Questions about choosing the right type
**How do I know which Cable Seals variant fits my application?** Match your choice to your actual risk profile: plastic-bodied for lower-risk internal transfers, aluminum-bodied for standard container or tanker use, and bolt-style for the highest-value or highest-risk shipments. **What is an anti-spin seal, and do I need one?** An anti-spin design resists a specific tampering technique where the locking body is spun to work the cable loose. It matters most for applications like utility metering that have historically seen this specific method attempted. JHAS Industries
Questions about specifications
**What cable diameters are typically available?** Diameters commonly range from around 1.5 mm to 3.5 mm depending on the variant, with thicker diameters offering stronger resistance to cutting for higher-security applications. **Can wire or cable length be customized.** Yes, most manufacturers offer standard lengths starting around 150 mm, with custom lengths available on request for specific latch or closure configurations.
Questions about ordering and quality
**What is a typical minimum order quantity?** MOQs commonly start around 100 units for smaller orders, with meaningful price breaks at higher bulk volumes suited to ongoing operational needs. **What certifications should I check for in a manufacturer?** ISO 9001-2015 for quality management is a strong baseline indicator, along with export certifications like IEC registration for international buyers.

Questions about compliance and traceability
**Do cable seals support chain-of-custody documentation?** Yes, when applied with consistent serial numbering and proper logging, they provide a low-cost, effective way to demonstrate custody control across a shipment’s journey. **Are these seals reusable?** No. All cable seal variants are designed for single use, with removal requiring visible cutting or breakage, which is what delivers the tamper-evident guarantee.
