Product News ABUS 74 Series LOTO


Padlocks ABUS are pleased to introduce their new 74 series Lock Out, Tag Out (LOTO) range of safety padlocks, designed to meet the specific market need of today’s safety aware workplace. The 74 Series safety padlocks are designed for LOTO


applications and help keep equipment and employees safely away from hazardous areas. At its basic level, LOTO is the supply of either one or a


series of padlocks that ensures machinery is not prematurely reactivated during maintenance. Over the last decade the UK has moved towards the LOTO market which originated in the USA and now represents a $150m market. The Lock Out, Tag Out 74 series marries the need for


safety with the need for convenience. With its innovative, lightweight design the series meets OSHA (USA Occupational Safety & Health Administration) lockout regulations and is well suited for harsh industrial environments. RRPs exc. VAT of the new 74 range begin at £14.79 for 40mm keyed to differ and £16.27 for keyed alike. For safety reasons keyed alike suites are not supplied on regular off the shelf keyways, but can be made up at a later date to enlarge suites previously supplied. The 74 series’ solid aluminium body is identifiable by non-conductive covers, available in 10 high-visibility colours that allow easy identification, are shipped with LOTO


labels and can be laser engraved for easy identification. The insulated steel shackle is anti-electric shock and the FDA (USA Food & Drug Administration) approved lubricant means the padlocks can be used in food


preparation areas. With a standard 38mm shackle clearance and 114mm longer shackle options available, these locks are designed for easy LOTO application. In order to guarantee the non-release of switches and valves, the 74 series is provided with only one key, which guarantees maximum security. Its key retaining feature


means it cannot be unlocked by accident, with KD, KA, KA custom & MK options ensuring the maximum range of on site options available. ABUS wholesale partners can supply this new LOTO service range and all lock distributors should be aware of this very lucrative market, which with ABUS can ensure this growing but sophisticated LOTO requirement can be matched with a professional service and product offer.
