<p>A security device (10) for preventing or indicating the tampering with a joint (22) in a supply pipe, e.g. to a gas meter, comprises two or more members (11, 12) which fit together around the joint (22). The members (11, 12) have mutually interdigitating parts (13) through which a blind bore (17) is provided and which houses a glass phial (24) containing a dye. Displacement of the members (11, 12) from the assembled configuration breaks the phial (24), thereby releasing the dye which stains the members (11,12) so that the tampering is readily detectable.</p> |
