American Lock A5260KA-34868 Padlock 2 in Keyed Different

Product Description

The AMERICAN LOCK A5260KA-34868 is a heavy-duty padlock built with a brass and steel body and a boron alloy shackle, designed for industrial and commercial security applications. The body measures 2 inches wide and 0.75 inches thick in a rectangular profile with a chrome-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The padlock features a 5-pin tumbler cylinder and operates on a keyed different configuration, meaning each unit ships with its own unique key. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and facility maintenance professionals use this type of padlock for lockout/tagout procedures, gate latches, tool storage, and equipment enclosures.

This padlock is suited for both light commercial and industrial environments where a compact, tamper-resistant lock is needed. The 0.375-inch shackle diameter and 1.125-inch shackle height allow it to fit standard hasps, chains, and lockout stations. The chrome finish performs well in moderately harsh environments. It is commonly installed by electricians and safety personnel in lockout/tagout programs as well as by contractors securing job-site storage boxes, HVAC equipment access panels, and utility enclosures.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — the padlock engages any compatible hasp or chain by hand. Before servicing any electrical panel, equipment, or utility enclosure secured by this lock, follow OSHA lockout/tagout procedures and verify the controlled energy source is fully de-energized. Inspect the shackle and body for damage before each use. This padlock is intended to be installed and managed by a qualified tradesperson or authorized safety officer.
