We recommend our metal band seals or plastic seals.
Metal Band Security Seals
Metal band seals are fixed length seals, which create a 3 inch loop.
Constructed of tinned galvanized steel, these seals are used for trucks, trailers, railcars and a wide range of other applications. Metal band seals are durable in extreme weather conditions.
Our metal band seals feature a unique pre-assigned consecutive serial number and they are embossed with the word "SECURED".
Metal band seals come in two varieties: flat band seals and globe band seals. Flat seals are intended for low security applications where economy and convenience are top priorities. Globe seals have a globe-sheaped locking mechanism, along with a higher break strength (100 lbs) compared to the flat seals (50 lbs), and require a hand tool such as scissors or tin snips for removal.

Plastic Band Seals
Plastic band seals are fixed length seals, which create a 3 inch loop (7 inch circumference). They are affordably priced and intended for low and medium security applications. They offer a lower cost alternative to metal band seals, and are easy to install and remove. They have a low break strength, which allows the seals to removed manually without hand tools. All plastic band seals feature a unique, pre-assigned consecutive serial number.
Common applications for plastic band seals are:
- Truck and trailer doors
- Shipping containers
- Rail car doors
- Fire doors
- Tool box
- Sprinkler systems
- Storage bins
- Transfer hoppers
- Valves
- Utility meters
- Any container with a hasp

Adjustable Plastic Seals
Plastic seals are used to mechanically secure a variety of containers. Typical applications include truck doors, trailer doors, railcar doors, totes, valves, coin bags, inner drum bags, crime scene evidence storage bags, and any container with a hasp or loops.
All of our seals are suitable for indoor or outdoor applications. All seals have unique serial numbers, and some have bar codes.
Adjustable plastic seals are applied by threading the tip of the strap into the eye of the self-locking mechanism, then pulling the strap through to adjust for length and desired slack. Depending on which seal is used removal can be done manually or may require scissors or snips.
Some seals include a tear off tab for ease of seal removal. Tearing off the tab destroys the seal locking mechanism so it cannot be re-used.
Adjustable plastic seals are intended to indicate tampering for low and medium security applications. For higher security projects requiring a barrier seal, please see our selection of cable seals.
