Why Choose GreatLight CNC Machined NA14 Key Blanks?
These key blanks are ideal for locksmiths, security professionals, and businesses requiring consistently high-quality keys. We go beyond simply replicating the NA14 profile; we enhance it through precise CNC machining, delivering advantages you won’t find in traditional stamped blanks:
- Superior Accuracy: CNC machining guarantees consistent dimensions and tight tolerances, resulting in keys that fit perfectly and operate smoothly.
- Enhanced Durability: We use premium grade brass and optimized machining parameters to create keys with increased tensile strength and resistance to wear and tear. This reduces key breakage and extends the lifespan of the key.
- Exceptional Finish: Our CNC process creates a consistently smooth, burr-free surface finish, improving aesthetics and user experience.
- Customization Potential: Beyond standard cutting, we offer full CNC machining capabilities for adding logos, serial numbers, unique cuts, or specialized features to your key blanks. (See ‘Custom Guide’ below).
- Reliable Supply: GreatLight provides consistent, scalable production to meet your needs, from small batches to large volume orders.
Suitable Applications:

CNC Machining Instructions (for understanding our process):
- Material Selection: We start with high-quality C36000 brass, ensuring optimal machinability and durability. Alternative brass alloys can be used upon request.
- Programming: Your design (typically a CAD file) is translated into G-code, the language our CNC machines understand.
- Setup & Clamping: The brass stock is securely clamped onto the CNC machine’s worktable. Precision clamping is crucial for maintaining accuracy.
- Roughing Cut: The machine removes the bulk of the material, shaping the key blank to near its final dimensions.
- Finishing Cut: A final, precise cut is performed to achieve the desired dimensions, tolerances, and surface finish.
- Deburring & Inspection: Each key blank undergoes a thorough deburring process to remove any sharp edges. A final inspection using calibrated instruments ensures all specifications are met.
Custom Guide: Tailoring Your Key Blanks with GreatLight
We don’t just manufacture key blanks; we offer a complete customization service. Here’s how you can personalize your order:
