American Lock AME-A1105MK BLK 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the MK in American Lock A1105MK mean, and how is it different from the A1105KA?
MK means master keyed. The A1105MK aluminum safety padlock ships keyed different, so every lock opens on its own key, but the cylinders are set up under a master key so a supervisor or safety manager can open any of them with one key. The A1105KA is keyed alike (all locks share the same operating key) and the A1105KAMK is keyed alike plus master keyed. For lockout/tagout you almost always want keyed different, since the point is that only the worker who applied the lock can remove it, with the master reserved for authorized removal.
2) Is the American Lock A1105 padlock rekeyable, and can I add it to a master key system I already run?
The A1105MK uses a 5-pin tumbler rekeyable cylinder, so a locksmith can rekey it in the field rather than replacing the lock when an employee leaves or a key goes missing. It is supplied keyed different under a master, and there is a key code field on the order so you can specify the code that matches an existing American Lock system. If you would rather bit them yourself, the same padlock is sold as the A1105KZ zero bitted and the A1105UN uncombinated.
3) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the American Lock A1105MK aluminum safety padlock?
The A1105MK is a 1-1/2 inch wide aluminum body padlock with a 1/4 inch diameter shackle. The ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock matches both of those dimensions - it is listed at a 1-1/2 inch body width with a 1/4 inch shackle diameter, and runs a 6-pin cylinder. The ABUS 76/40 also carries a 1/4 inch shackle diameter, on a plastic-covered aluminum core body at 1-37/64 inch wide, so it seats on the same hasps but sits slightly wider across the body. If the lockout program is built around a 1-1/2 inch aluminum footprint, the 74/40 is the tighter dimensional swap of the two.
4) I need a smaller aluminum safety padlock than the A1105MK for tight lockout points - what else works?
The A1105MK body is 1-1/2 inches wide on a 1/4 inch shackle. The ABUS 72/30 anodized aluminum safety padlock steps down to a 1-1/4 inch body width with a 3/16 inch shackle diameter, which clears narrower hasp eyes and lets more locks stack on one lockout hasp. The ABUS T84MB/30 goes smaller again at 1-17/64 inch body width with a 13/64 inch shackle. Confirm the hasp eye accepts the reduced shackle diameter before standardizing, since a thinner shackle changes what the eye holds.
5) The A1105MK shackle clearance is only 1 inch and my hasp needs more - what padlock gives a longer shackle?
The A1105MK is built on a 1 inch shackle length, which is short by design for lockout points. When the hasp stack or the eye needs more reach, the Sargent 60-858-2 removable core padlock carries a 2 inch stainless steel shackle. The Sargent 82-856 also runs a stainless steel shackle, on a 2 by 2 inch brass case, non-key-retaining. Both move you off aluminum onto a heavier brass or steel body, so weight and finish change along with the reach.
6) Can I use a Sargent 758 or 858 padlock in place of the American Lock A1105MK for lockout tagout?
They are different tools. The A1105MK is an aluminum-body safety padlock offered across nine lockbody colors - black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow - which is how a lockout program assigns a color per trade or per worker. The Sargent 758 is a key-retaining standard padlock in a US4 satin brass finish and the Sargent 858 is the non-key-retaining version with a stainless steel shackle, both finished in brass rather than color-coded anodize. For gate, cabinet and general security padlocking the Sargent pair is at home; for a color-coded personal lockout scheme the aluminum body is what carries the color.
7) The A1105MK is rekeyable with a 5-pin cylinder - what if I need it on an interchangeable core system instead?
The A1105MK uses a keyed different 5-pin tumbler rekeyable cylinder, master keyed, and it is rekeyed in place rather than by pulling a core. If your facility standardizes on removable cores so one keying tech services every lock the same way, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle. The Medeco 521 G8R ships less pop-out cylinder, which lets you install the cylinder your system already runs. Those change the shackle and body along with the keying method, so check the hasp before switching.
8) Can I use an American Lock A1105 aluminum padlock for lockout in a food processing plant?
Yes. The A1105MK body is black anodized aluminum, and the anodized finish is what makes it suitable for lockout in food processing facilities, where a painted or coated lock can chip into product. The same finish resists corrosion in washdown and other rough environments. Body width is 1-1/2 inches (38mm).
9) What colors does the American Lock A1105 safety padlock come in, and do I need a specific one per trade?
Nine body colors: black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow. Most plants assign a color per trade or per shift so a glance at a hasp tells you whose lock is on it, electricians on one color, mechanical on another. The ordering codes follow the color, for example A1105MKBLK for black, A1105MKRED for red and A1105MKYLW for yellow. All nine carry the same aluminum body and boron shackle.
