ABUS 74/40 Red Padlocks for Lockout/Tagout Programs
This six-pack contains ABUS 74/40 red safety padlocks, manufacturer part 09805. The locks are keyed different and combine a plastic-covered aluminum body with a vinyl-coated steel shackle. Their key-retaining, automatic-locking design supports controlled lock assignment during lockout/tagout procedures.
ABUS identifies the body and shackle as insulated against electric shock. The shackle remains steel beneath its protective coating, so buyers should not treat it as a plastic shackle or substitute the product for workplace-specific electrical hazard assessment and energy-control procedures.

Lockout/Tagout Program Note
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 governs the employer's control-of-hazardous-energy program. A padlock does not make a workplace or procedure OSHA compliant by itself. Employers are responsible for device selection and standardization, written procedures, employee training, periodic inspections, and task-specific implementation.
Confirm Keying and Fit Before Ordering
Part 09805 is the keyed-different red configuration. Confirm that keyed-different locks match the facility's lock-assignment policy, and measure the intended isolation point or hasp before ordering. Keyed-alike and master-keyed systems are separate configurations and should not be assumed from this listing.
FAQ - ABUS 74/40 Red Lockout Padlocks
Are the six padlocks keyed alike?
No. ABUS part 09805 is a keyed-different configuration, so each lock operates with its assigned key rather than one common key for the set. Confirm the keys included with ASA's packaged set before placing it into service.
Is the shackle plastic or steel?
The shackle is steel with a vinyl coating and ABUS NANO-PROTECT treatment. ABUS describes the lock body and shackle as insulated, but the underlying shackle is not plastic.
Is this padlock OSHA certified?
No individual padlock makes an energy-control program OSHA compliant or carries a general OSHA product certification. These locks can support an employer's lockout/tagout procedures, while the employer remains responsible for meeting OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 and other applicable requirements.
What is the shackle clearance?
ABUS lists 1-1/2 inches of vertical clearance, 3/4 inch of horizontal clearance, and a 9/32-inch shackle diameter. Measure the attachment point or lockout hasp before ordering.
Can these padlocks be used with a lockout hasp?
They can be used with a compatible hasp when its locking holes accommodate the 9/32-inch shackle and the combination fits the employer's procedure. Verify the complete assembly before use.
What is included in this listing?
This ASA listing is for six red ABUS 74/40 keyed-different padlocks. Lockout hasps, tags, and other energy-isolation devices are sold separately.
