ABUS Padlock brass 70

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

  • Solid brass lock body
  • Suitable for outdoor use
  • Shock-absorbing plastic casing protects sensitive surfaces

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 70IB/45HB63 KA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 padlock fit through my hasp? What are the shackle clearances?
The shackle on the 70IB/45HB63 is 5/16 inch in diameter, with 25/32 inch of horizontal clearance and 2-31/64 inch of vertical clearance under the shackle. The lock body itself is 1-59/64 inch wide. Measure the staple on your hasp and the thickness of the material you are locking through: anything that fits inside a 25/32 inch gap and stacks under 2-31/64 inches will close.
2) Is the ABUS 70 brass padlock OK to leave outdoors year round, on a dock or a marina gate?
That is what the 70 series brass body is built for. The body is solid brass with a protective cap and drainage channels that keep water and dirt out of the mechanism, and the internal components are made from rust-free materials. ABUS markets it as a marine lock for extreme weather. The hardened steel shackle is fully sleeved in impact-resistant plastic so a lock swinging on a gate or boat fitting does not chew up the surface next to it.
3) Can I get ABUS 70IB/45HB63 padlocks all keyed the same for a property?
Yes. Keying is the choice you make when ordering: keyed alike so one key opens every lock in the group, keyed different so each lock has its own key, or master keyed so individual keys open their own lock while a master opens all of them. For a property manager standardizing gates, meters, and storage across a site, keyed alike or master keyed is the usual call. Decide before you order, since the keying is built into the cylinder.
4) Our facility keys everything on removable cores. Does the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 fit that, or do I need a different padlock?
The ABUS 70IB/45HB63 uses a precision pin cylinder with a paracentric key profile and is ordered keyed alike, keyed different, or master keyed. It is not a removable core lock. For a small format interchangeable core program, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, which lets your locksmith pin the core to the same system as the building doors. Choose the ABUS where the marine exposure matters and the Sargent 60-858-2 where core interchange matters.
5) What is the closest brass-body padlock to the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 with the same shackle diameter?
The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is the nearest match: a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, the same shackle diameter the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 carries. The ABUS adds a plastic sleeve over the hardened steel shackle and a shock-absorbing plastic casing on the body, so it will not mark an aluminum gate or a painted locker face the way a bare brass-and-steel lock can. The Schlage is a plain brass body in the 20 Series. If the surface protection is not a requirement, the KS23D/KS23F covers the same shackle opening.
6) I need a heavier shackle than the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 for a higher-risk gate. What should I look at?
Step up to the Medeco 5260, a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter and M3 key technology. The ABUS 70IB/45HB63 uses a 5/16 inch shackle and is described as security for items of medium value or an average risk of theft, so on an opening you have flagged as higher risk the thicker 7/16 inch shackle is the direct move. Check your hasp: a 7/16 inch shackle needs a larger shackle eye than the 5/16 inch ABUS clears.
7) Can I get an electronic audit trail on a padlock in place of the ABUS 70IB/45HB63?
Not from the 70IB/45HB63, which is a mechanical pin cylinder lock ordered keyed alike, keyed different, or master keyed. For electronic credential control the Medeco 54515G is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder included, in the System Series. It carries the same 5/16 inch shackle diameter as the ABUS, so it drops into the same hasp eye, while moving key management from a mechanical keyway to the XT system.
8) Does this ABUS padlock lock without the key, or do I have to turn the key every time?
It is self-locking. Push the shackle down and it latches, no key needed to secure it. The key is only for opening. That matters on a route where a tech is closing dozens of gates or switch boxes and does not want to fumble a key at each one. The shackle is double bolted, meaning it is held at both the heel and the toe.
9) How much security does the ABUS 70 brass padlock actually give me? Is it enough for a job site gate?
ABUS positions the 70 for items of medium value or an average risk of theft, not for high-value or high-risk applications. The cylinder is a precision pin cylinder with a paracentric key profile, which resists picking and manipulation, and the shackle is hardened steel. For a tool shed, locker, cellar window, switch box, or a chained gate it is a sound choice. For a high-theft site or high-value stock, step up to a heavier body such as the Medeco 521 G8R, which uses a solid stainless steel body.
10) What is the difference between the ABUS 70 brass padlock and a Schlage or Medeco brass padlock?
The Schlage KS23D/KS23F from the 20 Series is the closest match on size, with the same 5/16 inch shackle diameter and a brass body, and it puts you on a Schlage keyway if your building is already keyed that way. The Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body lock with a heavier 7/16 inch shackle and M3 key technology. What sets the ABUS 70IB apart is the weather package: sealed body, drainage channels, and the plastic-encased shackle for outdoor and marine use.
11) What is the difference between the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 and the Medeco 521 G8R for a dockside application?
Both target weather exposure but get there differently. The ABUS 70IB/45HB63 uses a solid brass body with a protective cap and drainage channels plus rust-free internal components, and the shackle is hardened steel inside a plastic sleeve. The Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less pop-out cylinder, meaning you furnish and install the cylinder to your own keyway. Pick the ABUS if you want a complete keyed lock out of the box; pick the G8R if your program requires your own cylinder in a stainless body.
12) Is the Sargent 758 a substitute for the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 on an exposed exterior gate?
They are not the same tool. The Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, meaning the key cannot be removed while the shackle is open, which suits key control on interior and equipment applications. The ABUS 70IB/45HB63 is self-locking, so it closes by pushing the shackle down without the key, and it is built around a sealed body with drainage channels for extreme weather. If the gate is outdoors and crews lock up without carrying the key, the self-locking ABUS is the better behavior. If you specifically want the key captured while the lock is open, the 758 is the one that does that.
13) We want a non-key-retaining brass padlock like the ABUS 70IB/45HB63 but in a larger case. What else is there?
The Sargent 82-856 is a non-key retaining padlock with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and a stainless steel shackle in the KESO Series. The ABUS 70IB/45HB63 body measures 1-59/64 inches wide, so the Sargent case is slightly larger in footprint. Confirm hasp staple spacing before you swap, since the wider case can foul a tight hasp. The ABUS keeps the plastic-sleeved shackle and drainage-channel body that the bare brass-and-stainless Sargent does not carry.
14) Will the plastic sleeve on the shackle scratch a painted gate or boat hardware?
That is the point of it. The hardened steel shackle is fully encased in tough impact-resistant plastic so the lock can swing against a painted gate, a hull fitting, or a finished cabinet without marking it. The body also carries a shock-absorbing plastic casing for the same reason. Bear in mind the sleeve is part of the 5/16 inch shackle assembly measurement you check against your hasp opening.
15) Is the ABUS 70IB padlock a commercial grade lock or a consumer one?
It is catalogued for commercial use. In practice that means facilities and MRO work: chains, gates, cabinets, lockers, tool boxes, cellar windows, and switch boxes, indoors or out. The brass body and sealed mechanism are aimed at service environments rather than a homeowner's garden shed, though it handles that too.