10) How many keys come with an American Lock A1105MK padlock and can I order it with none?
Standard is 2 keys per lock. You can also order 0, 1, 3 or 4 keys per lock. Zero keys is what large LOTO programs order when the keys are already held centrally or the padlocks are going into an existing keying system, and one key per lock is common for personal lockout, where a spare defeats the whole purpose of the lock. There is also a key code field on the order if you are adding to an existing master keyed system.
11) Can I get an American Lock aluminum padlock with a chain attached so it does not get lost?
Yes, the A1105MK can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, or with no chain at all. The chain option tethers the padlock to the equipment or the lockout station so it stays with the point of isolation instead of walking off in a toolbox. Specify chain or NONE when you order.
12) What is the difference between the American Lock A1105, A1106 and A1107 safety padlocks?
All three are the same 1-1/2 inch (38mm) wide solid aluminum lockbody with a boron alloy shackle, and each is offered in the full run of keying options: keyed different, keyed alike, master keyed, keyed alike master keyed, zero bitted and uncombinated. The A1105 is the one with the 1 inch (25mm) shackle clearance. The A1106 and A1107 are the taller shackle members of the same family, which is what you order when the hasp eye, chain or device tab is too deep for a 1 inch clearance.
13) Is a boron shackle worth it over a standard aluminum or plastic-bodied safety padlock?
The A1105MK pairs an aluminum lockout body with a chrome plated boron alloy shackle for cut resistance, so it gives you the light, non-conductive-bodied, color-coded lock a LOTO program wants without the easily cut shackle most safety padlocks carry. That matters where lockout points sit outdoors or in unsecured areas and the lock has to survive more than a procedural role. If you want a comparable in the same class from another brand, the ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock also runs a 1/4 inch shackle on a 1-1/2 inch body with a 6-pin cylinder, and the ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core lock with a 1/4 inch shackle. The ABUS 72/30 is a step down at 1-1/4 inch body and 3/16 inch shackle.
14) I need audit trail and access control on my padlocks, not just a key. What should I look at instead?
The A1105MK is a mechanical 5-pin rekeyable padlock, so it records nothing about who opened what. If you need electronic credentialing and audit capability on padlocked points, the Medeco 54515G XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle is the electronic option, non-key retaining, supplied with cylinder. For high-security mechanical keying instead, the Sargent 82-856 KESO padlock has a 2 x 2 inch brass case with a stainless shackle, and the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle and M3 key technology.
15) What padlock should I use instead of the A1105MK on outdoor or wash-down openings?
The A1105MK is an aluminum-body lock, and the description calls out an anodized corrosion-resistant finish for tough environments and food processing lockout. Where the opening is fully exposed, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock on a solid stainless steel body, supplied less pop-out cylinder so you key it to your own system. The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder, which is the route when you want an audit trail on the opening rather than a mechanical key. Both are heavier bodies than the 1-1/2 inch aluminum format.
16) What is the difference between the American Lock A1105MK and a brass-body padlock like the Medeco 5260 or Schlage KS23D?
Body material and shackle size are the split. The A1105MK is aluminum, 1-1/2 inches wide, on a 1/4 inch shackle with 1 inch of clearance, and it comes in nine lockbody colors for color-coded lockout. The Medeco 5260 is a brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter and M3 key technology in satin chrome, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle. The heavier shackles on those two will not pass a hasp eye drilled for a 1/4 inch shackle, and brass does not carry the anodized color coding a lockout program relies on.
17) I need the key to stay captive when the lock is open - is the A1105MK or something else the right choice?
Key retention is a per-model behavior. Among comparable padlocks, the Sargent 758 is the key-retaining standard padlock in US4 satin brass, while the Sargent 858 is the non-key-retaining version with a stainless steel shackle, and the Sargent 82-856 and Medeco 54515G XT are also non-key-retaining. If the requirement is that the key cannot be removed while the shackle is open - the usual rule on personal lockout so a lock is never left hanging keyed - the 758 is the one in this group built for it.
18) None of my lockout padlocks can be tethered - does the A1105MK offer a chain and do any comparable locks?
The A1105MK can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches long, zinc plated, or with no chain, which is how a lock gets tethered to a valve, cart or panel so it does not walk off. Among the comparable padlocks the chain is not part of how they are configured - the ABUS 72/30, ABUS 74/40 and Sargent 758 are ordered as the lock itself. If keeping the padlock physically attached to the equipment matters to the program, the chained configuration of the A1105MK covers it in one line item.
19) How are American Lock A1105 padlocks packed for a bulk LOTO rollout?
They come 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton. If you are standing up a program across a plant and assigning one color per trade, that packing is the unit to plan around, six of a color to a box.
