COMP Cams Super Valve Locks 5/16in W/O R

COMP Cams is a well-known name in performance valvetrain components, and these Super Valve Locks are a great example of their focus on race applications. If you're building or rebuilding an engine for competition, you know how critical every part is. These locks are designed with a wider 10-degree angle, which helps to spread out the increasing spring loads over the retainer more effectively than the typical 7-degree locks you might find elsewhere. This improved load distribution can make a notable difference in the reliability of your valvetrain under demanding conditions.

This set includes 16 single-groove locks, each measuring .310 inches and designed without a lash cap recess. They are made from steel, offering a solid foundation for your valve springs and retainers. The wider angle is the key feature here, providing a more robust interface between the lock and the retainer, which is essential when dealing with higher spring pressures common in race engines.
