Disc Padlocks

About

Disc Padlocks provide superior protection against cutting. They are popular for storage facilities, gates, and trucks. Stainless steel body offers outstanding corrosion resistance. The low profile rotating shackle is extremely difficult to cut Abus models are available in standard 2-3/4" width or oversized 3-3/16" and 3-3/4" widths Disc padlocks are designed differently than traditional padlocks. Disc padlocks have the same components as other padlocks including a lock body, a hardened steel shackle, and a pin cylinder, but that is where the similarity ends. The round body of the disc padlock houses a rotating shackle. The key is inserted into the keyway and when the key is turned, the shackle rotates unlocking the disc padlock. Turning the key back locks the shackle. While the padlock is in the unlocked position, the key cannot be removed from the cylinder. This is a security feature that prevents the padlock from being left in the unlocked position. The advantage of the disc padlock design is that very little of the shackle is exposed. The shackle of the padlock is shielded making it practically impossible to access it with cutting tools.The design of the disc padlock is only one of the features that make it one of the most secured and durable padlocks available. The stainless steel lock body and brass cylinder and pins are designed for all weather and marine applications. Small holes in the padlock body allow water to drain from the body reducing internal component corrosion. Select disc padlocks for security and durability.
