Safety Lockout Padlock – Red – 38mm Steel Shackle

The KD-P38S-RED Safety Lockout Padlock is designed for use as part of workplace Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures, helping prevent machinery or equipment from being operated while maintenance, servicing, cleaning or repair work is being carried out.

This red safety lockout padlock features a 38mm steel shackle and is Keyed Different (KD). Each padlock has its own individual key, helping ensure the person who applies the lock maintains control of its removal.

Why Use a Safety Lockout Padlock?

Safety lockout padlocks provide a clear physical method of securing an energy isolation point while work is being carried out.

The bright red body and lockout identification labels make the padlock easy to recognise as part of a Lockout/Tagout procedure.

Because the KD-P38S-RED is Keyed Different, each padlock has its own individual key. This makes it suitable for personal lockout applications where an individual worker applies their own padlock and retains control of the key until their work is complete.

What Does Keyed Different Mean?

Keyed Different (KD) means each padlock has its own individual key combination.

The key supplied with one Keyed Different padlock is intended to operate that particular lock rather than other differently keyed padlocks.

This helps maintain individual control of locks when multiple workers are carrying out Lockout/Tagout procedures.

This safety lockout padlock can form part of procedures used to control hazards associated with:

Helps Comply With
