Red aluminium lockout padlock

The Abus 72HB/40-40 KAx12 is a red anodised aluminium padlock designed for lockout-tagout procedures. Its 12-pack keyed-alike configuration lets maintenance teams carry a single key across multiple isolation points.

Corrosion and heat resistant body

The aluminium body resists corrosion and heat while the hardened steel shackle withstands cutting attempts. A non-removable key prevents accidental key loss during routine safety checks.

Sustained industrial use

The open shackle with 13/16 in clearance fits standard lockout hasps and valve covers. Keyed-alike cylinders maintain consistent operation across shift changes without re-keying downtime.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 72HB/40-40 lockout padlock on a hasp, and which step is often missed?

Insert the 1/4 in hardened steel shackle through the hasp holes, close the shackle until it clicks, then verify the non-removable key cannot be pulled out while unlocked — that confirmation step is frequently skipped.

What maintenance or replacement will the 12-pack keyed-alike set need over time?

Lubricate the mechanical push-button cylinder periodically with dry graphite; replace any padlock whose anodized aluminum body shows deep corrosion or whose shackle has been bent or cut.

What limit appears first when the 72HB/40-40 is left locked outdoors under sustained load?

The 1/4 in hardened steel shackle will yield before the anodized aluminum body, so prolonged force on the 3/4 in horizontal or 1 9/16 in vertical clearance reaches the shackle's shear limit first.
