Brass Padlocks

The brass padlock is by far the most popular padlock on the market and rightly so. Brass is weatherproof and cost-effective, and when used with a hardened steel shackle, it provides an excellent level of security. Shop from our wide range of brass padlocks from trusted brands such as ABUS, Shield, and Squire. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Brass Padlocks FAQs

There are many variables in production such as alloy composition, locking mechanism complexity, shackle treatment, and marine suitability. Some models use higher grade brass, others incorporate weather seals or corrosion-resistant components. We carry ranges like Shield, ABUS 65 Series, and ABUS Marine 65 to cover basic through more demanding use cases.

Most brass padlocks come with hardened steel shackles to improve cut resistance, though they are not typically rated to modern insurance standards such as CEN. A 50 mm brass padlock might be fitted with a double locking 8 mm hardened steel shackle, similar to those in CEN 3 locks — offering solid protection for general applications.
