The Axxiom ShortStop prevents accidental activation of electric deadman systems caused by short-circuits in the control cable. This safety-enhancing option is especially beneficial when blasting at heights, or in applications where the control cable is susceptible to high wear. The ShortStop PnP (Plug-n-play) is simple to install and includes the control module and junction box needed to convert existing electric control systems*. Both single-outlet and 4-outlet bulk pot conversions are available. *Note: Deadman handles are unique to the ShortStop PnP. Conversion kits do not include handles, which are available separately on this page.

- Rugged, compact design
- Typically used in conjunction with the Thompson Valve
- Low pressure drop across valve – increases production
- Multiple sizes available.
- Retrofit systems are available to convert pinch valve / donut valve systems to safer and more efficient Auto Air valve systems - see options below.
