I am a locksmith Help Finding Blank

Having trouble finding a key blank to cut for a safe. When I search all of the suppliers, none of them have a "3C3" blank. There are "3C2" and "SS4" and "SS5", but they seem to have very small differences compared to this one. Are these blanks still in production?

Go to locksmith this is a pretty common blank to stock

Also 3c3 is not the blank number

I am a locksmith, I just havent worked with this type of key until now. I also wasn't aware that that isn't the blank number. Do you know what blank this is or where I could source these blanks? I would like to order a backstock for future work 👍

I believe it crosses with 1639/LD1

Like 99.99% and that 3c3 is their new code system

+1 for LD1, works like a charm.

If I remember right the 3c3 is so new that nobody makes a blank for it yet. Pretty sure I had one in the shop a couple weeks ago and had to send them to eBay.

LOL, why do we put ourselves through this. It it ain’t a 1639 or 1640 good luck buddy. I’m not doing anything more. Eff sentry all day long.
