The red diamond clearly shows the TSA that they have approved this lock and can open it with a special key if they need to. If the lock is opened, the indicator changes to red so you know.
You might know that you cannot lock your luggage with any random lock anymore due to the new security regulations at the airports. The only locks that some airways will allow a luggage to have are Transportation Security Administration (TSA) approved locks (other locks might have to be broken by TSA should your luggage need to be hand searched).
This is a simple combination
lock that securely keeps your suitcase closed, deters casual
pilfering, and also shows you if the lock has been opened by a
TSA key (the INDICATOR on it will pop up if opened by a TSA master) key. These locks might help you prove a claim for
damaged/stolen items if such a misfortune occurs.
What You Get - Red ring will appear if the TSA searches your bag.
- Extra long shackle.
- For luggage, sports bags, backpacks and duffels.
- Size: 2.25" (58 mm)
Each lock is blister
packaged on a display card. Inside the pack is the lock and a
sheet of instructions.
The instructions tell you
how to change the factory preset combination to any number of
your choice, and how to reset the red color back to the original if the
TSA have opened the lock and triggered the red warning
indicator.
Only you can change the red
warning indicator back to green. The TSA can't do this, and
neither could a petty thief (unless he knew your secret
combination). Available in 2 bright colors that will stand out (can help you identify your luggage among many others, too!)
