Brady 814136 Conventional Keyed to Differ Padlock, 6-Pack

The Brady 814136 is a set of six conventional padlocks engineered for reliable security and access control. Each padlock features a rugged reinforced nylon body paired with a durable aluminium shackle, providing a balance of strength and lightweight design. These locks are keyed to differ, meaning each individual padlock requires its own unique key, which enhances security by preventing unauthorized access with duplicate keys. The locks are finished in a high-visibility red color and feature a clear safety legend in three languages, making them suitable for professional safety and lockout applications.

Advantages

The primary advantage of these padlocks is their robust construction, utilizing reinforced nylon that offers excellent resistance to impact and environmental factors. The inclusion of an aluminium shackle provides a reliable locking mechanism while maintaining a lightweight profile. Because the locks are keyed to differ, they offer a high level of security for individual users or specific equipment stations. The compact dimensions ensure that they can be easily applied to various locking points, while the high-visibility red finish ensures they are easily identifiable in busy work environments.

Suitable for

• Securing industrial equipment and machinery
• Lockout-tagout procedures in professional environments
• Locking storage lockers or cabinets
• Restricting access to specific tools or areas

When it may not be suitable

These padlocks may not be suitable for high-security applications requiring heavy-duty steel shackles or specialized anti-cut protection. They are designed primarily for safety and access control rather than extreme physical security against forced entry.
