American Lock Solid Steel Padlock 2 in Shackle KD

Solid Steel Padlock for Heavy-Duty Security

The American Lock solid steel padlock is built for demanding environments where physical strength matters. Its boron shackle and chrome-plated steel body resist cutting and corrosion. A five-pin cylinder with an American AK5 keyway provides pick resistance. The shackle measures 7/16 in diameter with a 2 in clearance height. This keyed-different lock suits industrial gates, storage units and outdoor enclosures.

Rekeyable Design Extends Service Life

Unlike sealed disposable locks, this model can be rekeyed when keys are lost or access changes. The interchangeable core is not included, but a locksmith can repin the existing cylinder without replacing the hardware. This avoids the cost and waste of buying new padlocks for every personnel change. The jump is worth it for facilities that manage multiple access points and need long-term key control.

Suits Managers Needing Key Control and Durability

Facility managers who require weather-resistant, high-security padlocks with master-key potential will benefit. Builders who need a second card or buyers who want more storage options should look elsewhere. The round body shape and 2 1/2 in width may not fit tight hasps or narrow chain links. Users needing an integrated interchangeable core or a different keyway profile must choose another model.
