Lockout Padlock for Safety Procedures
The Abus lockout padlock in blue aluminium is designed for industrial lockout-tagout routines. Its anodised body resists corrosion and heat while the hardened steel shackle withstands forced entry attempts. Each unit is keyed differently so only the assigned key holder can remove it. The non-removable key feature prevents accidental unlocking during maintenance.
Replaces Basic Padlocks on Energy-Isolation Points
Standard padlocks lack the key-retained cylinder and colour-coded identification required by formal lockout programmes. This model upgrades those points when a facility adopts a documented energy-control procedure or when auditors require dedicated lockout hardware. The jump is worth it when multiple workers service the same equipment and each needs a personally keyed lock.
Verify Shackle Fit and Key Management Before
Measure the hasp or chain link to confirm the 13/16 in shackle width and 1/4 in diameter will pass through cleanly. Ensure your key-control system can track uniquely keyed cylinders across the workforce. No master-key option is included, so plan for individual key distribution and secure storage.

Questions about this item
What shackle diameter does the 1-1/2 inch blue lockout padlock use?
The shackle diameter is 1/4 inch, made from hardened steel with an open shackle design.
How do I install this padlock and what step is commonly missed?
Insert the 1/4 inch shackle through the hasp or latch point, then push the lock body down until the non-removable key cylinder engages; the step often missed is verifying the shackle fully seats in both locking notches.
What maintenance will this corrosion-resistant padlock need over time?
Periodically lubricate the keyway and shackle pivot with a dry PTFE spray to maintain smooth operation; the anodized aluminum body and hardened steel shackle resist corrosion and heat without further treatment.
