TRADESAFE gate valve lock is designed for maintenance teams, safety managers, utility crews, and authorized employees who need to secure medium-to-large gate valve handwheels during service, repair, inspection, and shutdown procedures. This model fits compatible valve handles from 5" to 6-1/2" in diameter and accommodates valve stems up to 2-7/16" in diameter, providing dedicated coverage for industrial water, gas, propane, utility, processing, and compatible fuel-system applications.
The high-visibility red clamshell housing surrounds the operating handle and includes three integrated lock holes for individual or multi-worker lockout procedures. Industrial-strength ABS construction provides impact, chemical, and temperature resistance, while the overlapping cover, detachable hinge, and removable center knockout support stable placement, efficient storage, and compatibility with qualifying OS&Y or rising-stem gate valves. Padlocks are not included.
Gate Valve Lock for 5" to 6-1/2" Valve Handles
This gate valve lock provides enclosed coverage for handwheels that are too large for compact models but do not require an oversized lockout device. Once closed around a compatible handle and secured with the required LOTO padlock or padlocks, the housing restricts access to the operating point and helps prevent unauthorized valve movement while maintenance is underway.

Lockout Gate Valve Handles with Durable ABS Coverage
To lockout gate valve handles in demanding work environments, the device uses an industrial-strength ABS housing that encloses the handwheel without adding unnecessary complexity to installation. Its nonconductive construction resists impact and common chemical exposure while maintaining its shape across a broad operating temperature range.
Material and visibility features include:
- Impact-resistant ABS construction
- Chemical-resistant housing
- Nonconductive material
- Operating temperature range: -51°F to 300°F
- Durable 1/8" body thickness
- High-visibility red finish
- Printed “DANGER – Locked Out – Do Not Remove” warning label
- Reinforced housing for repeated workplace use
- Detachable hinged construction for compact stacking and storage
The durable body is suitable for manufacturing facilities, utilities, processing plants, maintenance departments, and outdoor service areas where valve lockout equipment may encounter temperature changes, regular handling, or exposure to demanding jobsite conditions. Its bright finish and warning graphics also help nearby personnel recognize the isolated valve.
Gate Valve Lockout Device with Three Padlock Positions
The gate valve lockout device opens at the hinge, closes around the compatible handwheel, and is secured through the integrated lock holes. Its overlapping cover sections maintain fuller coverage around the operating handle, helping reduce shifting, loosening, and partial exposure after the device has been installed.
Installation and security features include:
- Hinged clamshell design for straightforward placement
- Overlapping cover sections for stable handwheel coverage
- Removable center knockout for qualifying rising-stem configurations
- Three integrated padlock positions
- Supports individual and multi-worker lockout applications
- Accepts padlock shackles up to 5/16" in diameter
- Enclosed design that restricts access to the valve handle
- Detachable hinge for easier stacking between uses
- Lockout padlocks sold separately
The three-lock configuration allows several authorized employees to attach separate personal padlocks when individual control of the same isolation point is required. Removing the center section also extends compatibility to qualifying OS&Y and rising-stem gate valves when the handle and stem remain within the specified dimensional limits.
Gate Valve LOTO for Industrial and Utility Applications
This gate valve LOTO device is intended for compatible shutoff points used in industrial water systems, gas lines, propane equipment, utility infrastructure, processing installations, and selected forklift fuel systems. Its three padlock positions support both routine single-worker maintenance and coordinated tasks involving multiple authorized employees.
Correct sizing and valve identification remain essential. Confirm that the handwheel measures between 5" and 6-1/2", that the stem does not exceed 2-7/16", and that the isolation point uses a compatible gate-valve design before installation; select another gate valve size or a dedicated ball or butterfly valve lockout when these requirements are not met.
Give your team dedicated coverage for 5" to 6-1/2" gate valve isolation points. Pair the device with the personal LOTO padlocks required by your facility’s hazardous energy control procedures. Choose the TRADESAFE gate valve lock for durable construction, secure handle coverage, and clear warning communication.
OSHA-Compliant Gate Valve Lockout Device
Compliance with the OSHA Standard for The Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout/Tagout) (29 CFR 1910.147) is vital to the safety of every employee on site. That’s why we make sure that all of our products help workplaces remain OSHA-compliant.
TRADESAFE products are made with the requirements for lockout tagout devices in mind. These are the requirements pursuant to OSHA Standard 1910.147:
- Durable: Devices must be able to withstand exposure to the environment in which they will be used for as long as necessary.
- Standardized: Devices used in a facility must be standardized according to color, shape, or size.
- Substantial: Devices must be difficult to remove without the use of excessive force or techniques that are not typically used to remove the devices. They should also be able to prevent accidental removal.
- Identifiable: Devices must be able to identify the employee who applied them.
- Exclusive for Safety: Devices must not be used for any purpose other than controlling energy.
