How to read this model record

The official product name is “55/40 Brass Padlock”. This page retains the base model 55/40, with material and functional facts listed separately.

Check the body, shackle clearance and key or combination operation. Dimensions absent from the table must not be inferred from model-number digits.

Checks before ordering

This model record includes 5 facts from the official description. For a replacement padlock, also prepare photographs of the original, installation clearances and existing keying.

  • Send the full product name and order configuration to the supplier, not only the series number.
  • Check shackle clearance, diameter and cylinder configuration against the specific order drawing.
  • Product images are supplied by the original source; open the official documentation below for dimensions and installation methods.

Limitations

  • Compiled from the public ABUS US catalogue for the models listed in that region; these are not independent test results from this site.
  • Keyed-alike, keyed-different, keyway and shackle options may affect the order configuration. Colour and key-number variants do not receive separate pages.
  • Prices, stock, certification reports and compatibility with a particular door have not been verified. Series name alone does not establish compatibility.
