Value Collection 34-0410-1BLC Safety Lock Wire 221 Ft

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34-0410-1BLC is a stainless steel safety lock wire used to secure fasteners, fittings, and components against vibration-induced loosening. Manufactured from 302/304 stainless steel and meeting ASTM A580 standards, this wire measures 0.041 inches in diameter and provides 221 feet per pound of length. Licensed technicians and trade professionals in HVAC, plumbing, aerospace, and industrial maintenance rely on safety lock wire to keep critical fasteners from backing out under thermal cycling and mechanical vibration. Each package contains 1 pound of wire.

Safety lock wire at this diameter is well suited for medium-duty fastener applications where a balance of strength and flexibility is required. It is commonly used on service panels, access covers, refrigeration compressor fittings, gas appliance components, and mechanical equipment subject to vibration. The 302/304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, outdoor, and chemically active environments, making it appropriate for both indoor mechanical rooms and exposed outdoor installations.

Key Features

• 302/304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• 0.041 inch diameter offers a balance of tensile strength and ease of twisting by hand or with lock wire pliers
• 221 feet of wire per pound allows extended use on large jobs or multiple service calls
• Meets ASTM A580 drawn wire standards for consistent mechanical properties
• Single-package quantity suitable for stocking individual service kits or tool bags

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose safety lock wire for use with standard fasteners and fittings across HVAC, refrigeration, plumbing, and industrial mechanical applications where ASTM A580 compliant stainless steel wire is specified.

Installation Notes

Safety lock wire installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or mechanical contractors as part of equipment service or commissioning. Always de-energize and depressurize the system before accessing fasteners that require lock wiring. Use proper lock wire pliers to achieve consistent twist pitch and avoid over-stressing the wire. Cut ends should be bent back to prevent contact injuries during future service access.
