S&G Combo Padlock

[mister sour]

I have recently purchased these 2 padlocks. They are w/o combinations. There has to be a way to open these through manipulation of exploiting tolerances. I know there aer over 100,000 possible combinations for these, but perhaps there's a cafe cracker amongst us that can give me some tips or point out where to drill a window to see the wheel pack. Thanks all! <---------SOUR

Have you tried the default combo, 0-0-0-0?

[MBI]

Or try the combination 25-0.

[mister sour]

They've been set to a true combination apparently. Factory combo doesn't work. I got these for $3 each so this is going to be a pet-project of mine. Im not going to try every possible combo though. That would take forever!

Check out the cutaways that ElbowMacaroni did for me a while back. They are quite spiffy:

Damn. Those are cool. Thanks for the link!

Looking at the cutaways, these may use the Bras Disks, meaning you could try the (clichéd) stethoscope method?

Ha! Makes me feel like a spy just thinking about it lol. Im going to mess with it alot so all options are on the table. Might even cut one open. Who knows!!!

Or try the combination 25-0.

Yeah that's the default. Not sure where I got 0-0-0-0.

Lol. I still tried it. I believe if it was 0-0-0-0 then you would just turn it 4 times until it hit 0, then it would unlock. But alas, it's going to put up more of a fight than that.

that lock new retails for about $400 and was at one time GSA rated. Do you have any information on manipulation, or have you ever tried? If not your only other option is a scope hole to the best of my knowledge. If I were you I would make one a cutaway then practice manipulation with it and try to open the other. Would be a fun project and could result in some additional talent.

It retailed for $400!!! Oh my Gawd! I like your idea. I think I'll drill a hole in it some where and look at the wheel pack. Then I'll turn it into a cutaway and pactice with it. Im also going to buy an OEM change key. So that would be cool to have especially with a cutaway. Thank you very much everyone! You have given me some great ideas.

The directions say to throw it out if u lose the combo .... Get LBO to make a cutaway!

[bezza1]

you can drill out the 4 steel retaining pins and it should just fall apart
