Everything You Need In One Package.....
At Framon, we don't believe in a lot of extras. Here's everything you get when you buy a #2J Code Machine
FC8445 Standard Cutter F2MS451 6" Dial Caliper F2MS350 Depth & Space Manual F2MSSB1 #1 Spacing Block F2MS552 Spacing Clip F2MSSB2 #2 Spacing Block F2MS402 1/8" Allen Wrench F2MSSB3 #3 Spacing Block F2SH11/12J Jail Vise F2MSSB4 #4 Spacing Block F2SH13/14J Large & Small Stops F2MSSB5 #5 Spacing Block DBC1103 .103" Carbide Slotter F2MSSBJ Jail Spacing Block F2MS899 Demonstration Video LKMS410 Brass ShimIn addition to cutting all of the detention keys, the #2J can still be used to cut almost any cylinder key you'll come across. If detention key cutting is your line of work, the #2J is your machine!
All of the extras included with the Framon #2J make it a great package. Here are a few of the features that make it a perfect code machine:
Accuracy: All Framon key machines are hand assembled and hand fit. This ensures that before your machine reaches you, it has originated keys accurate to one-half thousandth of an inch (.0005", about the thickness of a hair). This tolerance assures a perfect key every time!
Straight-In Feed: The #2J utilizes a
straight-in feed approach. The straight-in feed of the #2J provides a perpendicular
cut at the root of the key. The flat of the cut will always be the same depth from the left side of the cut to the right. Machines that use a pivot approach can produce keys that turn one way but not the other. The drawing at the right shows the profile of a key cut by a machine that pivots. The different shear lines from the left to the right side of the key lead to the turning problem.
Rugged & Durable: The #2J is made from heat treated aluminum and steel. The carriage moves forward on a pair of steel slides. Spacing and depth movements take place on pairs of steel pins and screws. There are no small gears to strip out and no plastic parts to wear out. We've heard plenty of stories from code machine owners who have dropped the machine off of their workbench and cut a key with no adjustments needed!
The #2J utilizes actual space & depth information to cut keys. Here's how it's done.....
| Mfgr: Schlage | Depths |
| Series: Pin Tumbler | 0-.335 |
| Blanks: 1045C, etc. | 1-.320 |
| Cuts Start At: .231 | 2-.305 |
| Spacing: .156 | 3-.290 |
| Block #: 1 | 4-.275 |
| Incr.: .015 | 5-.260 |
| No. Of Spaces: 5 or 6 | 6-.245 |
| Spaces: .231, .387, .543, .699, .855, 1.011 | 7-.230 |
| 8-.215 | |
| 9-.200 |
DEPTH: Depth settings are made in .001" increments by means of a micrometer. Reading a micrometer is quite simple. The depth micrometer on the #2J is shown to the left. The micrometer depth reading is what gives the #2 its' extreme accuracy. Once familiar with the machine, you'll be code cutting keys in 30-45 seconds.![]()
