About lockout / tagout

Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) equipment is critical for isolating energy sources during maintenance or repair, preventing unexpected startup and ensuring worker safety. This category includes padlocks, breaker locks, hasps, tags, and LOTO stations. Padlocks are available in keyed-alike, keyed-different, or master-keyed configurations, often featuring non-conductive thermoplastic or aluminum bodies with shackle diameters typically ranging from 6mm to 7mm and shackle clearances from 20mm to 76mm. Breaker locks are designed for specific breaker types, including universal, miniature circuit breaker (MCB), and molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) locks, and are selected based on the breaker's toggle size and type. Hasps, available in steel or aluminum, allow multiple workers to apply individual locks to a single energy isolation point, with jaw diameters ranging from 25mm to 38mm. LOTO tags, compliant with OSHA 1910.147, are typically made from durable PVC or polypropylene, featuring standardized warnings, date, and signature fields. LOTO stations provide centralized storage for equipment, varying in capacity and mounting options.

How to choose

When selecting Lockout/Tagout equipment, first determine the energy isolation points and types (electrical, mechanical, pneumatic). Second, identify the specific devices needing lockout, such as breaker toggles (size and type for breaker locks) or valve handles (diameter for valve lockouts). Third, consider the number of personnel involved and required keying systems for padlocks (keyed-alike for teams, keyed-different for individuals, master-keyed for supervisors). Fourth, evaluate the environmental conditions (e.g., corrosive, explosive) to select appropriate materials like non-conductive thermoplastics or spark-resistant alloys. Finally, ensure all components meet OSHA 1910.147 and any site-specific safety protocols.
