Product Information
Full details
The Peli 1506 TSA Lock is an essential security accessory for frequent travelers and Peli case owners who require a reliable way to safeguard their belongings during transit. This lock offers the primary benefit of being TSA-approved, which ensures that security personnel can access your case with a master key without damaging your hardware. While the rugged construction provides excellent physical security, it is important to remember that as a three-digit combination lock, it should be used for deterring unauthorized access rather than securing high-value items against professional tampering.

FAQs
Will TSA break this lock if they need to inspect my bag?
No, because the lock is TSA-approved, agents have a master key that allows them to unlock and relock the device without causing any damage.
Can I use this lock on any suitcase?
While designed for Peli cases, it can be used on any luggage with zipper pulls or padlock holes that accommodate the shackle diameter.
How many combinations are possible?
As a three-digit lock, there are 1,000 possible combinations (000-999).
Is the lock waterproof?
The lock is made from corrosion-resistant materials, but it is not hermetically sealed or waterproof. It will withstand rain and humidity well.
Can I change my combination after setting it?
Yes, you can reset the combination as many times as you like as long as you know the current working code.
Troubleshooting
I forgot my combination.
Unfortunately, there is no master override for the user-set combination. Always record your code in a secure location or use a code you can easily memorize.
The dials are stiff or hard to rotate.
Check for debris or grit between the dials. Blow out the area with compressed air or use a small brush to remove loose particles.
The shackle will not close.
Ensure the dials are set to the correct code before attempting to push the shackle back into the locked position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set your initial combination, pull up the shackle, rotate it 90 degrees, and push it down. While held down, rotate the dials to your desired numbers. Once set, lift the shackle and return it to the closed position. This lock is compatible with most standard Peli cases that feature built-in padlock holes. For maintenance, keep the shackle and dials clean by wiping them with a dry cloth after dusty or wet environments. If the dials become sticky, a tiny drop of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the mechanism, though this is rarely necessary under normal conditions.
