Product Information
Full details
The KRAFTMANN Brass Padlock 40 mm is an ideal security solution for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to protect storage units, toolboxes, or garden gates. Its primary benefit is its robust construction, combining a solid brass body with a hardened steel shackle to deter physical tampering and cutting attempts. While it provides excellent localized security for everyday items, users should note that as a standard padlock, it is intended for basic deterrent purposes rather than high-security industrial or vault applications.
