Complies with ISO 17712 high-security cable seal standards

 

ISO 17712 defines requirements for mechanical security seals used in international container transportation. High security seals are classified as "H" seals and are designed to provide higher resistance against unauthorized removal compared with indicative seals. A high-security cable seal typically includes:

High-Strength Steel Cable

The galvanized steel cable provides flexibility for different container locking points while maintaining the mechanical strength required for high-security applications.
Available cable options include:
3.5mm cable diameter
5.0mm heavy-duty cable options
Customized lengths according to application requirements

Secure Locking Housing

The locking body contains a one-time locking mechanism that prevents reuse after installation.
After removal attempts:
The cable must be physically cut
The original seal cannot be restored
The serial identification remains traceable

Permanent Identification Marking

Each seal can be customized with:
Sequential serial numbers
Company logos
Barcodes
QR codes
This supports container tracking, inventory management, and security inspection procedures.
