Meterguard's barrel lock is ideally suited for flush mount applications. The short tapered head cannot be gripped with pliers and will not break off. Meterguard'sunique barrel lock generates a clamping force of over 60 lbs and produces a tight, tamper proof installation when used on meter boxes, housings, valves or rings.
Meterguard's new high thrust barrel lock and new adjustable end cap are a perfect combination for use on valves. The unique internal geometry allows the new end cap to be infinitely adjusted and tightened against a valve's ears before locking the barrel lock in place.
