BD-F13A Gate Valve Lockout Device – ABS+PA Foldable Donut Lockout & Circular Valve Lockout

Gate Valve Lockout for Handle Wheel Dia 5″–6.5″

BD-F13A

BD-F13A Gate Valve Lockout Device is suitable for DN127–DN165 (5″–6.5″) gate valves, locking the valve in the fully closed position to prevent accidental operation.

Once locked,the gate valve locking device will not jam the valve handwheel, preventing its rotation and locking the valve in the closed position.

handwheel gate valve locking device is made of premium ABS+PA material, offering wear resistance, impact resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance.

Suitable for long-term use in harsh industrial environments.

double semi-circular foldable structure saves storage space and facilitates transportation.

Each gate valve locking device features three padlock holes.

The locking device’s unique center-mounted hole design is compatible with lift-stem valves.

These locking devices can be secured using industrial safety hasp lockout and safety padlocks.

FAQs

1What handwheel sizes does the BD-F13A fit?

It is precision-engineered for gate valve handwheels with a diameter of 127-165mm (5”-6.5”). This size is the industry standard for main pipelines in petrochemical, large-scale manufacturing, and municipal networks. Its "Donut Lockout" design ensures a non-slip, snug fit for medium-to-large valves.

2What are the key internal dimensions and their benefits?

The device features a 63mm center hole and 50mm inner height. These dimensions are specifically tailored to accommodate 127-165mm handwheels, ensuring the lockout sits flush against the valve stem to provide stable energy isolation and prevent accidental operation during LOTO procedures.

3How does the foldable design improve on-site efficiency?

Unlike bulky traditional covers, the BD-F13A features a unique foldable semicircle design. It reduces storage volume by 50%, making it easy for maintenance teams to carry multiple units in a standard toolbox. Its compact folded size (237×198×70mm) is a game-changer for large-scale pipeline inspections.

4Is the BD-F13A compliant with international safety standards?

Yes. Made from high-impact ABS+PA composite, it fully complies with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 and ANSI Z244.1. It meets all EHS audit requirements for durability and substantiality. Compliance certificates are available upon request to simplify your facility’s safety audit.

5How easy is the installation process?

Installation is tool-free and takes under 30 seconds. Simply unfold and snap the two semicircles over the closed handwheel, then secure it with a safety padlock (shackle diameter ≤10mm). This streamlined process minimizes downtime during urgent maintenance.

6What are the physical specifications and ideal applications?

Dimensions: 237mm × 198mm × 70mm. Material: Industrial-grade ABS+PA (heat and chemical resistant). Best For: Main pipeline gate valves in heavy industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, and power plants. It is the go-to solution for 127-165mm (5"-6.5") valve security.
