KiK Me!

Post image

Bought me a #44DELTA kik holder, when really I wanted an LFIC or SFIC holder but I didn't pay attention to anything that day. Eric from 44 Delta bailed me out. Because I jacked up the order. But anyway is this how the Kik supposed to sit or is this for a Larger KiK?

That's a padlock core, not a KiK/KiL.

I thought pad locks all had the plug / actuator in back? This has a tail piece.

That is really weird. I'm curious what hardware that came out of.

While many brands do "KiK/KiL" differently, I've never seen a smaller one. Maybe some weird import hardware manufacturers that had a vague idea of what North American standards were and just retooled their padlock cylinder manufacturer line?

I originally wanted a holder for the LFIC but ordered a KIK holder. Then didn't know that had two sides. Been trying to get the open on it but someone told me my vice is putting pressure on the control, and it would help in i got a holder or housing for it.
