What is the name or classification of schlage cylinders used in non-mortise thumb latch setups?

Its for an Emtek Tubular Entry that was switched to medco cylinders.
New house owners want schlage so they can match other locks to same key.

Cylinder uses rotating tailpiece.
All google searches for rim cylinders keep showing fixed tailpiece cylinders.
Ordered it before but cant seem to find it this time.

As far as I know, Schlage rim cylinders have a screwed on cap with the fixed tailpiece. You could simply order a standard rim cylinder and then replace the tailpiece with a lazy motion one (from a KIK cylinder, for instance).

yea, but ive bought them with the lazy motion.. just cant remember where.

When buying something like this..https://www.clksupplies.com/products/ri ... mQQAvD_BwE

The screw holes are not spaced correct.
The actual lazy tail piece cylinder has correct screw holes

If the screw holes are different, I think you are looking at a deadbolt cylinder instead of a rim cylinder. Even Schlage deadbolt cylinders vary that spacing a bit between models. I believe all their rim cylinders are a standard spacing.
