LOTO Locks FAQs

What are lockout tagout padlocks and tags used for?

Lockout tagout locks and tags are used to isolate energy sources and prevent machines from being started while maintenance or servicing is in progress. They ensure worker safety by making sure equipment stays de-energized until the person who applied the lock and tag removes them.

What is the difference between a lockout and a padlock?

A lockout is the complete procedure of shutting down and securing machinery against accidental start-up, while a padlock is one of the tools used in that process. Specialized lockout locks are designed for this purpose, ensuring only authorized personnel can remove them.

Which type of locks can be used for Lockout Tagout?

Only safety padlocks designed for industrial use should be used for Lockout Tagout. These include durable non-conductive, aluminum, or cable-based designs. Regular security padlocks are not acceptable substitutes for lock out tag out locks.

How many keys should a LOTO lock have?

Each LOTO lock should come with a controlled number of keys, typically one or two per lock. The key should generally only be held by the worker who applied the lock to ensure compliance with safety standards.

What are the color codes for LOTO padlocks?

LOTO padlocks are available in different colors to help identify departments, teams, or individuals. While there is no universal OSHA-mandated system, many workplaces adopt their own color codes for easier management.

Do lockout locks have to be red?

No. While red is the most common color for visibility and recognition, LOTO padlocks can come in multiple colors. Employers often assign colors based on personnel or job roles to prevent confusion.

How to select the right LOTO padlock?

Choosing the right padlock depends on factors such as material (non-conductive, aluminum, or steel), shackle length, and color coding practices. The main priority is that the padlock is specifically designed for safety applications and meets Lockout Tagout requirements.
