The shackle is the part that gets cut, so it is the part to read · review
The largest body and the biggest digits on this shelf — and a claim that the body is uncuttable, which is neither true nor the point.
The conclusion The biggest body and the biggest digits on this shelf, with a sealed core against grit — and those are the right features for a shared gate opened with cold hands, because a lock that is awkward to use gets left unlocked. The specification is the problem: the shackle is not described at all, no material, no diameter, no hardening, on a shelf whose whole premise is that the shackle is what gets cut. And "uncuttable" is both untrue and aimed at the wrong part.
THE SHACKLE IS NOT DESCRIBED. No material. No diameter. No hardening. No shrouding.
Twice unhelpful.
This shelf’s introduction opens on the premise: every padlock is attacked at the shackle, because the shackle is the slim exposed loop a cutter can reach.
The body is a solid block. Nobody bothers with it.
So describing a 55 mm (2.17 in) body as uncuttable is a claim that is not true of any metal given a grinder, about a part that was never the target.
What this page owes a reader is the shackle material and diameter. Neither appears.
And not about security at all.
The commonest reason a combination lock gets replaced is that nobody can work it.
Small stiff wheels, with gloves, in the dark, in the rain, with older eyes. A gate lock that is annoying to open gets left unlocked, which defeats it entirely.
Fifty-five millimeters gives room for large wheels and large numerals. The sealed core keeps them from stiffening with grit.
For a shared gate, that is the purchase.
Which publishes more.
That one: 40 mm (1.57 in), a round shielded design stated to minimize shackle exposure, and a stated cut strength up to 4000 lb, at twelve dollars fifty-nine.
This one: 55 mm (2.17 in), big digits, a sealed core, nine dollars forty-five in a pair, and silence about the shackle.
Locker: the shielded one. Gate opened daily with cold hands: this one.
On sale at around $19 on the American Amazon store at the time of checking.

| Body | 55 mm (2.2 in) — stated, and the largest body on this shelf, where the others run 40 to 80 mm (1.57 to 3.15 in) with most at 40. A bigger body means bigger dials and more metal around the mechanism |
|---|---|
| Cylinder | None: four big resettable digits on smooth large wheels, with a code you set. Big digits are the practical argument — a combination read and turned with cold or wet hands is where a small-dialed lock fails |
| Weather | A sealed core stated to shrug off rain, dust, snow and frost and stay smooth all year outdoors. The seal is what matters on a combination lock, because the failure mode is a wheel pack that stiffens with grit rather than a corroded shackle |
| Shackle | NOT DESCRIBED. No material, no diameter, no length and no hardening claim appears anywhere on the page. This shelf's introduction says every padlock is attacked at the shackle and that the specifications that matter describe it; this listing describes the body instead |
| Claim | "Strong Uncuttable 55mm (2.17 in) Body", stated. No padlock is uncuttable, and the claim is about the BODY — which is not the part that gets cut. The entire premise of this shelf is that the attack lands on the shackle, and the shackle is the one thing this page does not mention |
| Shrouding | Not published. No closed shackle and no shield |
| Supplied | Two padlocks, stated, at eighteen dollars eighty-nine — about nine dollars forty-five each |
| Keys | Not applicable. A resettable code means nothing to lose and nothing to copy, and a forgotten code means a cut-off lock |
| Stated for | Gates, fences, sheds, school lockers, toolboxes, storage and travel bags |

No, and the claim is pointed at the wrong part. This shelf's introduction opens on the premise that every padlock is attacked at the shackle, because the shackle is the slim exposed loop a cutter can reach — the body is a solid block nobody bothers with. Describing a 55 mm (2.17 in) body as uncuttable is therefore doubly unhelpful: it is not true of any metal given a grinder, and the body was never the target. What a reader needs from this page is the shackle material and diameter, and neither appears.
Because the commonest reason a combination lock gets replaced is that nobody can work it. A four-digit code on small, stiff wheels is awkward with gloves, in the dark, in the rain and with older eyes — and a gate lock that is annoying to open gets left unlocked, which defeats it entirely. A 55 mm (2.17 in) body gives room for large wheels and large numerals, and SEPOX pairs that with a sealed core so the wheels do not stiffen with grit. For a shared gate, that is a real argument and it is not about security.
The other combination lock on this shelf, which publishes more. That one is 40 mm (1.57 in) with a round shielded design stated to minimize shackle exposure and a stated shackle cut strength up to 4000 pounds, at twelve dollars fifty-nine. This one is 55 mm (2.17 in) with big digits and a sealed core, at nine dollars forty-five a lock in a pair, and says nothing about its shackle. For a locker, the shielded one; for a gate opened daily with cold hands, this one, and read the uncuttable claim as copywriting.

| Model | Price | Body | Cylinder | Weather | Shrouding |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SEPOX Large outdoor combination padlock, 2.2 in, 4 big resettable digits, 2-pack | $19 | 55 mm (2.2 in) — stated, and the largest body on this shelf, where the others run 40 to 80 mm (1.57 to 3.15 in) with most at 40. A bigger body means bigger dials and more metal around the mechanism | None: four big resettable digits on smooth large wheels, with a code you set. Big digits are the practical argument — a combination read and turned with cold or wet hands is where a small-dialed lock fails | A sealed core stated to shrug off rain, dust, snow and frost and stay smooth all year outdoors. The seal is what matters on a combination lock, because the failure mode is a wheel pack that stiffens with grit rather than a corroded shackle | Not published. No closed shackle and no shield |
| Master Lock 3TRILF laminated steel padlock, 7 mm shackle, keyed-alike 3-pack | $21 | 1-9/16 in (40 mm) wide laminated steel — stacked and riveted plates rather than a casting, which resists a hammer better than die-cast zinc | A 4-pin cylinder for pick resistance, with dual ball bearing locking for pry resistance — stated. Four pins is the entry-level count; six is common on security-rated locks | Stated for indoor and outdoor use, with a laminated steel body. Laminated steel is plated, and this shelf's introduction warns that a plated steel body on a weather-facing gate will seize by spring. The brass lock on this shelf is the one that does not | NONE, and the opposite is advertised: an extended shackle for application flexibility, stated as a benefit. This shelf's introduction says how much of the shackle is exposed to a bolt cutter is one of three things that matter and calls a closed shackle the single biggest step up in this family. A 38 mm (1.50 in) extended shackle is the most exposed on this shelf |
| Mindy 40 mm shrouded hardened keyed padlock, 3 keys | $14 | 40 mm (1.57 in), stated in the title. No material and no construction — not laminated, not die-cast, not brass | Not published. No pin count, no pick resistance claim, no mechanism | Stated rust and corrosion proof, ideal for indoor and outdoor use, with no material or coating named. This shelf's introduction asks for brass or stainless rather than plated steel, and this page names neither | Shrouded, stated in the title. It is one of three shielded designs on this shelf and this shelf's introduction calls a closed-shackle design the single biggest step up available in this family — which makes it the most valuable word on this page, and the only structural claim on it |
| NBYT A06 5-letter word combination lock with 8 mm cable, 30 in long, 14 in locking span | $24 | Zinc alloy, stated. Die-cast zinc does not rust and is softer than steel | None: a resettable five-LETTER word combination, which is the only letter code on this shelf. Five letters allows a real word, which is why it is here — a memorable code is a code nobody writes on the gatepost | Not stated. The listing names outdoor uses — garden gates, motorcycles — and publishes no IP rating, no coating and no corrosion claim | Not applicable, and worth stating: there is no body to shroud a cable. The whole 14 in span is reachable |

Cold or wet hands on a gate, where big wheels and a sealed core matter more than the paperwork
