The MSEC-CL-LOC-BC container bolt seal is the most widely used seal for closing container and lorry doors. An 8 mm steel pin locks into a 20 mm ABS and polystyrene body, for an overall length of 69 mm. Classified grade H under ISO 17712:2013, it meets the high security level defined by the standard. Pin and body carry the same number, so you can identify a load at departure and check it on arrival.

Grade H container bolt seal: what matters

Within the range of security seals for transportation, this bolt seal is the one to choose when a closure calls for the highest security class of the standard.

  • High security class: grade H is the highest of the three levels (I, S and H) defined by ISO 17712:2013.
  • 8 mm pin: a thick steel shank sized for the locking bars of container doors.
  • 20 mm ABS and polystyrene body: a rigid housing that shields the locking mechanism.
  • 69 mm overall length: a format that fits the usual closure points of a container or a lorry.
  • Matching numbers on pin and body: the two parts can be checked against each other at a glance.
  • Five body colours: yellow, green, blue, orange and white, to tell flows or hauliers apart.

ISO 17712 seal: what grade H covers

ISO 17712:2013 sorts mechanical seals into three levels: I (indicative), S (security) and H (high security). The level reflects how the seal withstands attempts at mechanical opening.

This container seal is classified grade H, the most demanding of the three. It is the class to quote when a customer, a haulier or an inspection body asks which seal was fitted: reference MSEC-CL-LOC-BC and the mention ISO 17712:2013 grade H are enough to qualify it.

Our guide which security seal for which use explains the three classes and places this bolt seal next to a cable seal and a metal seal for containers.

Numbered seal: traceability from dispatch to delivery

Each seal carries the same number on the pin and on the body. The two parts are packed separately and come together when the seal is fitted; the matching numbers are checked on arrival.

The number is copied onto the shipping documents: delivery note, bill of lading or consignment note. In a dispute, it ties the seal to one shipment and one load.

The logic is the same as for the numbered security adhesive tape applied to parcels: a unique identifier, recorded at departure and compared on arrival. Custom marking options are available; contact our sales team to check feasibility and conditions.

Fitting and checking the bolt seal in four steps

Grade H bolt seal fitted on the locking bar of a container door
  1. Check before fitting: inspect the body and the pin, then record the number.
  2. Fit: pass the pin through the locking bars, then push it into the body until it locks.
  3. Record: copy the number onto the shipping documents, against the load concerned.
  4. Check on arrival: make sure the seal is intact and that the pin number matches the body and the documents.

An intact body, a matching number and a signed document: that is what the consignee should find when the doors are opened. For locking bars of another diameter, the universal smooth rod security seal completes this model.
