For international maritime trade and high-risk domestic logistics, standard plastic sealsare simply not enough. High-security bolt and barrier seals provide the physical resistance needed to protect high-value automotive cargo from professional theft.
ISO 17712:2013 Standards
To be classified as "High Security," a bolt seal must meet the ISO 17712standard. This involves rigorous testing for tensile, shear, bending, and impact strength.
Anti-Spin Technology
Barrier Seals: The Ultimate Deterrent
Barrier seals take security a step further by physically blocking the locking rods of a container or trailer. They are often made of heavy-duty steel and requires power tools to remove.
Key Features of Barrier Seals
Auto Transport Applications
We utilize these high-security options primarily for two scenarios in our vehicle logistics network:
| Scenario | Seal Recommended | Security Level |
|---|---|---|
| International RORO | ISO Bolt Seal | High |
| Luxury Enclosed | Anti-Spin Bolt | Ultra-High |
| Long-term Storage | Barrier Seal | Maximum |
Expert Tip
Conclusion
When it comes to your vehicle investment, there is no such thing as too much security. Using ISO-compliant bolt and barrier seals ensures that your asset arrives exactly in the same state it was loaded.
FAQs About Auto Transport
ISO 17712:2013 classifies bolt seals as High Security based on rigorous testing for tensile, shear, bending, and impact strength. Only seals that pass all tests earn this classification.
A barrier seal physically blocks the locking rods of a container or trailer and requires power tools to remove. It's used for long-term storage and the highest-security enclosed transport scenarios.
