Plastic-Covered Aluminum Core Padlock 74

Strong mixture: Secure your valuables in especially hot environments as well as near electrical equipment with this aluminum lock with synthetic coating.

SAFETY LOCK

The Safety Lock 74 supplements communication between your employees before and during maintenance work and ensures a high level of transparency in the workflow.

The 74 Safety lock helps to protect your employees in several ways - for one, because it follows the golden rule of "one lock - one key - one operator" and thus provides a high level of security. It also has the key-retaining feature that means the key can only be pulled out when the padlock is fully locked. Only a fully closed lock is truly secure. The 74 also makes it easy to organize and plan locking systems. The ten colors of the Safety Lock 74 also virtually eliminates the possibility of mixing up keys or assignments in the team. In addition to the different colors, our high-quality and clearly legible laser engravings can make it clear which person or purpose is assigned to the individual padlock.

Technology:

  • Solid aluminum core with steel shackle for best physical strength
  • Body and shackle insulated against electric shock
  • NANO-PROTECT™ shackle for superior corrosion resistance
  • Intrinsically safe, key retaining
  • Automatic locking for user convenience
  • Compact and lightweight
  • High precision 6-pin cylinder for better tamper resistance

ABUS 74/40-Black-KD – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the ABUS 74/40 padlock designed for?
The ABUS 74/40 is a solid brass padlock designed for medium security applications. It features a 40mm body width and provides reliable protection for storage units, gates, lockers, and outdoor equipment.
2) What shackle diameter does the 74/40 have?
The ABUS 74/40 features a 6mm diameter hardened steel shackle. This provides good cut resistance while fitting most standard hasps and chain links.
3) Is this padlock suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the solid brass body provides excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor applications. The precision cylinder mechanism is designed to withstand weather exposure and maintain smooth operation.
4) How many keys come with the ABUS 74/40?
The ABUS 74/40 typically includes two keys. Each lock has a unique key code for security. Additional keys can be ordered from ABUS using the key code stamped on the original keys.
5) What security grade is the 74/40 rated for?
The ABUS 74/40 is classified as a medium security padlock. It provides good protection against basic attacks but is not recommended for high-value or high-risk applications requiring maximum security.
6) Can multiple 74/40 locks be keyed alike?
Yes, ABUS offers keyed alike options for the 74/40 series. Contact your supplier to arrange multiple locks with the same key. This is ideal for contractors managing multiple job sites or properties.
7) What is the shackle clearance on this model?
Check the manufacturer specifications for exact shackle clearance measurements. Verify the opening dimensions will accommodate your specific hasp, chain, or mounting hardware before installation.
8) How do I maintain the ABUS 74/40 for long service life?
Apply a small amount of graphite lubricant to the keyway periodically. Avoid oil-based lubricants that attract dirt. Clean the brass body with mild soap and water if needed. Operate the lock regularly to prevent mechanism stiffness.
9) Are there other sizes available in the ABUS 74 series?
Yes, the ABUS 74 series includes multiple body sizes and shackle lengths. Common variants include 30mm, 40mm, and 50mm body widths. Check our ABUS padlock selection for available options.
10) What applications should I avoid with the 74/40?
Avoid using the 74/40 for high-security applications, valuable equipment, or locations with frequent theft attempts. Consider higher security ABUS models for commercial or industrial applications requiring maximum protection.
11) Is the cylinder rekeyable in the field?
The ABUS 74/40 cylinder is not designed for field rekeying. If key control changes are needed, replace the entire padlock. Professional locksmiths may be able to rekey the cylinder, but this typically costs more than replacement.
12) How does this compare to similar ABUS brass padlocks?
The 74/40 offers solid medium-security performance in the ABUS brass line. For higher security, consider the ABUS 85 series with reinforced construction. For basic applications, the ABUS 65 series may provide adequate protection at lower cost.
