Michael Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 I've always used DB B605/1 and B605/2....never had a problem as these are thinner. Had problems with the thicker ERA genuine blanks (608/1 and 608/2) and so went over to these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobblers Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 I had one of the Era ones returned to me this week saying it wouldn't go in the lock, i checked the gauge and it was a gauge 5 but the original (Era too) was 5.5 so i checked all the keys on my hook and some where gauge 5, some gauge 5.5 How the hell are we supposed to get it right if the manufacturers bugger up?
