American Lock AME-A1166UN BLK 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does "uncombinated" mean on the American Lock A1166UN padlock, and will it come with keys?
Uncombinated means the A1166UN ships without a keying combination set in the cylinder. A locksmith pins the APTC14 6-pin cylinder to whatever keyway and bitting your facility already uses, so it can be brought onto an existing American Lock system rather than adding another key. Key counts are an order choice: 0, 1, 3, or 4 keys per lock, with 2 keys per lock as the standard selection. If you want the lock ready to use out of the box, order the keyed different A1166 instead.
2) Is this aluminum padlock acceptable for lockout tagout in a food processing plant?
The anodized aluminum body is called out as suitable for lockout in food processing facilities, and the finish is corrosion resistant for washdown and other rough environments. The chrome plated boron alloy shackle handles the exposure as well. For nine-color coding by trade or by employee, the A1166UN body is offered in black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow.
3) Can I color code padlocks by department and still have them all on my own key system?
Yes. Order the A1166UN in the colors you need (black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red, yellow) and, because every one arrives uncombinated, your locksmith pins them all to the same bitting or to a master keyed hierarchy you already run. Color handles the visual identification, the cylinder handles access. The 6-pin rekeyable cylinder offers over 40,000 key changes, so a large plant can keep departments on separate change keys under one master.
4) What is a comparable safety padlock to the American Lock A1166 if I need the same body size in another brand?
For a same-size alternative, the ABUS 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, 1/4 inch shackle diameter and a 1-1/2 inch body width, matching the A1166UN's 1-1/2 inch body and 1/4 inch shackle. The ABUS 76/40 is close too, a plastic-covered aluminum core lock with a 1/4 inch shackle and a 1 37/64 inch width. The difference is the body treatment: the American Lock is bare anodized aluminum, which is what makes it acceptable for food processing areas, while the ABUS 76/40 carries a plastic jacket.
5) I run interchangeable cores across the site - is the A1166UN the right choice or should I look at a removable core padlock?
If your facility standardizes on interchangeable cores, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, and the Sargent 82-856 is a non-key-retaining padlock with a 2 by 2 inch brass case and stainless shackle built on KESO cylinders. The American Lock A1166UN is a rekeyable padlock supplied uncombinated, meaning its 6-pin cylinder is pinned by you rather than swapped as a core.
6) The hasp I am locking needs a thicker shackle than the A1166UN - what padlock goes heavier?
For a heavier shackle, the Medeco 5260 brass body padlock in the 52 Series carries a 7/16 inch shackle diameter, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F brass padlock and Medeco 54515G XT electronic padlock both use a 5/16 inch shackle. The American Lock A1166UN shackle is 1/4 inch diameter with a 1-1/2 inch shackle length.
7) Can I use a Sargent 758 padlock in place of the American Lock A1166UN for lockout tagout?
They are built for different jobs. The Sargent 758 is a key retaining padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, and the Sargent 858 is the non-key-retaining version of the same body with a stainless steel shackle. The A1166UN is a solid aluminum body offered in nine lockbody colors - black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow - which is what makes it usable for per-worker lockout identification. A brass-finish padlock gives you no color coding.
8) What is the difference between the American Lock A1165, A1166 and A1167 aluminum padlocks?
All three are the same 1-1/2 inch (38mm) wide solid aluminum rekeyable body with a boron alloy shackle; they differ in shackle clearance, and the A1166 is the mid-length option at 1-1/2 inch. Each number is also sold in the keying variations you need: keyed different (A1166), uncombinated (A1166UN), zero-bitted (A1166KZ), keyed alike (A1166KA), master keyed keyed different (A1166MK) and keyed alike master keyed (A1166KAMK).
9) Should I order uncombinated or zero-bitted padlocks for my shop?
Uncombinated (A1166UN) locks come with no combination set at all, which is what you want when your locksmith is pinning them into an existing American Lock keyway and bitting. Zero-bitted (A1166KZ) locks arrive pinned to all-zero cuts so they can be keyed quickly on site with a code key. If you have no key machine and no locksmith, neither one is right, take the keyed different A1166 or the keyed alike A1166KA.
10) Can I get these padlocks with a chain so they stay attached to the gate or panel?
Yes. The A1166UN can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, or with no chain at all. The chain keeps the lock tethered to the equipment so it does not go missing between lockouts.
11) How much cut resistance does a boron shackle give compared with a stainless steel padlock shackle?
The A1166UN uses a 1/4 inch chrome plated boron alloy shackle, which American Lock specifies for cut resistance rather than corrosion alone. If your concern is a marine or chemical environment more than bolt cutters, a stainless shackle lock such as the Sargent 858 or the solid stainless body Medeco 521 G8R is the direction to go. For a heavier shackle section, the Medeco 5260 runs 7/16 inch and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F 5/16 inch, both in brass bodies rather than aluminum.
12) I need a smaller lockout padlock than the American Lock A1166UN - what else is there?
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, against the 1-1/2 inch body and 1/4 inch shackle of the A1166UN. Both use an anodized aluminum body; the smaller footprint of the 72/30 suits tighter hasps and smaller breaker lockouts.
13) What should I use instead of the A1166UN for a padlock exposed to weather outdoors?
For wet or outdoor openings, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body supplied less pop-out cylinder, and the Medeco 54515G XT electronic padlock is rated indoor/outdoor. The American Lock A1166UN uses an anodized aluminum body with a corrosion resistant finish for tough environments, but it is not a sealed weather-tight design.
14) How many of these padlocks come in a case if I am buying for a whole facility?
The A1166UN ships 6 per shelf pack and 24 per master carton, which makes it straightforward to break out a shelf pack per department or color and still order in full cartons.
15) Is this padlock meant for commercial or residential use?
The A1166UN is a commercial padlock, catalogued for lockout duty rather than shed-and-gate residential use. The solid aluminum body, boron shackle and rekeyable 6-pin cylinder are aimed at plants, MRO stockrooms and facility lockout programs where the lock has to be brought onto a keying system and replaced in quantity.
16) Would the ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic work as a substitute for the A1166UN on a lockout station?
It is a different class of lock. The ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic is a black sleeve padlock with a 13/64 inch shackle diameter and a 1-17/64 inch body width, sold in a 3-pack. The American Lock A1166UN is a 1-1/2 inch wide aluminum body with a 1/4 inch boron alloy shackle for cut resistance, and it ships 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton for stocking a lockout program.
