A tamper-resistant, identification device employing a myriad of modes of identifying indicia placement, wherein the device comprises a flexible band having opposed first and second ends wherein one of the ends has at least two apertures and the other end has corresponding rows of apertures wherein by placing the device in encircling configuration, so as to obtain alignment and coincidence of selected apertures, the two ends may be securely fastened together by a variety of fastening means. Additionally, the availability of a choice of identification means and fastening means provides an identification device of high, tamper-resistant character especially useful in high security risk applications. Other selective combinations of identification means and fastening means also provides an identification device which is highly versatile having a plurality of applications of end uses.
A plurality of separable identification devices in sheet form, each device comprising a flexible band of sufficient length for encircling engagement of an object to be identified, said flexible band having a first end portion, an intermediate portion and an opposed second end portion, said first end portion having at least two spaced apertures adjacent the terminus thereof, said second end portion having at least two spaced apertures adapted to be placed in aligned coincidence with said at least two spaced apertures in said first end portion when separated from the remainder of said sheet form and said first and second ends being adapted to receive securement means for securely fastening and retaining said ends in an encircling configuration.
The method of identifying which comprises, not necessarily in the order enumerated, the steps of:
