American Lock A7202 Steel Padlock 1-3/4 in Tubular 7-pin

Product Description

The AMERICAN LOCK A7202 is a steel-bodied padlock designed for industrial and commercial security applications where reliable, keyed-different locking is required. Built around a 7-pin tubular cylinder, the A7202 resists picking and unauthorized access more effectively than standard pin-tumbler designs. The body measures 1-3/4 inches wide and 7/8 inches thick, and the shackle is 5/16 inches in diameter with a 3-inch height and 3/4-inch clearance. This padlock is installed by facilities maintenance technicians, security professionals, and tradespeople securing equipment, cabinets, gates, and lockout/tagout points.

The A7202 is suited for light industrial, commercial, and institutional settings where multiple locks must be keyed differently for individual user accountability. Common applications include equipment lockout/tagout programs, storage lockers, utility panels, and access gates. Its compact steel body fits standard hasp hardware and padlock-ready fixtures. The tubular keyway is a common choice in environments that require a higher level of pick resistance than standard pin-tumbler padlocks.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — insert the shackle through the hasp or fixture and engage the locking mechanism. Always verify the shackle clearance and diameter are compatible with the hasp or anchor point before installation. For lockout/tagout applications, follow OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 control of hazardous energy procedures. Keep the keyway clear of debris and lubricate the cylinder periodically with a dry lubricant to maintain smooth operation.
