MARINE LOCK

Padlock 70 made from brass is particularly suitable for use in extreme weather and environmental conditions.

With our robust brass lock 70 you can secure your valuables with chains, on doors, gates, on cabinets, lockers, in tool boxes, sheds, and more, even under extreme weather conditions. We recommend using it to secure objects of medium value or items at a moderate risk of theft. The 70 padlock consists of a solid brass body, which, thanks to a special protective cap and drainage channels, protects the lock from being penetrated by dirt and splashing water. The interior is made of corrosion-resistant materials. The steel shackle is fully encased in a tough, impact-resistant plastic, which protects adjacent surfaces. Because especially at sea, depending on the weather conditions, a padlock may swing to and fro.

Technology:

  • Solid lock body made from brass
  • Shackle made from hardened steel with plastic sleeve
  • Sealed lock body with special protective cap and drainage channels to protect the locking mechanism from water and dirt
  • Shock-absorbing plastic casing protects sensitive surfaces
  • Double bolted
  • Precision pin cylinder
  • Paracentric key profile for increased protection against manipulation
  • Inner components made from rust-free materials
  • Self-locking: lock without the key by pushing down the shackle

Operation and use:

  • Security for items/goods of medium value or where there is an average risk of theft
  • For securing chains, doors, gates, cupboards, lockers, tool boxes, cellar windows, sheds, switch boxes, etc.
  • Also suitable for outdoor use

