American Lock AME-A3561WOUN 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the American Lock A3561WOUN padlock come with a core or cylinder?
No core is included. The A3561WOUN is a small format interchangeable core padlock body shipped without a cylinder, so you supply and install your own SFIC core. It is also uncombinated, meaning no keying is set at the factory and your locksmith pins it to the keyway and bitting you already run on your doors.
2) Can I key this brass SFIC padlock to the same key as my Best, Arrow or Falcon door locks?
Yes. The A3561 brass padlock body accepts small format interchangeable cores in a choice of 16 SFIC keyways, including Best, Arrow and Falcon, so it can be brought onto the same key system as your door hardware. Because this version ships uncombinated, the core is pinned to your existing bitting rather than a factory combination.
3) What is the shackle clearance on the American Lock A3561 padlock, and will it fit my hasp?
The shackle is 5/16 inch in diameter with a 3/4 inch clearance between the legs and 2 inches of vertical shackle length. That 3/4 inch inside width is what decides hasp fit: your hasp staple and any chain link have to pass through it. Body width is 1-3/4 inches.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the American Lock A3561WOUN if I need a removable core padlock that ships with the shackle but no cylinder?
The Sargent 60-858-2 is the nearest match. It is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, which is the same 2 inch shackle length as the A3561WOUN, and like the A3561WOUN it is built to take an interchangeable core rather than a fixed cylinder. The A3561WOUN carries a brass body 1-3/4 inch wide with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and is supplied uncombinated with no cylinder included, so the core and keying are specified separately on either lock.
5) I want a brass padlock that arrives ready to key, not one that needs a separate core. What should I order instead of the A3561WOUN?
Look at the Sargent 758, a key retaining padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, or the Sargent 858, a non-key retaining padlock with a stainless steel shackle in the same US4 satin brass. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is another brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, matching the A3561WOUN shackle diameter. The A3561WOUN itself is supplied without a cylinder and uncombinated, so it is intended for shops that stock their own small format cores.
6) Why choose a solid brass padlock body over steel for dock, marine, or wastewater gates?
Brass is the reason to pick this one. The A3561 body is solid brass, which holds up in caustic, corrosive and salty conditions where a plated steel body corrodes, and American Lock lists it for marine and offshore security, utility work and tool cribs. The shackle is still hardened boron alloy steel for cut resistance, so you get corrosion resistance at the body without giving up the shackle.
7) What is the difference between the American Lock A3560, A3561 and A3562 brass SFIC padlocks?
All three are the same 1-3/4 inch solid brass small format interchangeable core family and all three ship without a core. They differ by shackle configuration within that series, so you pick the model that matches the shackle you need and then choose the keying suffix: WO/WOKD keyed different, WOUN uncombinated, WOKA keyed alike, WOMK keyed different master keyed, or WOKAMK keyed alike master keyed. The A3561 carries a 2 inch shackle at 5/16 inch diameter.
8) Should I order the uncombinated version or a keyed alike version of this American Lock brass padlock?
Order uncombinated (WOUN) when you have a locksmith or in-house key shop and you want the padlocks pinned into an existing SFIC master key system. If you just need a group of locks that open on one common key with no key system of your own, the A3561WOKA keyed alike version is the one to buy instead. Keyed different (A3561WO), master keyed (A3561WOMK) and keyed alike master keyed (A3561WOKAMK) round out the same body.
9) Can I get this padlock with a chain for gate or valve tagging use?
Yes. The A3561WOUN can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches long, zinc plated, attached, or with no chain at all. The chain option is common where the lock has to stay tethered to a gate, hydrant or valve so it does not walk off during a lockout.
10) How does the American Lock A3561 compare with other brass body padlocks like the Schlage KS23 or Medeco 5260?
The A3561 is a brass body SFIC padlock that ships without a core, so you core it to the keyway you already run. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F brass padlock uses the same 5/16 inch shackle diameter and is a 20 Series lock. The Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a heavier 7/16 inch shackle and M3 key technology in a satin chrome finish, which is a different key system entirely. Sargent's 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle if you are standardized on Sargent.
11) Is this American Lock brass padlock the right choice for electrical lockout/tagout?
No. The A3561 is a commercial security padlock in solid brass with a hardened steel shackle, which is conductive and heavy for personal lockout. For LOTO you want a non-conductive or insulated safety lock such as the ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock or the ABUS 76/40 plastic-covered aluminum core padlock. Use the brass American Lock for gates, tool cribs, utility and marine securing instead.
12) For a marine or wash-down location, is there a padlock with a non-brass corrosion-resistant body instead of the American Lock A3561WOUN?
Yes. The Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less its pop-out cylinder, so like the A3561WOUN it is ordered as a body and cylindered separately. The A3561WOUN uses a brass substrate body 1-3/4 inch wide, which the manufacturer describes as giving extra corrosion resistance in caustic, corrosive and salty environments. The choice is stainless body versus brass body rather than a difference in how the lock is keyed.
13) Can I use an ABUS 72/30 or 76/40 safety padlock in place of the American Lock A3561WOUN?
They are not interchangeable in the same role. The ABUS 72/30 is an anodized aluminum safety padlock with a 1-1/4 inch body width and 3/16 inch shackle diameter, and the ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock with a 1/4 inch shackle diameter and roughly 1-37/64 inch width. Both are lighter-bodied lockout style locks. The A3561WOUN is a 1-3/4 inch wide brass body with a 5/16 inch shackle that accepts a small format interchangeable core, which is what lets it be keyed into an existing door system.
14) Is there an electronic or audit-trail padlock alternative to the American Lock A3561WOUN?
The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and a cylinder included. That shackle diameter matches the A3561WOUN, so hasp fit is comparable, but the A3561WOUN is a purely mechanical brass padlock supplied without a cylinder and uncombinated, keyed by dropping in a small format interchangeable core.
15) What is the difference between the American Lock A3561WOUN and the Sargent 82-856 for a high-security brass padlock?
The Sargent 82-856 is a non-key retaining padlock in the KESO Series with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and a stainless steel shackle, so it is tied to the KESO cylinder platform. The American Lock A3561WOUN has a 1-3/4 inch wide brass body with a 2 inch shackle and takes a small format interchangeable core, with 16 keyway options including Best, Arrow and Falcon, so it can be brought onto whatever SFIC system the doors already use.
16) How many keys ship with an uncombinated American Lock A3561 padlock?
Key count is something you specify on the order. The A3561WOUN can be set up with 0, 1, 2 (standard), 3, or 4 keys per lock. Since the lock ships without a core and uncombinated, many buyers take 0 keys and have their key shop cut keys off the existing system when the core is pinned.
17) How are these padlocks packaged for a bulk facility order?
The A3561 brass SFIC padlock packs 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton, which is worth knowing if you are standardizing a campus or a utility yard and ordering in case quantities.
18) Is the American Lock A3561 body resistant to being pried or pulled off the hasp?
The locking mechanism uses dual stainless steel ball bearings engaging the shackle, which resists pulling and prying attacks. Combined with the 5/16 inch hardened boron alloy shackle, the vulnerable points on this lock are the shackle and the hasp it is fitted to rather than the retention.
19) I need an insulated or non-conductive padlock for electrical lockout. Does the A3561WOUN work?
For that use, the ABUS 74/40 is the purpose-built option, an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, 1/4 inch shackle diameter and 1-1/2 inch body width; the ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic uses a black sleeve over the body with a 13/64 inch shackle and 1-17/64 inch body. The American Lock A3561WOUN is a bare solid brass body 1-3/4 inch wide with a hardened boron alloy shackle, built for commercial keyed security rather than insulated lockout duty.
