American Lock AME-A1166KAMK BLK 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the KAMK suffix mean on the American Lock A1166 padlock?
KAMK means keyed alike and master keyed. Every lock you order on that key code opens with the same change key, and they also operate under a master key so a supervisor or safety manager carries one key for the whole group. If you want each lock on its own key instead, the A1166MK is keyed different under a master, and the A1166KA is keyed alike with no master. For a plant that wants no factory bitting at all, the A1166UN is uncombinated and the A1166KZ is zero-bitted for your own keying.
2) Do I have to give a key code when ordering the American Lock A1166KAMK?
Yes, a key code entry is part of the order. Because this is the keyed alike and master keyed version, the code tells the factory which change key group and which master system to cut it to, so locks added later match what you already have in the plant.
3) My facility standardizes on interchangeable core - can I key the A1166KAMK into that system or do I need a different padlock?
The A1166KAMK uses a rekeyable 6-pin APTC14 cylinder and ships keyed alike under a master key. If the site runs removable core, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, which lets the padlock take the same core as the rest of the openings. The American Lock is rekeyed at the cylinder instead of by swapping a core.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the American Lock A1166KAMK aluminum safety padlock from another brand?
The ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock is the nearest match on the key dimensions: it uses a 6-pin cylinder, a 1/4 inch shackle diameter and a 1-1/2 inch body width, the same 1/4 inch shackle diameter and 1-1/2 inch body width the A1166KAMK carries. The difference is construction - the A1166KAMK uses a solid aluminum body, while the 74/40 is an insulated body from the ABUS 74 Series.
5) For an outdoor gate or exterior chain, is the A1166KAMK the right padlock or should I use something else?
The A1166KAMK is a 1-1/2 inch solid aluminum body lock with a 1/4 inch shackle, built for lockout tagout and food processing environments. For weather-exposed gate work, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, and the Sargent 858 uses a stainless steel shackle in a US4 satin brass body. Those stainless bodies and shackles are aimed at exterior service rather than at colored safety lockout.
6) Is the American Lock A1166 padlock safe to use in a food processing plant?
Yes. The body is solid aluminum with an anodized finish, which the manufacturer calls out as suitable for lockout tagout in food processing facilities, and the same finish resists corrosion in washdown and other rough environments. The shackle is chrome plated boron alloy rather than bare steel.
7) Can I get American Lock A1166 lockout padlocks in different colors to identify each trade?
Nine body colors are available: black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow. Crews commonly assign one color per trade or per shift so an energized lock can be traced to its owner at a glance. The color choice does not change the body size, keying or shackle.
8) How many keys come with each American Lock A1166KAMK padlock, and can I order it with none?
Standard supply is 2 keys per lock. You can also specify 1, 3 or 4 keys per lock, or 0 keys per lock when the locks are going into an existing master key system and you only want the master or a controlled set of change keys issued from the toolroom.
9) Can the American Lock A1166 padlock be rekeyed in the field?
It uses a 6-pin APTC14 rekeyable cylinder with over 40,000 key changes available, so a locksmith can rekey it rather than scrapping the lock when an employee leaves or a system is rebitted. That is the practical difference from a sealed, non-serviceable safety padlock.
10) What is the difference between the American Lock A1165, A1166 and A1167 aluminum padlocks?
All three share the 1-1/2 inch wide solid aluminum body; they differ in shackle. The A1166 carries a 1/4 inch chrome plated boron shackle with 1-1/2 inch clearance. If you need a different shackle height or style for a deeper hasp or a gang lockout, the A1165 and A1167 are the sibling models in the same family, and each is offered in the same keying choices (KD, UN, KZ, KA, MK, KAMK).
11) What else could I use instead of an aluminum lockout padlock for a wet or outdoor application?
If the concern is weather rather than food-plant washdown, ABUS makes an insulated 74/40 safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, 1/4 inch shackle and 1-1/2 inch body width, so it swaps one for one on the same hasp holes. The ABUS 76/40 uses a plastic-covered aluminum core with the same 1/4 inch shackle. For a heavier outdoor lock, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight solid stainless steel body padlock. Note the ABUS 72/30 is a smaller 1-1/4 inch body with a 3/16 inch shackle and is not a drop-in for a hasp drilled for 1/4 inch.
12) Is the ABUS 76/40 a drop-in substitute for the A1166KAMK?
Not exactly. The ABUS 76/40 shares the 1/4 inch shackle diameter with the A1166KAMK, but its body is a plastic-covered aluminum core measuring 1 37/64 inch wide, against the A1166KAMK's 1-1/2 inch solid anodized aluminum body. If the color coding on your lockout program needs to survive scuffing in a washdown area, the anodized aluminum and plastic-covered constructions behave differently, so confirm which the safety program specifies.
13) What should I order instead of the A1166KAMK if I want a brass-body padlock for general property use?
For brass rather than aluminum, the Sargent 758 is a key retaining padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter in satin chrome, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle. All three carry heavier shackles than the A1166KAMK's 1/4 inch, and none of them are the colored anodized aluminum body used for lockout identification.
14) Is there an electronic or audit-trail padlock to use in place of the keyed A1166KAMK?
The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder included. The A1166KAMK is a mechanical rekeyable padlock with a 6-pin cylinder and a 1/4 inch shackle, ordered keyed alike under a master key. Choose the XT where access needs to be controlled electronically rather than by cut key.
15) Can I order the aluminum safety padlock with a chain attached?
A #40 sash chain, 9 inches long and zinc plated, is an option on the A1166, or you can take it with no chain. The chain is what keeps the lock tethered to a valve handle or panel so it does not get pocketed or lost between shifts.
16) How are American Lock A1166 padlocks packed for a bulk facility order?
They come 6 per shelf pack and 24 per master carton, which suits stocking a toolroom or spreading a color-coded set across several departments.
17) Would the ABUS T84MB/30 work for marine or coastal openings instead of the A1166KAMK?
The ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic is built for that exposure, with a black sleeve, a 13/64 inch shackle diameter and a 1 17/64 inch body width, and it is sold in a 3-pack. The A1166KAMK is a corrosion resistant anodized aluminum lock with a heavier 1/4 inch shackle and a 1-1/2 inch body, so the two differ in both shackle gauge and body size - check the hasp opening before switching.
