Innovative, Easy-to-Use Lockout/Tagout Products: The Safety Series(TM) from Master Lock



MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin - While the Lockout/Tagout rules have been in force for 14 years, most of the products serving those rules haven't changed during that time. The Safety Series(TM) from Master Lock offers a full line of innovative and easy-to-use lockout products featuring rotating gate valve lockouts and electrical plug lockouts, adjustable cable lockouts, modular lockout kits, snap-on safety hasps, lockout wall stations, identification tags and labels, and more.

After extensive LO/TO product research, Master Lock developed safety devices that offer a new level of convenience and user-friendliness. Together with Master Lock's broad line of safety lockout padlocks, the new Safety Series product line provides true "one-stop shopping" for safety lockout needs. Safety Series(TM) includes:

o Gate Valve Lockouts - These red valve covers (available in five sizes) rotate outward to close, making them easier to apply in tight spaces. Additionally, the covers return to a half-moon position and nest within each other, saving space in storage and fitting effectively in lockout kits.

o Ball Valve Lockouts - These single piece designs are easy to apply, assuring the best fit for the broad variety of valve handle applications. Two sizes essentially cover it all.

o Snap-on hasps - These hasps fit a wider range of lock-out points and are simple to apply. The hasp remains secured to the lock-out point, until the last padlock has been removed from it. The hasp also has an erasable LO/TO identification label.

o Adjustable Cable Lockout - This single-piece safety hasp and cable allows ease-of-use. Simply feed the cable through the lockout points and then back through the lockout body. Pull the cable end to cinch it tight with the patented locking feature. Ideal for lockline multiple circuit breaker panels or side-by-side gate valve lockouts.

o Modular Lockout Kits - Master Lock offers a variety of lightweight lockout carrying cases with modular, translucent storage trays. Kits include high-use components to satisfy most applications. Personal lockout tagout kits, for individual employee use, come keyed-alike. Group lockout kits come keyed-different to avoid key interchange.

o Circuit Breaker Lockout Devices - No tools are required to apply these devices. A choice of six styles allows the products to fit most circuit breakers. The vibrant red color identifies the covers as lockout devices.

o Circuit Breaker Switch Padlock - The flexible steel cable shackle allows this padlock to properly lock all types of circuit breaker lockout devices, and the breaker box door to be closed tight. Ideal for the tight constraints within circuit breaker shutoff boxes.

Master Lock is also offering signs, tags and an affordable LO/TO training video that clearly describes the requirements of LO/TO in an easy-to-understand manner.
