Rotary security seal

A batch of rotary security seal assemblies comprising:

• a plurality of the rotary security seal assemblies and a locking filament, each of the rotary security seal assemblies including:
• a housing body defining a socket including a top opening, a tab portion at or near the top opening of the socket, and a housing locking filament receiving bore extending at least in part through the housing body and intersecting the socket;
• and a portion of the locking filament including:
• a first end area permanently secured to the housing body by hardened molding material forming the housing body, the first end area extending through at least part of the tab portion outside of the socket;
• and a second end area dimensioned and configured to be received in and extended at least in part through the housing locking filament receiving bore leaving a continuous locking filament loop outside the housing body when so received, wherein the housing bodies are mutually connected together along weakened fracture zones at least in multiple pair sets by the hardened molding material forming the housing bodies and the locking filament extending through and between the housing bodies, and wherein the rotary security seal assemblies are separable from one another such that the second end area of each portion of the locking filament is free to be received in the housing locking filament receiving bore.

A housing and locking filament assembly fora rotary security seal comprising:

• a housing body having a housing top and housing bottom, and formed of hardened molding material;
• a circular open socket in the housing body having a socket axis and being defined by a peripheral socket wall, a top opening disposed at or adjacent the housing top, an upper socket area adjacent to the top opening, and a lower socket area located towards the housing bottom, said upper and lower socket areas concentric with each other and the socket axis, said housing body having a single locking filament receiving housing bore extending through the housing body transversely of and intersecting the socket, with portions of said housing bore intersecting the socket wall at the upper socket area;
• a tab portion connected to the housing body, the tab portion including atop surface defined by the housing top;
• and
• a locking filament having a captured end area terminating at a captured end and a free end area terminating at a free end, said captured end area permanently secured to the housing body and extending at least in part through the tab portion outside of the socket, said locking filament free end area dimensioned so as to be receivable in and extend at least in part though the housing bore leaving a continuous locking filament loop outside the housing bore.
