American Lock A50 Padlock
The American Lock A50 is a rectangular steel padlock designed for general security needs. It uses a five-pin cylinder with a keyed-different configuration so each lock opens only with its own key. The boron shackle resists cutting and sawing. This padlock suits gates, sheds and storage units where a durable mechanical lock is required.
Steel Body and Boron Shackle
The rectangular steel body measures 2 13/32 inches high by 2 inches wide and 7/8 inch thick. A standard shackle made of boron alloy provides a 3/8 inch diameter with 1 1/8 inch clearance height and 3/4 inch width. No interchangeable core or rekeyable cylinder is fitted, so the lock remains as supplied. Weather-resistant construction allows outdoor exposure without corrosion concerns.
Five-Pin American AK5 Keyway
The cylinder uses an American AK5 keyway with five pins and ships keyed different for immediate use. No control key registration is needed and the core cannot be swapped or rekeyed later. Buyers who need a master-keyed system or interchangeable cores should choose a different model. The fixed keying simplifies key management for single-lock applications.
