Abstract: A flange junction lock has two identical approximately L-shaped parts, each with a circular nut or bolt cover mounted to a support neck forming one end portion of a shaft having a series of holes along the shaft leading to a free end, the holes being of such size as to accommodate a lock such as a padlock, and a shaft receiver attached to the support neck forming a slot to receive the shaft of the other L-shaped part. The circular covers fit over a nut and bolt head or nut on the opposite sides of the joined flanges while a lock, such as a padlock, secures the shafts together. Each cylindrical cover has a partial end cap which allows the threaded portion of a bolt to extend through and beyond the cylindrical cover while blocking insertion of a socket wrench.
