ABUS 72/40 KD Silver Lockout Padlock, Keyed Different, Aluminum, 1 in

Lockout Padlock for Safety Procedures

The ABUS 72/40 KD is an anodized aluminum lockout padlock built for energy-isolation routines. Its corrosion-resistant and heat-resistant body suits industrial environments where colour-coded identification matters. The keyed-different cylinder ensures each lock opens only with its own key, supporting strict personal-lockout policies. Non-removable key operation prevents accidental unlocking while the shackle is open.

Shackle Clearance Limits Access Points

The hardened-steel shackle measures 1/4 in diameter with a 1 in vertical height and 3/4 in horizontal clearance. These dimensions restrict use to hasps, chain links or valve handles that fit within the 13/16 in width across the shackle. Thicker bars or wider flanges will not pass through the opening, so verify the isolation point before specifying this model.

Simple Installation With One Common Error

Insert the shackle through the isolation point, snap it shut and remove the key — the cylinder stays locked until the same key returns. The only frequent mistake is selecting a shackle that is too short or too narrow for the hardware, which the fixed 1 in height and 3/4 in clearance cannot overcome. Match the measurements to the application before ordering.
