mrkeys Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hi all Sks number 615/01 and 615/02 era keys They are a 5 gauge but I need this exact key in a 5.5 gauge can't find em anywhere even rang up for them and ordered genuine blanks on the advice that there is some variance in them, but the thicker 5 gauge come back every time .........any ideas?

grahamparker Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 My answer to your question is that it is possibly not an era key if it's a 5 1/2 gauge. There are copies of this key (zoo hardware do one but it is a 4 1/2 gauge) and it is probably not available yet. We suggest a new lock to our customer at this point (union essential 3 lever should fit straight in and it is based on the mm series). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Iv'e got the 615/01 and 02 from SKS and the ERA genuine ones ABR L and R The ERA ones are thicker.........As Graham says its probably not an ERA key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjm Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Sorry, but our copy blank also measures 4.5 gauge, with the genuine being 5 gauge. I do not know of a 5.5 gauge version of this blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cjm Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I believe the issue may arise from the fact Era now make locks at different factories, so in fact it's not really the keys which are variants in this case, it's more to do with the locks.

grahamparker Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 ERA Locks went down the tubes years ago when they started competing with the chinese market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 That's what I mean all era keys are not the same gauge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
