American Lock AME-A3106WOKD BLK 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the American Lock A3106WO padlock come with a core, or do I have to supply my own?
No core ships with it. The A3106WO is built to take a small format interchangeable core, and the cylinder is not included, so you supply an SFIC core in your own keyway and keying. That is the whole point of the WO (without cylinder) designation: a locksmith or facility keying their own system drops in a core that matches the building's existing SFIC system. If you want a padlock that arrives with a cylinder already in it, order the A3106CY family instead.
2) What size hasp opening do I need for the A3106WO aluminum padlock?
Shackle geometry drives that. The A3106WO uses a 1/4 inch diameter shackle with 3/4 inch clearance between the legs and 1-1/2 inch of vertical clearance under the crossbar. Your hasp staple has to pass a 1/4 inch shackle and the two points you are locking through must sit inside that 3/4 inch span. The body itself is 1-1/2 inches wide, so tight hasp pockets are worth measuring before you buy a case.
3) Can I color code American Lock A3106WO padlocks by department or crew?
Yes, and that is a common use for them. The A3106WO body comes anodized in black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow. Facilities running lockout or tool crib programs usually assign a color per trade or per shift, then put the same SFIC keyway in all of them so one master opens the lot. Each color carries its own part number suffix, for example A3106WOBLU for blue and A3106WORED for red.
4) I need all my padlocks on one key. Is keyed different the right choice?
No. The A3106WO keyed different version gives every lock its own key, which suits self-storage tenants, individual lockers, or anywhere each user should only open their own padlock. If you want one key to open the whole group, order the A3106WOKA keyed alike version. If you need each lock separately keyed but one master to open them all, that is A3106WOMK, and A3106WOKAMK combines keyed alike with a master. There is also A3106WOUN uncombinated for shops that pin their own.
5) Will the A3106WO work with the SFIC cores already in my building's doors?
That is exactly what it is for. The A3106 takes a small format interchangeable core, so if your doors run SFIC cylinders you pull a core from your system and put it in the padlock, and the padlock falls under the same masterkey system as the openings. American Lock offers 16 interchangeable core keyways on this line, so you can match the keyway you already run. Confirm your cores are small format, not large format, before ordering.
6) I need a removable core padlock but the hasp needs a longer shackle than the A3106WO gives me. What else works?
The A3106WO has a 1-1/2 inch shackle length with a 3/4 inch shackle clearance width, which limits it to tight hasps and standard lockers. For a thicker hasp or a chain pass-through, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle. Both keep the interchangeable-core concept so you retain keying control, but the Sargent body is a different footprint than the 1-1/2 inch wide aluminum A3106WO body.
7) Will an aluminum padlock hold up outdoors or in a chemical plant?
The solid aluminum body on the A3106 is corrosion resistant and spark resistant, which is why it gets specified for utility work and harsh or wash-down environments where a plated steel body would rust. It is also lightweight, which matters when a crew carries dozens of them. The shackle is boron alloy steel for cut resistance, so you are not giving up shackle strength to get the aluminum body.
8) What is the difference between the American Lock A3105WO, A3106WO and A3107WO?
They are the same solid aluminum SFIC padlock family in different shackle heights. The A3106WO carries a 1-1/2 inch shackle length, which is the mid option; the A3105WO is the shorter shackle and the A3107WO the taller one. Pick by how much material you are locking through: a thick hasp, a chain link, or a stack of tabs needs the longer shackle, and a tight self-storage or locker hasp is better served by the shorter one, since less exposed shackle means less to attack with bolt cutters.
9) Can I get the A3106WO padlock with a chain attached so it doesn't get lost?
Yes. The A3106WO can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, attached to the lock body, or with no chain at all. The chained version is the one meters and utility crews use so the padlock stays with the enclosure instead of ending up in a truck bed.
10) What are the alternatives to an aluminum SFIC padlock like the A3106WO?
Depends on what you are giving up the interchangeable core for. If you need a padlock that arrives with its own cylinder and a brass body, the Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock and the Sargent 858 is the non-key-retaining version, both with stainless steel shackles. Sargent also builds the 60-858-2 removable core padlock with a 2 inch shackle if you want a longer reach with a removable core. For a lighter anodized aluminum safety lock in a smaller footprint, the ABUS 72/30 runs a 1-1/4 inch body and a 3/16 inch shackle, versus the A3106's 1-1/2 inch body and 1/4 inch shackle. The ABUS 74/40 matches the 1-1/2 inch body width and 1/4 inch shackle but is an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder.
11) Is the ABUS 72/30 a direct substitute for the American Lock A3106WO on a lockout or tool crib program?
Not dimensionally. The ABUS 72/30 anodized aluminum safety padlock has a 1-1/4 inch body width and a 3/16 inch shackle diameter, while the A3106WO is a 1-1/2 inch wide aluminum body with a 1/4 inch shackle. The heavier shackle on the A3106WO means the two will not share the same hasp openings or the same shackle bite. The 72/30 is also a fixed-cylinder safety lock; the A3106WO takes a small format interchangeable core, which is what lets you fold it into an existing facility keying system.
12) For an exposed outdoor gate, should I use the A3106WO or something else?
The A3106WO uses a solid aluminum body, which is corrosion resistant and spark resistant and light enough for high-volume issue to crews. For a fully exposed marine or wash-down location, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body and is supplied less the pop-out cylinder, so it also lets you install your own core. The ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic uses a black sleeve body with a 13/64 inch shackle diameter and a 1-17/64 inch body, a much lighter duty size than the 1-1/2 inch A3106WO.
13) We are moving to audit trail and access scheduling on our padlocks. Is there an alternative to the A3106WO?
Yes, but it is a different class of product. The A3106WO is a mechanical small format interchangeable core padlock with no electronics. The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and a cylinder included. If you need the mechanical lock for the bulk of the openings and electronic control only on a few, note the 5/16 inch Medeco shackle is heavier than the 1/4 inch shackle on the A3106WO, so hasps sized for the aluminum lock may not accept it.
14) Is the ABUS 76/40 an alternative to the A3106WO for equipment that gets knocked around?
It is a reasonable alternative if you want a non-marring body. The ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock with a 1/4 inch shackle diameter and a 1-37/64 inch width, so it matches the A3106WO on shackle diameter and sits close on body width against its 1-1/2 inches. The A3106WO uses a bare solid aluminum body with a black anodized finish and accepts a small format interchangeable core, so it is the one to pick when the lock has to key into an existing system.
15) How many keys come with the A3106WO padlock and can I order fewer?
Standard is two keys per lock. You can also specify one key per lock, three, four, or zero keys per lock if your locksmith is cutting keys from an existing system and does not want loose blanks in the shipment. On large orders the zero-key option is usually what keeps key control intact.
16) How does the A3106WO resist prying or being pulled off the hasp?
A dual ball bearing locking mechanism holds the shackle at both heels, so the lock resists pulling and prying rather than relying on a single latch. The shackle is 1/4 inch hardened boron alloy steel for cut resistance. It is a commercial-duty padlock, not a consumer one.
17) How are A3106WO padlocks packaged for a bulk order?
They ship six to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton. For a property manager rekeying a run of storage units or a utility stocking trucks, that master carton quantity is the number to build the order around.
18) Is a clear anodized A3106WO the same lock as the black one?
Same lock, different anodizing. The black anodized finish is the base A3106WO; clear is ordered as A3106WOCLR. Body, shackle and core prep are identical across all nine colors, so a mixed-color fleet still takes the same SFIC cores and the same keys.
