With cable seals, you
get a high strength sealer when the wire seal and plastic seal can get cut open
easily or if it cannot withstand the environment application lie extreme temperatures
and physical impact. An adjustable Cable Seal can prevent and deter fast and easy opening by people
that maliciously tamper with a seal. Cutting a cable seal needs a lot of
strength and you cannot open these with common tools as one can do in the case
of plastic or wire seals.
When you have to
choose the right wire seal, it is important o get the right information about
the seals from experts. This includes everything you require knowing about the
appropriate length, size and the type of cable seal most suitable for your
application.
Keep in mind that it
is easier to bend thinner seals and longer cables. You can fit these in places
where other seals can't reach. One can get a strong barrier for cutting or
tampering, but there is also a need for a large amount of space for bending and
locking these as these are strong and stiff.
Applications
Cable seals are used
in different applications like tanks and tank truck valves, truck and container
doors, hoppers, control panel and meter boxes. In general, a cable seal is used for
tagging vehicles, machinery, high-value assets and storage containers. Cables
seals are the right kind of alternatives for locks and secure closures which
are not opened frequently or when the user does not want to monitor access to
the keys.
The Right Material Choice
The aluminium body seals are a highly popular
choice due to their resistance to corrosion and the capability for adding
markings by lasers like barcodes and logotypes. Moreover, steel seals are
highly popular s these have a stronger body and are highly durable which is
stamped physically onto the steel. The stamped markings are limited to simple
logotypes, numbers or letters. Various options are available for the lengths or
the sizes of the cable seals can range from 6-72 inches. The cable diameters
range between 1.5 mm and 4 mm.
For protecting
international shipments, it is important to choose a seal meeting the current
ISO standards. Reputable companies offer several types of cable seals complying
with ISO 17712 and C-TPAT standards for high-quality seals.
With all kinds of
seals, the right handling, control and good record keeping, as well as
inspection, are some of the best practices. If you want to know more about a Cable Seal and are
