presilla de seguridad

Spanish to English Other Transport / Transportation / Shipping IVF protocol (shipments)
I'm translating a protocol for an IVF clinic where they are discussing how sperm is transported in metal chests, closed with a presilla de seguridad:

Comprobar que la ***Presilla de Seguridad*** existe y no ha sido manipulada.

Cortar la ***Presilla*** y abrir el cofre metálico para extraer el sobre con la documentación del envío.

El sistema está formado por una ***presilla numerada***, anclada al sistema de cierre.

It's a numbered tag used to control the batches so there is traceability, and the client has confirmed it looks a little like the one at this link:

How would you translate this? I am considering Security tag OR Security seal but am not sure if there is a more appropriate translation.

Thanks in advance for your help.
Best wishes,
Charlotte

abe(L)solano Jun 14, 2022:
I do think that what they meant was a "precinto" (made of plastic or paper) as you found, since "presillas" are usually metallic so they can't be "cut" (with scissors) as the document says they do.

Prepara tu envío en un embalaje adecuado (sobre o caja) perfectamente cerrado y sellado con precinto de seguridad

security tag

I think you've answered your own question. You've used the word "tag", and that's what the object in the picture is.

agree ezpz : Agree with abel, photo is a precinto not a presilla; but, following the photo, 'security tag' is the best match I think. If needs specifying what kind, prefix with "plastic seal"

could also be "safety tag" but "safety" is key here
