About this product
Important:
Each padlock comes with 2 keys but you do need to order your individual "master keys" separately. We recommend only 1 or 2 to begin with.
About This Padlock:
This closed-shackle model of the ABUS Extreme range is the latest thing in the padlock market. Offering the strength of hardened steel and the resistance of the closed shackle design.
The ABUS Extreme range has evolved from their 83 series which led the way in high security padlocks. The Extreme range uses the same technology in terms of high security features such as ball bearing locking which prevents lever and force torsion attached with crow bars. They also use special anti-pick barrels and hardened alloy steel shackles.
The Extreme model however incorporates the catophoretic coat found on the Granit range and the special Nano-protect treatment found on their 41 series. They then finish it off with a key guard to make a highly secure and weatherproof lock.
