  • Publication number: 20070069530
    Abstract: A security fastening device is disclosed which is similar to a cable tie but which cannot be removed without destroying the device. A locking head with locking mechanism is enclosed and protected by a shroud that prevents access to the mechanism to defeat it. The head has an entrance opening and the shroud has an exit opening through which an elongated member with locking projections of the fastening device passes and the projections cooperate with the locking mechanism to lock the fastening device. The projections all have a diameter that is only slightly smaller than the diameter of the entrance opening. When the elongated member has been inserted through the locking mechanism and shroud a locking projection sits in each of the entrance and exit openings. Due to the snug fit nothing can be inserted through the entrance opening to defeat the locking mechanism and open the fastening device. A variation of the security fastening device has an insert that is mounted inside the shroud from the exit opening.
