American Lock A5560KA-54736 Brass Padlock 1-3/4 in

Product Description

The AMERICAN LOCK A5560KA-54736 is a keyed-alike padlock built for industrial and commercial security applications. The rectangular body is constructed from brass and steel, measuring 1-3/4 inches wide and 3/4 inches thick. The shackle is boron alloy, offering high resistance to cutting and sawing attacks. With a 5-pin cylinder, the lock delivers reliable pick resistance for controlled-access environments. At 0.75 pounds, it is a solid, compact unit suited to gate hasps, equipment lockout points, storage units, and job-site cabinets. Licensed tradespeople and facility maintenance professionals are the typical installers.

This padlock is designed for keyed-alike applications where multiple locks must operate on the same key. That makes it practical for contractor lockout/tagout programs, HVAC and electrical equipment lockout stations, and multi-point access control on job sites or industrial facilities. The boron alloy shackle provides an elevated level of cut resistance compared to standard steel shackles, making it appropriate for outdoor or unsupervised installations where physical attack is a concern.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no specialized tools beyond the hasp or lockout device being secured. Always confirm the shackle clearance of 1-1/16 inches and shackle height of 1-1/8 inches are sufficient for the intended hasp or locking point before installation. For lockout/tagout applications, follow OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 procedures and ensure the lock is assigned to a single authorized employee per program requirements. Do not force the shackle into an undersized hasp opening, as this can damage the locking mechanism.
