American Lock Anodized Aluminum Padlock Purple Keyed Alike

SKU CH-NM5B-XFWRA

  • TypeSafety
  • Anodized aluminum body resists corrosion in harsh environments

  • Keyed alike system allows one key to open multiple locks
  • Compact 1 7/8 in body fits tight lockout points
  • Purple anodized finish enables quick color-coded identification

Purpose and user

The American Lock anodized aluminum padlock in purple is built for lockout safety programmes that require colour-coded identification. It suits maintenance teams and facility managers who need a lightweight, non-conductive body with a boron alloy shackle for standard isolation points.

Practical limits of the shackle

The 1/4 in shackle diameter and 13/16 in horizontal clearance restrict use to hasps, valve handles or chain links that accept those dimensions. The open shackle design allows quick placement but does not protect against bolt-cutter attacks the way a shrouded model would.

Build quality and daily implications

An anodized aluminium body resists corrosion while keeping weight low for belt carry. The boron alloy shackle adds cut resistance without the bulk of hardened steel. Keyed-alike cylinders mean one key opens every padlock in the set, simplifying key management for authorised personnel. Non-removable keyways prevent accidental key loss during lockout procedures.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the purple anodized aluminum body or a different colour for my lockout system?

The purple anodized finish provides colour-coded identification and corrosion resistance; select it when your safety procedure assigns purple to a specific energy source or department.

How does the 1 1/2 in vertical shackle clearance work on a real hasp or chain link?

It allows the boron-alloy shackle to pass through standard lockout hasps and chain links up to 1 1/2 in tall while the 13/16 in horizontal clearance fits typical staple widths.

What does the keyed-alike cylinder mean for key management across multiple padlocks?

Every padlock in the keyed-alike set opens with the same standard key, so one key controls all units instead of carrying a separate key for each lock.
