MECHANICAL LOCKOUT - CAR SEALS
CAR SEALS
Car seals are a simple user-friendly device used to lock or ‘seal’ a valve in the open or closed position. They prevent unauthorized operation of the valve and are highly tamper evident. Valve operation can only take place by cutting the seal, thereby giving evidence of either tampering, or activity by an authorized worker. We offer two types of Car Seals and other special requirements can be accommodated when required. Both the car seal types meet the ISO 17712:2003 standard and are laser etched with a unique ID number.
ZINC/STAINLESS STEEL
CAR SEALS
These are manufactured with a
zinc body and the internal locking mechanism is made of zinc and steel.
The stainless steel cable has a diameter of 3/32” (2.5mm) and a length of 3’5” (950mm).
These are ideally suited to longer term lockouts and more adverse environments. Sold in packs of 10.
CODE DESCRIPTION
SEAL2 Zinc Stainless Steel Cable Car Seal / Pack of 10
BALL VALVES
For Ball Valves the car seal must wrap around the valve lever and be secured
to fixed anchor points to prevent the movement of the lever. These can be neighbouring pipework, steelwork and any adjacent valves that give a fixed position, to prevent the cable sliding to reduce tension and allowing the valve to be overridden.
Once the cable is pulled through the car seal body, with its non-return action, the excess cable is trimmed and the cable end will slightly flare to prevent any possibility of tampering.
The valve is locked out in either OPEN or CLOSED and standard reusable tags (See below) in our range are used to show the status – often combined with either RED or GREEN bodied seals.

CAR SEAL 6
The Padlock is seal is a self-locking padlock with a Plastic body.

GATE VALVES
For Gate Valves the car seal is passed around the hand wheel and then wrapped around the valve body and under the reduced diameter section of the valve bonnet.
The cable is tensioned through the car seal body and trimmed as below. Neighbouring gate valves can also provide a secure anchorage.
The valve is locked out in either OPEN or CLOSED and standard re-usable tags in our range are used to show the status – often combined with either RED or GREEN bodied seals.
