Brady Debuts Collapsible Gate Valve Lockout Devices

November 25, 2016 

Brady’s durable and versatile lockout covering devices are available in three sizes to secure valves with 3- to 18-inch diameter handles. The cover design provides easy handling and lockout on a wide range of gate valves.

“This new collapsible gate valve design provides secure lockout for a wider range of valves, with the use of fewer devices,” says Tom Campbell, Global Product Manager, Lockout Tagout Solutions for Brady. “Until now, there hasn’t been a gate valve lockout cover solution for handles larger than 12 inches. These covers easily rotate around valve handles to the fully engaged position, while also folding into smaller sizes for easy storage on maintenance carts and in lockout kits.”

Brady’s collapsible gate valve lockouts are available in three sizes, to secure 3”-7”, 7”-13” and 13”-18” diameter valve handles. The rugged injection-moulded styrene construction withstands harsh outdoor conditions for added durability, while the patent-pending design includes knock-out centres to accommodate outside screw and yoke (OS&Y) valves.
