Valve & Curb Key

REED Valve and Curb Keys are built for strength and durability. All of REED’s water meter key assemblies will support a maximum torque of 200 foot-pounds. Upper shafts of REED water main keys are made from heavy-gauge, mechanical steel tubing plus curb stop key ends are machined from solid steel for strength. As a safety feature, keys bend before breaking to indicate overload.

Made in USA, REED valve and curb keys also feature strong welds at critical points. Valve keys and curb keys have a telescoping design.
