A padlock includes an elongated shackle bar, a lock body mounted on a first end portion of the shackle bar, and a lock unit mounted on an opposite second end portion of the shackle bar. The lock body and the lock unit have cross-sections larger than that of the shackle bar. The lock unit includes a tubular lock housing, a key-operable lock core mounted in the lock housing, and a shackle engaging member mounted rotatably in the lock housing. The shackle engaging member has a shackle engaging portion for engaging the second end portion of the shackle bar, and a core engaging portion connected to the shackle engaging portion. The core engaging portion is coupled to the lock core so as to be rotated thereby about an axis of the lock housing between a locking position, in which the shackle engaging portion engages the second end portion of the shackle bar to prevent removal of the shackle bar from the shackle engaging member, and an unlocking position, in which the shackle engaging member is disengaged from the second end portion of the shackle bar to permit removal of the shackle bar from the shackle engaging member.
