How to distinguish VAG HU162T 8-Cut, 9-Cut and 10-Cut key blades? So we can properly decode cut keys using key cutting machines (Xhorse Dolphin/Condor, 2M2 Tank etc).
HU162T (8) vs HU162T (9) vs HU162T (10)
The picture shows the side of the 3 keys.
From top to bottom, they are 8-cut, 9-cut and 10-cut.
The 8-cut (HU162T (8)) key is the easiest to be distinguished.
It has only one fixed cut on the side and is straight.
The effective surface is on the top.
The 9-cut and 10-cut key can be quickly distinguished by the position of the effective surface.
The effective surface of 9-cut key is on the top, while the effective surface of 10-cut key is on the bottom.
It is also possible to distinguish them by the number of cuts.
9-cut key has 3-side cuts
10-cut key has 4-side cuts.
