Sargent 13-0090 Cylinder Barrel US15 - 34 Series Rim Cylinder Rekeying
The Sargent 13-0090 Cylinder Barrel (also known as a cylinder plug) is a precision-engineered internal component designed specifically for the Sargent 34 Series Rim Cylinder. As the central rotating core of the lock, this barrel facilitates the mechanical link between the user’s key and the tailpiece that retracts the exit device or auxiliary lock latch. Finished in a professional US15 (Satin Nickel Plated), this component is an essential maintenance solution for facilities looking to restore factory-smooth operation to their existing Sargent rim hardware without the high cost of a complete cylinder replacement.
As a high-performance security restoration solution, the 13-0401 acts as a foundational security maintenance solution. Over years of high-frequency use in commercial and institutional settings, the internal pin chambers of a cylinder can become worn, leading to "key-turn" resistance or mechanical binding. By choosing a genuine Sargent OEM barrel, you ensure that the shear line remains precise, which significantly reduces the risk of lock manipulation or picking. This is the primary hardware fix for maintaining the operational life of perimeter exit devices in schools, hospitals, and government facilities.
Mechanical Utility & ANSI Security Summary
The cylinder barrel is the mechanical engine of the rim system, providing the necessary rotational force to engage the latching mechanism of a panic bar or deadbolt.
- Rotational Precision: The 13-0090 barrel is designed to rotate with minimal friction, providing the smooth-operation solution required for ADA compliance and user ease-of-access.
- ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 Standards: When integrated into a Sargent 34 Series cylinder, this component supports ANSI/BHMA A156.5 standards. This ensures the lock can withstand extreme physical force and over a million opening cycles while maintaining building security.
- Shear Line Integrity: Precision-drilled chambers ensure that the pins meet exactly at the shear line, providing a reliability solution that prevents "jiggling" or key-sticking issues common in aged hardware.
- Master Key Integration: Supports standard Sargent keyways (such as LA, LB, LC, etc.), allowing for a seamless integration solution into complex, multi-level master key systems without compromising the security hierarchy of the facility.

Engineered Solutions for Facility Access Control
The Sargent 13-0090 addresses the specific mechanical and logistical challenges of maintaining high-security commercial openings:
- Cost-Efficient Rekeying: When a key is lost or a security breach occurs, replacing only the barrel is a budget-friendly rekeying solution compared to purchasing a completely new rim cylinder assembly.
- Hardware Lifecycle Extension: Instead of replacing an entire exit device trim when the core becomes "sticky," replacing the internal barrel provides a sustainability solution that returns the hardware to "like-new" performance.
- Aesthetic Restoration: A worn or scratched cylinder face can diminish the professional appearance of a facility. The US15 finish provides a high-durability, color-matched facade that blends seamlessly with modern architectural hardware, providing a professional design solution.
- Operational Reliability: By replacing a notched or grooved barrel, you provide a safety solution, ensuring that doors can be unlocked quickly and consistently during emergency egress or localized lockdowns.
- Simplified Compliance: Ensuring a cylinder is maintained with genuine OEM parts is a code-compliance solution, guaranteeing the lock continues to meet the fire and safety ratings assigned to the original opening.
