Per the SecurityParts.com product page, the 03-235-8RO is "supplied less core, allowing installation with a compatible Corbin Russwin J-CO7 7-pin FSIC." Non-handed. Tactile Rhodes lever profile. Available (3-4 weeks).

What the 03-235 Corbin Russwin FSIC J-CO7 Format Means

The 03-235 prefix identifies levers with factory preparation for the Corbin Russwin Full-Size Interchangeable Core (FSIC) in the J-CO7 (7-pin) format. The J-CO7 designation identifies both the core style (J format) and the pin count (7-pin) for this specific Corbin Russwin FSIC configuration. Per the SecurityParts.com product page FAQ: "It is designed for a Corbin Russwin Full-Size Interchangeable Core (FSIC) J-CO7 7-pin cylinder."

This format is distinct from three other lever formats in the Schlage ND and ALX Series catalog. The 03-232 FSIC lever accepts a Schlage Full-Size Interchangeable Core. The 03-200 SFIC lever accepts a Schlage Small Format Interchangeable Core. The 03-234 lever is prepared for a Corbin Russwin conventional Key-in-Lever (KIL) cylinder, not an interchangeable core. The 03-235 format accommodates the Corbin Russwin FSIC specifically, which uses a different physical housing and pin count from the Schlage FSIC used in 03-232 levers. Ordering the wrong FSIC format results in a core that does not fit the lever housing correctly.

Three Legacy Part Numbers Replaced by the 03-235-8RO

The 03-235-8RO replaces three legacy part numbers, as confirmed on the SecurityParts.com product page under "Original Part#."

• 23854532: Original part number for cylindrical lock outside trim positions. This legacy number uses a numeric format rather than the alphanumeric format of the other two.
• 09-366-8RO: Original part number for mortise lock trim applications. The 09 prefix in the legacy Schlage system identified mortise trim levers.
• 03-366-8RO: Original part number for exit device outside trim applications.

All three installation types are served by the 03-235-8RO as the current OEM part number. When sourcing a replacement from a maintenance record referencing any of these three legacy numbers, the 03-235-8RO is the correct current part.

Tactile Rhodes Profile and Ordering

The 03-235-8RO uses the Rhodes lever profile with a tactile surface. The tactile surface provides hazardous area door identification by touch for outside trim positions where the tactile designation is specified alongside the Corbin Russwin FSIC J-CO7 core requirement. The lever is compatible with Schlage AD Series, CO Series, ALX Series, and ND Series locks configured for the Corbin Russwin FSIC J-CO7 core. Ten finishes are listed: 605, 606, 612, 613, 619, 622, 625, 626, 626AM (Satin Chrome Antimicrobial), and 643E. Finish must be specified at time of order. Contact SecurityParts.com for current finish availability. The Corbin Russwin FSIC J-CO7 core is not included and must be ordered separately.
