What is the purpose of a valve lock?

A valve lock, also known as a valve keeper, is a small component that secures the valve spring retainer to the valve stem. It ensures the valve train components stay properly connected, allowing the engine to operate correctly.

What does '7-degree machined bead loc' mean?

This refers to the angle of the taper on the valve lock (7 degrees) and the inclusion of a bead lock feature. The bead lock is a design element that helps the keeper grip the valve stem more securely, preventing it from coming loose under high stress.

Are these valve locks sold individually or as a set?

The product listing is for a single valve lock. You will need to purchase the appropriate quantity for your engine's valve train, typically two per valve.
