The Cam-set is designed to industry standards including ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessels code. We add a safety factor which results in a sturdy blinding mechanism that is ideal in challenging work environment such as a steel mill. 100% positive isolation ensures that maintenance staff are protected during essential repairs.
