Valve Handle Lockouts

Stop gas and fluid valve handles from opening and closing during maintenance. Valve lockouts like these help you comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147, which requires handles on pneumatic and hydraulic systems to be locked out during maintenance to prevent injuries.

Valve Stem Lockouts

When your valve has a small handle or no handle to secure a lockout onto, these compact lockouts prevent accidental turns. They make sure your line doesn’t start up and cause injuries while repairs are happening downstream. These lockouts help you comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 requirements for the control of hazardous energy.

Lockout Cable


(Padlock Not Included)

Cable lockouts are quick to install, so they’re ideal for temporary use. Just place the body over your valve stem and secure by wrapping the cable around your pipe. You can continue pulling the cable tighter after locking. Made of plastic-coated steel, the cable is durable and won’t scuff your pipe. If the body doesn’t fit your stem, use the included rubber inserts to change the diameter. These lockouts have holes for up to 4 padlocks, so each person performing repairs can add their own lock to ensure safety. To add even more padlocks, put a hasp in the largest hole.

Electrical and Valve Lockout Sets with Padlocks

Everything you need to lock out your electrical equipment or valves. These sets are your one stop shop for padlocks, hasps, and other lockout devices. Bright red, they alert others to service or repairs. Use them to comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 requirements to prevent injuries caused by accidental startups during maintenance.

1 Each: Cable Lockout—Sets with a cable lockout can be used on panel boxes or handwheels. Thanks to their extra length, they weave between handles or wheels to prevent them from turning.

Plastic Box—Sets in a plastic box are more weather resistant than sets in a carrying case or fanny pack.

Valve Lockout Sets with Padlocks

Everything you need to safely lock out nearly every valve in your facility—these sets include adjustable ball valve and wheel lockouts along with a universal and cable lockout to tackle unusually shaped valves. Eye-catching red padlocks, hasps, and lockouts alert others to the maintenance and signal they should proceed with caution. Use them on compressed air, hydraulic fluid, fuel, and other potentially dangerous lines. These lockouts help you comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 requirements to prevent injuries from valves being accidentally opened during maintenance.

Universal Valve Lockouts


Installed on Handle (Padlock Not Included)	Shown with Additional Blocking Arm (Sold Separately) and Padlock (Not Included)

Installed on Hand Wheel (Padlock Not Included)

Lock out most valves in your facility with just one device. These lockouts clamp onto a variety of valve handwheels and handles. They’re great for large levers, T-handles, wheels with odd shapes and sizes, and other handles that are hard to secure with specialized lockouts. However, they’re slower to install than specialized lockouts—you’ll have to configure different attachments depending on your handle type. These lockouts help you comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 requirements for the control of hazardous energy.

To install, first turn your handle to the off position. After assembling your lockout with all necessary attachments, clamp the body to your handle and turn the lockout wheel to tighten. Add a padlock to prevent removal of the lockout.

Each lockout comes with a blocking arm. Wedge the arm against a pipe or other surface in the direction the handle turns in—this will block its movement. If your handle turns in either direction, attach an additional blocking arm (sold separately).

For valve handles that turn with a squeeze trigger, clamp the lockout body to the handle so it wedges between the handle and the trigger.

For handwheels, clamp the lockout body to the edge of the wheel and run the included cable through the spokes and around a nearby pipe or surface. Then pull the cable through the lockout body for a tight hold.

Nylon Cable—Nylon cable resists corrosion, so it’s good for use in damp areas or on wet or greasy pipes. It also resists many common chemicals. Even as it wears, it won’t scuff surfaces and stays nonconductive.

Vinyl-Coated Metal Cable—Metal cable lasts longer than nylon cable. A vinyl coating protects it from rust and prevents it from scuffing surfaces.

Clamp-On Lockout Cables


Padlock Not Included

More secure than standard lockout cables, these lockouts clamp to a surface nearby, giving you a fixed point to pull the cable tight. Since the body of the lockout doesn’t hang freely like on standard lockout cables, their cable stays taut. After locking out, you can still tighten these cables, but they won’t loosen until you remove all your padlocks and open them up. Clamp them onto anything that fits between their jaws before weaving the cable around the item you’re locking out. They’ll even secure difficult-to-lock devices, such as ball and butterfly valve handles.

With holes for multiple padlocks, each person can add their own as they start a job. Use a hasp in the bottom hole to add more padlocks for larger groups. These cables help you comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 requirements for locking out controls to prevent injuries. The cable is plastic coated, so it doesn’t scuff up surfaces.

Swap between the included steel and rubber jaws to fit your application. The steel jaws are more durable and will last longer. The rubber jaws are a better choice for delicate surfaces because they won’t leave scratches.

Electrical, Valve, and Air Hose Lockout Sets with Padlocks

Lock out nearly any power source or supply line in your facility, from circuit breakers and valve handles to wall switches and air hose. These sets include padlocks, hasps, and other lockouts in a carrying case—just grab them and go. They also include a cable lockout for panel boxes, handwheels, and other devices that require extra length to secure. To alert others to maintenance and repair, the lockouts are red. The lockouts in these sets help you meet OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 requirements to prevent injuries caused by accidental startups.

Wall-Mount Electrical and Valve Lockout Sets with Padlocks

Case

Keep everything you need to lock out most electrical equipment and valves around your facility in a single spot against the wall. These sets have supplies for locking out circuit breakers, valves, plugs, wall switches, and other controls. The supplies are red or yellow to alert people to maintenance. They help you comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147, which requires power sources and supply lines to be locked out to prevent injuries.

Case—Cases have a clear plastic cover to protect lockout items against water and dust while still letting you see inside. They have a larger set of supplies than our cabinets, including a cable lockout for weaving through and around panel boxes, valve wheels, and other hard-to-secure equipment.