ABUS 70/35-KD-BLK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an ABUS 70/35 padlock fit through a 1/4 inch hasp or a chain link?
The 70/35 uses a 1/4 inch diameter shackle, so it needs a hasp slot or chain link that passes a 1/4 inch bar. Working space inside the shackle is 37/64 inch horizontal clearance and 31/32 inch vertical, which is what limits how thick a hasp staple or how large a chain link you can capture. Body width is 1-27/64 inches, so it sits close on a narrow hasp plate.
2) Is the ABUS 70 brass padlock any good outdoors, on a gate or at a marina?
Outdoor and marine use is what the 70 series brass body is built around. The body is solid brass with a sealed protective cap and drainage channels that keep water and dirt out of the mechanism, and the internal components are made from rust-free materials. The steel shackle is hardened and fully sleeved in impact-resistant plastic, which also stops the lock marking a boat rail, painted gate, or cabinet face when it swings.
3) Should I order keyed alike or keyed different ABUS 70/35 padlocks for my property?
Both keying setups are offered on the 70/35. Keyed alike means one key opens every lock in the group, which is how most property managers and MRO crews run gates, meters, and storage across a site so a tech carries one key. Keyed different gives each padlock its own key, which is what you want for tenant lockers, individual tool boxes, or anywhere one lost key should not open the rest. Pick the keying at the same time as the color.
4) How much security does the ABUS 70/35 brass padlock actually give me?
ABUS positions the 70 for goods of medium value or where the theft risk is average, on chains, doors, gates, cupboards, lockers, tool boxes, cellar windows, sheds, and switch boxes. With a 1/4 inch shackle it is a deterrent and weather lock, not a high attack resistance lock. For a high value opening or a job that calls for a heavier shackle, step up to something like the Sargent 858 with a stainless steel shackle or the Medeco 5260 52 Series brass body padlock, which uses a 7/16 inch shackle.
5) I need padlocks on my facility's existing key system, will the ABUS 70/35 work?
No. The 70/35 comes with its own ABUS pin cylinder and is ordered keyed alike or keyed different within ABUS keying, so it will not join a Schlage, Sargent, or Medeco master key system. If your facility is keyed on a small format interchangeable core, look at the Sargent 60-858-2 removable core padlock, which takes your core. For a Schlage brass body padlock, the KS23D/KS23F is the 20 Series option.
6) What is a stainless steel alternative to the ABUS 70/35 brass padlock for marine and coastal use?
The ABUS 70/35 uses a solid brass body with a sealed cap and drainage channels, and its steel shackle is sleeved in impact-resistant plastic so it will not mar adjacent surfaces when it swings. If you want the body itself in stainless rather than brass, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less the pop-out cylinder so you key it to your own system. The tradeoff is straightforward: the 70/35 arrives keyed and ready to hang with a shackle sleeve that protects painted gates and boat fittings, while the G8R-521 gives you a stainless body but needs a cylinder added before it locks anything.
7) I need a brass padlock with a thicker shackle than 1/4 inch - what are the options?
The ABUS 70/35 carries a 1/4 inch shackle diameter in a body 1-27/64 inch wide, which suits chains, lockers, tool boxes and cabinet hasps. Where the hasp takes a heavier shackle, the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter, and the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle in a satin chrome finish. All three keep the brass body; what changes is the shackle stock and, with it, the minimum hasp opening the lock will pass through, so measure the hasp eye before you standardize on any of them.
8) Can the ABUS 70/35 be keyed into our building master key system, or do we need a different padlock?
The ABUS 70/35 is a self-contained padlock with its own precision pin cylinder and paracentric key profile, sold keyed alike or keyed different. It is not built to accept a facility core, so it runs as its own key group rather than folding into a building master system. If the padlocks must key into the same system as the doors, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, which takes the same interchangeable core your cylinders use. The Medeco 521 G8R ships less pop-out cylinder for the same reason. Use the 70/35 where a standalone key group is acceptable, and a core-accepting padlock where key control has to be centralized.
9) What colors does the ABUS 70/35 padlock come in, and can I use color to sort crews or zones?
Three colors: black, red, and yellow. The color is in the shackle's plastic sleeve, so it stays legible in the field. Crews commonly assign a color per trade, per building, or per lockout zone, and each color can be had keyed alike or keyed different, so you can run yellow keyed alike for the whole maintenance crew and red keyed different for individual tenant use.
10) Can I lock an ABUS 70/35 without using the key?
Yes, it is self locking. Push the shackle down and it latches, no key needed to secure it. The key is only used to open. That matters on a route where someone is closing twenty cabinets or meter boxes in a shift. The mechanism is double bolted and uses a precision pin cylinder with a paracentric key profile for added resistance to manipulation.
11) What is the difference between the ABUS 70/35 brass padlock and a stainless steel body padlock?
Brass, as on the 70/35, resists corrosion and is the traditional choice for wet and coastal exposure, with a plastic sleeved shackle so the lock does not scar what it swings against. A solid stainless steel body, like the Medeco 521 G8R weather-tight padlock, is the alternative where you want a harder body against physical attack in the same wet conditions. The Sargent 82-856 uses a brass case with a stainless shackle, splitting the difference.
12) Does the key come out of the ABUS 70/35 when the lock is open?
The 70/35 is not a key retaining lock, so the key can be withdrawn whether the padlock is locked or unlocked. If your site requires the key to stay captive in the open lock, which is a common rule on utility and lockout applications so keys are not walked off, use a key retaining model instead, such as the Sargent 758 standard padlock.
13) Will an electronic or access-controlled padlock do this job better than a keyed brass ABUS 70/35?
A mechanical lock like the 70/35 needs no power, no programming, and no audit setup, which is why it is the default on gates and equipment cabinets. If you need to grant and revoke access remotely or pull an audit trail on who opened a remote site, that is a different product: the Medeco 54515G XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock covers that ground with a 5/16 inch shackle. For a straight keyed opening the brass 70 is the simpler buy.
14) What is the difference between a key retaining and non-key retaining padlock, and which one is the ABUS 70/35?
The ABUS 70/35 is self-locking - push the shackle down and it locks without the key - so the key comes out with the lock open or closed. Among brass-body padlocks, the Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in US4 satin brass, meaning the key cannot be withdrawn while the lock is open, which forces the user to relock before walking away with the key. The Sargent 858 is the non-key retaining version of the same style, also US4 satin brass with a stainless steel shackle, and the Sargent 82-856 is likewise non-key retaining with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case. Key retaining matters on gates and equipment where a padlock left hanging open is a real risk; where crews routinely carry the lock off, non-key retaining is the practical choice.
15) We want to track who opened a padlock - is there an electronic version of the ABUS 70/35?
The ABUS 70/35 is a mechanical padlock: a brass body with a precision pin cylinder, opened by a cut key, with no audit capability. For openings where you need an electronic credential rather than a mechanical key, the Medeco 54515G is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder included. The two solve different problems. The 70/35 is the right lock when the requirement is weather resistance and a simple key group across colored, keyed alike sets; the 54515G is the right lock when the requirement is controlling and recording which credential opened which padlock.
16) Which padlock should I use to color code departments across a facility?
The ABUS 70/35 is the one to reach for when the padlocks themselves need to be told apart at a glance. It comes in black, red and yellow, in both keyed alike and keyed different, so a maintenance group can run one color keyed alike per department while a second color stays keyed different for individual assignments. The comparable brass padlocks are specified by metal finish rather than color - the Sargent 758 and Sargent 858 are both US4 satin brass, and the Medeco 5260 is satin chrome - so they identify by keyway and stamping rather than by sight. If the crew has to sort locks visually on a rack or across a yard, the colored 70/35 is doing work the satin finishes cannot.
17) Will the ABUS 70/35 fit a hasp that currently takes a Sargent 858 or a Schlage KS23?
Check the clearance, not the body size. The ABUS 70/35 gives 37/64 inch of horizontal shackle clearance and 31/32 inch of vertical clearance on a 1/4 inch shackle, with a body 1-27/64 inch wide. The Sargent 60-858-2 carries a 2 inch stainless steel shackle and the Sargent 82-856 has a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case, so both are physically larger through the hasp eye, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F runs a 5/16 inch shackle. A hasp drilled for a 5/16 inch shackle will accept the 70/35's 1/4 inch shackle, but the reverse is not true - a hasp sized to the 70/35 will not pass the thicker stock. Vertical clearance of 31/32 inch is the number to compare against the stack of hasp plus staple on the opening.
18) Is the ABUS 70/35 a high security padlock, or do I need a Medeco for that?
The ABUS 70/35 is built for items of medium value or an average risk of theft: brass body, double bolted, hardened steel shackle, precision pin cylinder with a paracentric key profile for added resistance to manipulation. That is the right specification for lockers, cabinets, tool boxes, switch boxes and gates. Where the opening calls for a patented, controlled key system, the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock using M3 key technology, and the Sargent 82-856 belongs to the KESO Series. Those are restricted-key platforms, which changes how you order duplicates as much as it changes the lock. Match the lock to the exposure - the 70/35 for volume openings at moderate risk, a controlled-key padlock where unauthorized key duplication is the threat you are actually defending against.
19) Is the ABUS 70/35 padlock rated for commercial use or is it a residential lock?
It is a commercial grade item in the ABUS 70 brass line, model 70/35, sold for facility and jobsite use on gates, lockers, switch boxes, and tool boxes rather than as a consumer luggage or locker lock. Body width is 1-27/64 inches with a 1/4 inch shackle, which is the compact end of the commercial padlock range and suits meter boxes and cabinet hasps where a full size 2 inch body will not sit flat.
