PRODUCT OVERVIEW
MC-PL04 overview
Quick answer
MC-PL04 is a single-use, all-plastic padlock seal with a broad, flat body – 38.4 mm wide and 31.2 mm high – that gives plenty of room for a logo and serial number. The shackle has a serrated outer edge and snaps into the body at a fixed loop size. It is pure polypropylene and recyclable. Catalogue tensile is about 3 kgf. MOQ is 1,000 pieces, packed 1,000 per carton.
How it locks
Push the shackle hook into the body until it clicks. The seal must be broken or cut to open.
Not suitable when
- the closure needs a steel shackle – see MC-PL02 or MC-PL03;
- you need tool-free easy opening – see MC-PL01;
- the closure needs more than about 3 kgf of holding force.
Compared with similar models
- MC-PL05 – all-plastic padlock seal with a 25 × 15 mm marking area, about 5 kgf.
- MC-PL07 – all-plastic padlock seal with a 3.9 mm angular shackle, about 3 kgf.
