a lock by swapping the core rather than replacing the entire cylinder. The satin chrome finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for interior and light commercial use. At 0.6 pounds, this is a lightweight but durable component built for high-cycle access control environments where rapid rekeying capability is a priority.

This rim cylinder is intended for use in commercial and institutional buildings where small format interchangeable core systems are already in place or being installed. Typical applications include office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and multi-tenant properties where keying control and fast changeover between occupants or after a security event are operational requirements. The less-core configuration means the core must be sourced separately to match the facility's existing keying system.

Key Features

• Small format interchangeable core (SFIC) design allows core removal and replacement without disassembling the cylinder
• Supplied less core — compatible with separately sourced SFIC cores to match existing master key systems
• Satin chrome (626) finish for a clean, low-glare appearance on commercial doors
• Lightweight at 0.6 pounds, reducing door hardware load
• Rim-style mounting suits surface-mounted rim exit devices and compatible locksets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation rim cylinder for commercial door hardware systems that use small format interchangeable cores. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data; verify core format and cam configuration against the target lockset before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware technician familiar with SFIC systems and applicable building codes. Before servicing any lock cylinder, ensure the door is propped open and access control credentials are available to avoid lockout. Do not force the core into the cylinder housing; proper SFIC cores seat with controlled thumb-turn pressure using the appropriate control key. Verify that the cylinder cam orientation matches the exit device or lockset before securing the mounting hardware.
