Padlock brass 83 Eighty Three

Our service lock 83/50 is a solid padlock with chrome plated lock body to secure objects of higher value at high risk of theft.

THE SERVICE PADLOCK

Our padlock 83/50 is a solid padlock with chrome plated lock body to secure objects of higher value at high risk of theft.

Do you want to reliably secure objects of high value at a high risk of theft? Our service lock 83/50 could be a good solution for you. It is suitable for securing grilles, doors, gates, cabinets, tool boxes, cellar windows, sheds, switchgears, or barriers and can be combined keyed alike with our profile cylinders C83, EC550, EC660, XP20S, for example. The chrome plated lock body is made of solid brass, and the hardened special steel shackle has Nano Protect™ coating for very high corrosion protection. Inside, a special cylinder is at work. You can decide for yourself whether the lock should close automatically or lock with a key. The variant with Closed Shackle (CS), i.e. a raised lock body, means additional protection for the steel shackle, which makes it much more difficult to break open the lock, such as with bolt cutters.

Technology:

  • Chrome plated solid brass lock body
  • Special alloy steel shackle with NANO PROTECT™ coating for extra corrosion resistance
  • High precision pin tumbler cylinder with patented pinning window
  • Patented ”Z-Bar“ for 2-in-1 function: converts key-retaining to non-key-retaining and vice versa within seconds
  • Cylinder can be taken out and can be re-keyed to match an existing key
  • RK: Can be keyed into many popular security keyways
  • Easy shackle change: shackle can be exchanged within seconds

Operation and use:

  • To secure valuables/goods of greater value or at a high risk of theft
  • To secure gratings, doors, gates, cupboards, tool boxes, cellar windows, sheds, switchboards, barriers, etc.

