Abstract

A seal (102) is suitable for use with a sealable product which includes a fastener and a sealing device for securing said fastener. Said sealing device (102) comprises a locking housing having a lock opening with shoulders at each side thereof, a tab cover connected to the fastener and engageable with the locking housing. The seal (102) comprises: a head (104), and a pair of parallel inner legs (106), separated by a channel (124). Each inner leg (106) includes a first, wide portion (112) adjacent said head and narrowing on an outer edge distal said channel to form a second (126), narrow portion. An outer leg extends from an end the inner leg, distal said first wide portion, the outer leg extends away from said channel and towards said first wide portion. The outer leg is resiliently deformable towards said narrow portion of said inner leg, and includes at an end proximal to, and extending outside of a width of, said wide portion of said inner leg, a surface, positioned for latching engagement behind a respective said shoulder. The seal (102) is characterised in that said first wide portion of each inner leg includes a region of weakness (119) which is selectively fracturable and in that each of said pair of inner legs is resiliently deformable into said channel.
