This is a sign that the links have been through-hardened, with no ductility in the core. There’s absolutely no way this chain can be cut with a near-silent bolt-cropped attack, even with our 42” tool.Ī sledge-hammer will break this chain, two good solid hits in our testing causing it to shatter. When coiled up, the chain covers a 32cm diameter. If you’re using a ground anchor, check that it’s big enough to accept a 22mm chain few are.

And it has achieved the highest security CEN Grade 6 rating.Įach cylinder offers 250,000 key differs, giving a combined total of 625million differs. This dual cylinder closed shackle padlock with 100mm wide solid steel lock body is the first ever to achieve the highest Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) SR4 standard (not as a set). Situations that are high risk, such as perimeter gates, warehouses, outbuildings, shipping containers, heavy machinery, commercial vehicles and for high value property including motorcycle security at home. It is designed for locations where maximum security is a priority. Our super heavy-duty SS100CS is universally respected as the world’s strongest production padlock.
