Ingco Iron Padlock 38mm with Brass Cylinder and 3 Keys (DIPL0401)

Our review

This is a small-to-mid sized padlock from Ingco, built around a 38mm iron body with a brass lock cylinder and supplied with three iron keys. At 146g it is light enough to hang on a gate, toolbox, locker or store room door without dragging, and the waterproof rubber cover is the detail worth noting if the lock will sit outside in rain or dust. It suits someone who wants a simple keyed padlock for a shed, gate or cabinet rather than high-security use. Before buying, check the shackle diameter and the hasp or chain you plan to thread it through, since a 38mm body only works if the fitting is small enough. Compare it with brass-bodied padlocks if rust resistance matters most, and with larger sizes if you need a longer shackle. Keys are the only access method, so keep a spare somewhere sensible.
