Lead and Wire Seals

Lead and Wire Seals Description

Lead and wire seals are often used with small diameter openings such as drums, hoppers, and valves. The seals are available with copper, galvanized, tinned, bright annealed, monel, or stainless steel wire. The lead and wire seals come pre-assembled, or the components are available separately. Hand presses are available blank or with custom engraved letter/logo dies.

Lead Press

The lead press is constructed from stainless steel and features longer than standard handles, making crimping easy. It is available with dies to include numbering or lettering for identification.

Plastic Disc Seals

Plastic disc seals are an alternative to traditional lead seals. They are available in various colors and can be customized with company logos, barcodes, and sequential numbering. The plastic discs are designed to be used with the same wire and crimping tools as lead seals.
