Highlights

For the suitcase that is fuller than it should be

A strap around the case takes load off a zip that is under strain, and holds the two halves together if a latch lets go in the baggage system. The lock in the buckle means it cannot simply be unclipped. The side benefit is that you spot your bag on the carousel immediately.

Product description

About this product

This is the accessory that earns its place when a case is packed past sensible. A strap right around the shell takes load off the zip line, and if a latch or a zip does let go in the baggage system it holds the two halves together long enough to reach you. Cases do burst open; it is not a rare event.
The buckle has a three-digit combination lock in it, so the strap cannot just be unclipped and lifted off. That is the difference between this and the plain coloured straps sold as identification only.
The practical benefit most people notice first is finding the bag. Black roller cases are indistinguishable at twenty paces, and a bright strap ends the business of hauling the wrong one off the belt.
Be realistic about what it secures: it holds a case shut and deters a casual hand. It is not theft-proof, and neither is any strap. It also carries a TSA keyway, which is relevant only if the bag is screened in the United States – we have not verified the licence mark ourselves, so we describe the keyway rather than claim approval.

Every tsa approved combination lock is checked in store before it leaves us, and our staff use the same kit in the field, so you get an honest answer on fit and sizing rather than a sales pitch.

Questions

Good to know

Do you deliver in Dar es Salaam?

Yes. We deliver across Dar es Salaam and ship countrywide to Arusha, Mwanza, Dodoma, Mbeya, Zanzibar and the rest of Tanzania.

So what is a luggage lock really for?

Deterrence and tamper evidence, not security. Any zipped soft bag can be opened in seconds with a ballpoint pen and re-zipped, lock or no lock. What a lock does is stop a casual hand in a baggage hall, and show you on arrival that someone has been in. Nothing you would genuinely miss should be in checked luggage at all.

Do I need a TSA lock flying out of Dar es Salaam?

Only if your bag will be screened in the United States. TSA is a US agency. Flying Dar to Dubai, Doha, Istanbul, Nairobi, Addis, Mumbai, London or Amsterdam, a TSA keyway does nothing for you - screeners in those countries have no TSA master key and no obligation to use one. It matters if you are connecting onward to the US, or if you want one lock that covers every trip.

What does TSA-approved actually mean?

It means the lock carries a keyway that US Transportation Security Administration screeners hold a master key for, so they can open and reclose your bag instead of cutting the lock off. Genuine ones are licensed by Travel Sentry and carry a red diamond mark, or by Safe Skies and carry a torch mark. If a lock has no mark, nobody can verify the licence - including us.

What if I forget the combination?

There is no reset service and no override for you - only the TSA keyway, which you do not hold a key to. The lock would have to be cut off. Set a code you will actually remember, write it somewhere that is not in the bag, and test it twice before you check the bag in.

How do I set the combination?

Combination luggage locks are normally set open, with a small button or lever held while you turn the dials to your chosen code. The exact sequence varies by lock, so follow the slip in the packet. Set it before you pack, not at the airport.

Will it corrode on the coast?

Salt air along the Dar and Zanzibar coastline attacks the shackle and the dials faster than anything inland. Rinse it in fresh water after a beach trip, dry it, and put a drop of light oil on the shackle occasionally. A lock that has seized on its dials is no more use than one that has been cut off.
