Long shackle: 3 in vertical clearance; nylon body. This keyed-different padlock from the Brady Velocity series locks an energy-isolating device during machine maintenance: it helps hold the energy-isolating device in its safe position under the procedure. Each padlock opens with its own key; the facility must control all copies of the key. Its 1-1/2 in wide nylon body is lightweight and, according to Brady, resists impact and tampering. The 1/4 in diameter steel shackle offers 3 in of vertical clearance, long enough to fit through a hasp or a thicker lockout device. The cylinder retains the key while the padlock is unlocked, which reduces lost keys and unauthorized access.

Choosing keying and controlling keys

Different keys alone do not prove exclusive keying across the entire facility. For personal protection, assign and identify each padlock under the procedure, control every copy of its key and check for duplicate key codes among padlocks in service. The padlock supplements the isolation, stored-energy control and verification required by the procedure; it does not replace these steps.

Applications of the nylon padlock with a 3 in shackle

The SDPL-76ST is intended for electricians, mechanics and maintenance crews who follow a lockout procedure: locking a disconnect, a circuit breaker or a valve with the appropriate device, or a hasp when several workers service the same equipment. The colour makes it easy to recognize at a glance the padlock of a worker, a trade or a department. Follow the facility's written lockout program.

Inspecting the cylinder and shackle

Shut down the equipment and isolate the energy source according to your written procedure, then place your personal padlock on the energy-isolating device or on the hasp. Keep the key with you throughout the job and identify the padlock with a lockout tag. Remove it only when the work is complete and the equipment can be safely restarted. Keep the cylinder clean and take out of service a padlock whose shackle is bent or that does not close properly.

FAQ about the nylon padlock with a 3 in shackle

What does keyed different mean?

Each padlock opens with its own key. It is the usual choice for each worker's personal padlock in a lockout procedure.

What are the shackle dimensions?

The steel shackle is 1/4 in (0.64 cm) in diameter with 3 in (7.62 cm) of vertical clearance.

Can the key be removed while the padlock is open?

No. The cylinder retains the key while the padlock is unlocked; it is removed once the shackle is closed.

Can several padlocks be applied to the same equipment?

Yes, with a hasp: each worker applies his or her own padlock, and the equipment stays locked until the last padlock is removed.

How is the padlock sold?

Individually, in the colour you choose among the nine offered. This item is not stocked: allow 10 to 13 days for delivery.

Suggestions for the lockout workstation

Based on task-specific risks, consider 3M Virtua Max safety glasses (YA11329) with clear lenses, woven flame-resistant ARC2 gloves (GS13FRNE) with neoprene-coated palm, an MSA V-Gard class E hardhat (TA80), a Pioneer FR-TECH 7 oz flame-resistant shirt (V129) and Laser Lite 32 dB disposable earplugs (OA1101). PPE selection depends on hazards and the procedure; the listed items do not authorize energized work.

Under “Accessories” at the bottom of the page. Looking for complementary equipment? Consider the hasp (CA2) by Master Lock for six padlocks, with a 1 in opening, the labels (CAET5) with French danger do-not-operate wording, and the lockout (CAC1) in the single design for compatible miniature circuit breakers. Verify compatibility with the installation and site procedure.
