The Master Lock Company has unveiled its new family of Grip Tight Plus Circuit Breaker Lockout devices, designed to take the guesswork out of circuit breaker lockout. Available now in S3821, S3822 and S3823 models, the family of Grip Tight Plus circuit breaker devices allow employees to reliably lockout an even greater range of circuit breaker applications, including on multi-pole breakers, tie-bar toggle breakers and 480 V molded case or oversized breakers.

Compatible with a wide variety of circuit breaker handle shapes and sizes, the devices have lightweight, one-piece designs and do not require tools for installation. Additionally, each lockout device is equipped with a large thumbscrew with knurled texture, allowing safety professionals to easily grip and tighten the thumbscrew for a secure lockout. A screwdriver slot is also available to further increase the grip on the circuit breaker if desired.

“The Master Lock Company takes pride in developing innovative and reliable safety products that help businesses of all sizes achieve OSHA compliance and provide a safer work environment for employees,” said John Teece, director of safety product marketing at The Master Lock Company. “The new Grip Tight Plus Circuit Breaker Lockout devices are the latest example of our unmatched ability to provide end-to-end safety solutions, from industry-leading safety padlocks and innovative lockout products to comprehensive on-site lockout consulting, procedure and lockout management system development.”
