ABUS 55/40HB63 Brass Padlock
This ABUS 55 padlock brings classic brass construction to countless daily tasks, and businesses choose it for dependable, consistent performance year after year.
The lock body is made of solid brass throughout. The shackle is made of hardened steel, and non-corrosive internal parts extend the lock's working life. Inside sits a precision pin cylinder with mushroom-head counterpins that resist picking attempts. The exterior stands up to wind and weather season after season.
Users lock it without a key simply by pressing the shackle down, a self-locking feature that speeds up daily use. Application options run wide: secure loop cables, doors, gates, cabinets, lockers, tool boxes, basement windows, sheds, switchgear, or barriers across a property. Property owners who need extra impact resistance can also compare laminated padlocks for high-security applications.
