Klein Tools 45200 Lockouts with Interlocking Tabs 1-Inch Diameter

Six. The 45200 lockout body has six locking holes, each coated in red vinyl plastic, so up to six workers can apply their own padlock to the same disconnect and nobody can re-energize it until all six come off. That is the whole point of a group lockout on a shared circuit.

Closed, the hasp has a 1 inch (2.5 cm) inside diameter, so whatever you are locking through, the disconnect's lockout tab, a lever, or a padlock eye, has to pass inside that 1 inch opening. Overall the hasp measures 3.75 inches long, 1 inch wide and 0.75 inch high. On larger panel handles or oversized lugs you need a bigger-jaw hasp instead.

No. The 45200 is the hasp body only. Each worker supplies their own uniquely keyed safety padlock with a shackle of 5/16 inch (8 mm) diameter or less, and you order those separately. Tags are also separate.

It is a two-leaf steel hasp that clamps around a disconnect, switch or panel-box lockout point and then takes multiple padlocks through its holes. The 45200 uses a double interlocking hasp of tempered steel with patented interlocking tabs, meaning the two jaws mesh together when closed rather than just pivoting shut. That resists prying and twisting better than a simple scissor-style hasp whose legs can be sprung apart. Construction is riveted, not welded or screwed.

The 45200 is built as a lockout device for energy-isolation points and Klein states it is to be used only in accordance with OSHA requirements. It is the hardware piece of a lockout/tagout program, not the program itself, so your written procedure, tags and individually keyed padlocks still have to be in place around it.

The hasp leaves are tempered steel with a bright zinc plating for corrosion resistance, and the six-hole locking body is coated in red vinyl plastic, which both insulates the grip area and gives it the red safety color crews expect on a lockout point. The vinyl coating also keeps the body from scratching painted panel faces.

45200 is the single Klein Tools catalog number for this lockout with interlocking tabs, ordered as that one item. For a multi-worker crew you order one per lockout point, not one per worker, since each hasp already takes six padlocks.

3.2 oz (91 g), so it rides in a pouch or clips to a belt loop without noticing it. At 3.75 inches long it is pocket-sized, which matters if every electrician on the crew carries one.
