But this common keen goes beyond the locks on Caterpillar machines.

Here I have a Caterpillar brand padlock.

It's the model 246-2641 These locks are becoming common enough on construction sites that were even beginning to see knockoffs being marketed like the Caterpillar ignition lock, this padlock can be easily raked open with a relatively low skill attack.

Let's try that right now, using bottom of the key way tension with a wiper insert and this wave rate.

Okay, after just a couple seconds of raking, we popped that right open.

But like the ignition lock, I think the more significant security flaw is the fact that every one of these padlocks is key to like to the caterpillar five p 8500 k, and that could be bought for just a few dollars online.

In fact, I have one of them right on my ring of keys to heavy equipment, and let's try it out in this lock.

There we go.

As you can see, it opened up perfectly.

So the reality is that these locks on Lee provide security against those who are unable to execute the easiest of picking attacks and those who are ignorant of this common cane.

Bottom line.

If something is valuable enough to be secured, then you probably should be using a different padlock.

In any case, that's all I have for you today.
