About This Padlock:
You see many engineering applications that use the octagon to increase stengeth. This is simply due to the geometry of the eight sides and this is why you will often see crow bars built from octaganol steel.
Masterlock is the first manufacturer to incorporate this technology into the shackle of a combination padlock making it more resistant to bolt cutting attacks. Unfortuantly it will not make much difference to attacks from hacksaws.
The lock is resettable to you own 4 digit code which can be done when the lock is in the open position. There are two body types to select from depending on your budget.
Body Types Available:
We have two types of this lock. Please select your choice from the drop down menu about, choosing either the die-cast and the brass body.
