Value Collection 34-0320-1BLC Safety Lock Wire Stainless

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34-0320-1BLC is a stainless steel safety lock wire used to secure fasteners, fittings, and mechanical assemblies against loosening from vibration or movement. The wire measures 0.032 inches in diameter and the spool contains 362 feet per pound, providing substantial working length for continuous safety-wiring operations. Manufactured from 302 and 304 stainless steel and meeting ASTM A580 standards, this wire delivers corrosion resistance and consistent tensile performance. It is a standard consumable for HVAC technicians, plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors who safety-wire fasteners on rotating equipment, gas train components, and pressure system fittings.

This safety lock wire is suited for residential and commercial mechanical applications where fastener retention is required by code or manufacturer specification. Typical use cases include safety-wiring compressor mounting bolts, gas valve fittings, burner assembly hardware, and other vibration-prone mechanical connections. The 362-foot length per pound makes this size appropriate for high-volume field work or shop inventory. The 0.032-inch diameter is a commonly specified gauge for light-duty and medium-duty safety-wiring tasks on HVAC and plumbing equipment.

Key Features

• 302 and 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• 0.032 inch diameter — a widely specified gauge for mechanical safety-wiring applications
• 362 feet per pound provides extended working length from a single spool
• Meets ASTM A580 standard for drawn stainless steel wire
• Single-piece packaging suitable for field use or bench stock

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose safety lock wire for use on fasteners and fittings in HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical systems where safety-wiring is required by specification or code.

Installation Notes

Safety lock wire is installed by licensed HVAC technicians, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors following equipment manufacturer torque and safety-wiring procedures. Always de-energize equipment and isolate gas or fluid supply before servicing fasteners on pressurized or energized systems. Use appropriate safety-wiring pliers to twist and tension the wire evenly without over-stressing the strand. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for safety-wiring patterns and fastener coverage.
