No single solution can be considered as tamper proof.

Before, in the field of tamper evident seals, a tamper evident seal would be used on letters, in order for the receiver to know if the letter has been opened since it was written. This was the first tamper evident seal and it was a wax seal. Some companies continue to use this on their letters and all companies use this when they use a courier as the courier pouch usually has to be destroyed to be opened.

In the area of product packaging and labeling, tamper evident seals are used more and more.

PAS 17712 means Publicly Available Specification. They work hand in hand with ISO

Click Here For Affordable High Security Bolt Seals

     The ISO/PAS 17712 creates new procedures for the classification of mechanical seal types and requirements and also the acceptance and withdrawal of acceptance of mechanical freight container seals.

Click Here for the best prices and selection of Security Seals

     Because of the demand, the new document has been issued as an ISO/PAS for clarification and guidance for security seals on freight containers. This is based on material developed by the World Customs Organization, National Customs Organizations and National Testing Bodies.

     The International Standards Organization permits its technical committees to draft and vote on Publicly Available Specifications as a kind of interim international standard. The PAS 17712  has a limited shelf life but it is faster to approve than a formal standard.

     It was in the year 2003 when the original ISO/PAS 17712 was published. It was developed by a working group of users and manufacturers assembled by the International Standards Organization Technical Committee 104, freight containers.

The ISO/PAS 17712 focuses on the three levels of seal strength, which are indicative, security and high security. The durability of a seal was measured with tests based on impact, shear, bend and tensile strength. The values, measures of strength, then reflected numbers in use by major customs authorities.

The US Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism program and the World Customs Organization’s Framework of standard promote the use of PAS 17712 compliant seals. The seals that are used in International trade improved with this standard. 

Nowadays, it became very obvious that security related practices were as important as the physical strength of a seal, whether it is immature management practices or misuse. Seal manufacturers and distributors are responsible for cargo before it is shipped out.

Two important features of the PAS 17712
* The seals must show their mark whether H for high security, S for security and I for indicative.
* ISO compliant seals can only come from compliant sources and only the manufacturers certified as compliant with the normative annex can place a grade marks on seals.

General Basic Requirements for Seals:
* It must be strong and durable against weather, chemical action and undetectable    tampering.
* It should be easy to apply and seal.
* It must be permanently and uniquely marked and numbered.
* The manufacturer’s logo should be easily noticed.

How does ISO/PAS 17712 affect users?
    
      The PAS 17712 affects users for all types of security seals. Due to enhanced customs security requirements, market focus is concentrated on seals classed as high security (bolt or cable seal).
    
       The suppliers must be sure that their product and procedures conform to the requirements and able to produce the important certificates of compliance on request.
    
      And to the buyers, they need to be vigilant with their purchasing. They must obtain evidence that the chosen product passes both the performance test and manufacturer’s internal procedures to comply with the standard and independently audited to that effect.

     The Customs and Border Protection issued a notice in the Federal Register that all loaded containers shippers and importers entering the United States starting October 15, 2008 are required to be sealed with a seal meeting the PAS 17712 standard.

Standard cable locks are used on rail cars and truck trailer doors as they are flexible and easy to put through the doors and then they are easy to cut at the other end.   They don’t offer as much security as a bolt seal though so you are trading security for simplicity.  You have to always remember if it’s easy for you to cut the security seal then it’s easy for an intruder to cut the seal.   The costs of an open trailer when it arrives at the border would be beyond calculation.

Is that worth it? 

Bolt seals have been used on high value cargo – televisions or cigarettes – as they offer security and they are very hard to tamper with.  Cable locks are more suited to use with trailer doors and rail cars mainly because the containers are traveling further plus the container will be opened by someone on the other end – not the driver of the truck.  .

The cable lock is much easier to cut so it is the security seal of choice for trucks as most drivers have to cut the seal in order to get the truck unloaded when they reach their destination.   There is nothing worse for a driver than to arrive at the unloading dock only to find that the company doesn’t have bolt cutter when there is a bolt attached.  We have heard that border guards feel that carrying a bolt cutter in the truck defeats the purpose of the security seal because if someone breaks in then they can easily use the tool to get into the load.   They would obviously prefer if they tampering occurred with tools not supplied by the trucker.

The cable lock has the adjustable loop and this helps it to be put through the various size of loops that the trailer doors and rail car doors have.   The rail car doors especially have been used so often that only a cable seal can be used as it is almost impossible to get a bolt seal through the doors.  The rail cars take a beating as they travel across North America.

Two sizes of cable locks are C TPAT approved and these are the 3.5mm (1/8 inch) and 5mm (3/16 inch).   The tensile strength of a cable security seal has to be 10 KN to meet the ISO17712 requirements of a high security seal and that is what a 3.5mm cable usually is – between 10 KN and 13 KN – and a 5mm is 16 KN to 20 KN.   A bolt seal will be much higher security  – in the 35 KN range which is great high security but again this comes at price as the bolt seal is hard to remove.

The minimum cable diameter that used to pass the shear test of ISO 17712 and C TPAT was the 5mm cable but technology has now allowed the 3.5mm cable lock and this should be the minimum of cable seal diameter to be qualifying as a high security seal.  The users of the cable lock seals wanted them to be easier to cut and the suppliers listened to their input and the 3.5mm (1/8 inch) cable lock was born.

Cable locks of companies must be C TPAT (Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism) compliant in order to be used as high security seals.
