If that lock was expensive I would send it back. It is heavily glorified zip tie with a dinky little combo on there. It wouldn't be hard to open. If a low security lock is a must for you then I would look at the Engineered in Germany ABUS Locks, they are cheap and low security but at least have some proper designing granted the production isn't as good as their Made in Germany stuff but is certainly better than a zip tie with a piece of old briefcase stuck on it.