ABUS 83IC/45HB50 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the ABUS 83IC/45 padlock fit through a 1/2 inch hasp opening?
The shackle on the 83IC/45 is 5/16 inch diameter, so it passes anything with a clear 5/16 inch opening or larger. Working room is 15/16 inch horizontal clearance between the shackle legs and 63/64 inch vertical clearance under the crown. That sets the practical limit: a hasp staple, chain link, or gate loop has to sit inside roughly 15/16 inch across and just under an inch tall for the lock to close.
2) What is the difference between the standard cylinder and the SFIC prep version of the ABUS 83IC/45?
Two builds. The standard cylinder version arrives with an ABUS pin tumbler cylinder already in the lock and is ready to key. The SFIC prep version comes less core, so you supply and install your own small format interchangeable core to bring the padlock onto the facility's existing SFIC master key system. If your building already runs SFIC on the doors, order the less-core build; buying the standard version and trying to convert it later is the wrong path.
3) Can I key ABUS 83 series padlocks alike with the door cylinders in my building?
Yes, within the ABUS system. The 83 series cylinder pulls out and can be re-keyed to match an existing key, and it can be combined keyed alike with ABUS profile cylinders including the C83, EC550, EC660 and XP20S. The RK variant can also be keyed into many popular security keyways. For facilities standardized on small format interchangeable core, the separate SFIC prep build takes your own core instead.
4) Does this ABUS padlock hold the key when it is open, or can I pull the key out?
Either, and you choose on site. The 83 series uses a patented Z-Bar that converts the lock from key-retaining to non-key-retaining and back in seconds, so one lock covers both habits. It is also self-locking, meaning it snaps shut when you press the shackle home without turning the key. Key-retaining is what most property managers want on shared gates and cabinets, since the key cannot walk off while the lock hangs open.
5) What is the closest brass-body padlock to the ABUS 83IC/45 with the same shackle diameter?
The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is the closest match on body material and shackle size: it is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, the same shackle diameter the ABUS 83IC/45 carries. The ABUS 83IC/45 measures 1-27/32 inches wide with 15/16 inch horizontal and 63/64 inch vertical shackle clearance, so confirm those clearances against the hasp or chain you are locking before swapping between the two.
6) If I need an interchangeable core padlock instead of the ABUS 83IC/45 SFIC prep version, what else works?
The Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, so it takes a core rather than a fixed cylinder. The ABUS 83IC/45 is offered in a standard cylinder build and in an SFIC prep, less core build for facilities keying padlocks into an existing small format core system. Choose between them on which core platform your site already stocks and on the shackle length you need.
7) I need a padlock that will not let the key come out while it is open. Is the ABUS 83IC/45 the right choice?
The ABUS 83IC/45 is self locking, and its Z-Bar feature lets the same lock be set key retaining or non-key retaining. If you would rather buy that behavior fixed from the factory, the Sargent 758 is a key retaining padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, and the Sargent 858 is the non-key retaining version with a stainless steel shackle. Key retaining keeps the key captive until the lock is closed, which is the usual pick where a padlock must never be left hanging open.
8) Is the ABUS 83IC/45 brass padlock suitable for outdoor gates and exposed equipment?
It is built for it. The body is solid brass with chrome plating, and the hardened special alloy steel shackle carries a NANO PROTECT coating for corrosion resistance, so it is rated weather resistant. Typical uses are gates, grilles, cellar windows, sheds, barriers, switchgear cabinets and tool boxes. Brass and stainless shackle combinations are the usual choice where a plain steel padlock would rust solid through a winter.
9) How wide is the ABUS 83IC/45 body, and will it clear a tight hasp?
The lock body measures 1-27/32 inches wide. That is a mid-size commercial padlock body, so check the recess on a flush or shrouded hasp before ordering, and remember the shackle has to swing within 15/16 inch of horizontal clearance. On an open staple hasp there is no issue.
10) What other SFIC or removable core padlocks could I use instead of the ABUS 83IC/45?
If the facility is standardized on Sargent, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, and the 758 and 858 series cover key-retaining and non-key-retaining builds in US4 satin brass. Those go on an existing Sargent key system directly. The ABUS 83IC/45 is the pick when you want the SFIC-prep body plus the Z-Bar key-retention switch in one lock.
11) Is there a brass padlock with the same 5/16 inch shackle if I need to match a Schlage key system?
The Schlage KS23D/KS23F brass padlock uses the same 5/16 inch shackle diameter, so it swaps into the same hasps and chains as the ABUS 83IC/45. Pick that one if your keying is already Schlage. Stay with the ABUS if you want the removable, re-keyable ABUS cylinder or the less-core SFIC build.
12) Is the ABUS 83 padlock strong enough for a high-theft-risk location, or should I look at a shrouded lock?
The 83 is ABUS's service padlock line for objects of higher value at high risk of theft, with a solid brass body and hardened steel shackle. If bolt cutters are the specific worry, the Closed Shackle (CS) variant of the 83 raises the lock body around the shackle so there is far less exposed steel to get jaws onto. The 83IC/45 as configured is the standard open shackle form.
13) For a fully exposed outdoor gate, is there a padlock with a more corrosion-resistant body than the ABUS 83IC/45?
The ABUS 83IC/45 is rated weather resistant and uses a chrome plated solid brass body with a NANO PROTECT coated special alloy steel shackle. Where you want a body that is stainless rather than brass, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less pop-out cylinder. Note that the G8R-521 ships without the cylinder, so you will need to plan the cylinder separately.
14) What if a 5/16 inch shackle is too light for the application?
The Medeco 5260 in the 52 Series uses a brass body with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter and M3 key technology in a satin chrome finish, a heavier shackle than the 5/16 inch shackle on the ABUS 83IC/45. Stepping up the shackle diameter also means checking that the hasp or chain link opening accepts it, since the 83IC/45 clears 15/16 inch horizontally.
15) Is the Medeco 54515G a direct substitute for the ABUS 83IC/45?
No. The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder. It matches the ABUS 83IC/45 on shackle diameter but it is an electronic credential lock rather than a mechanical pin tumbler padlock, so it carries audit and access scheduling requirements the mechanical 83IC/45 does not. Pick the 54515G only if you are running an electronic key system; otherwise stay mechanical.
16) Can I replace a damaged shackle on the ABUS 83 instead of buying a new padlock?
Yes. The 83 series is built for easy shackle change, and the shackle can be exchanged in seconds. For an MRO crew running a fleet of these on gates and cabinets, that means a cut or corroded shackle is a parts swap rather than a re-key and a new lock. The cylinder comes out the same way for re-keying.
17) Is the ABUS 83IC/45 a commercial-duty padlock or a residential one?
Commercial. It is classed as commercial door hardware and sits in ABUS's service padlock family, aimed at securing gates, grilles, switchgear, tool boxes and barriers where theft risk is real. Solid brass body, hardened alloy steel shackle, and a high precision pin tumbler cylinder with a patented pinning window rather than a wafer or disc mechanism.
18) Which padlock has a wider body than the ABUS 83IC/45 for a broader hasp?
The Sargent 82-856 uses a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case with a stainless steel shackle, a wider footprint than the 1-27/32 inch width of the ABUS 83IC/45. The 82-856 is non-key retaining and is built on the KESO platform, so it keys into a different system than the ABUS cylinder. Measure the hasp staple spacing before committing, since a wider case can foul a tight staple.
