A cable lockout device is a LOTO device made up of a body and a flexible cable attached to it. The cable is passed through valve handles, circuit breaker holes or lid handles, tensioned so that no slack remains, and secured by fitting a safety padlock to the body. In this way one or more energy isolation points are locked out at the same time with a single device.
A cable lockout is the most flexible solution at points with no dedicated lock, irregular shapes or points very close together. For example, you can thread several valves on a manifold onto a single cable and secure them all at once. A cable lockout is a versatile piece of equipment recommended for every LOTO bag as a complement to dedicated locks.
Sofilx LOTO supplies a wide range of cable lockouts for different lengths, environments and team sizes, with adjustable, multi-purpose, economy, retractable, micro and stainless steel cable models.
Types of Cable Lockout Equipment
Adjustable cable lockouts
The cable is tensioned to the required length and fixed in the body; it is the most frequently chosen type for valve groups and panel doors.
Multi-purpose cable lockouts
Thanks to the many lock holes in the body, several workers can fit their own lock to the same device.
Stainless steel cable models
Provides long-lasting use against corrosion in humid, chemical-contact and outdoor conditions.
Retractable cable lockout
When not in use, the cable is wound inside the body; it is carried easily without tangling.
Micro and universal models
The micro model is used in tight spaces and small holes, while the universal model with PVC-coated steel cable is used at different points.
Economy cable lockout
A budget-friendly option for basic lockout needs and distribution to many points.

- Cable length: Measure between the two farthest points to be connected and add an allowance for threading and tensioning.
- Cable material: For electrical applications prefer PVC-coated cable; in damp or chemical environments prefer stainless steel cable.
- Number of users: For team work, prefer models with a multi-hole body or add an extra lockout hasp.
- Cable diameter: If the holes and handles the cable will pass through are small, choose thin-cable models such as the micro.
- Portability: For sets that will be carried often in the field, retractable models with the cable wound into the body keep things tidy.
- Tagging: Attach a LOTO warning tag to each cable lockout showing who locked it out and why.
