Can You Cut The Wire On A Security Tag
Camila Farah
Spiderwrap tags are designed to know when a wire is cut and will set off its very loud and distinct built in alarm.
If going back to the store is not an option you re just too lazy or can t remember here are some alternatives. You know those things that have 4 wires wrapped around the whole electronic item and they all connect to a round alarm sensor. Always remove them with an s3 handkey. You may be able to cut the wire if you can manage to get a wire cutter between the 2 halves of the tag but these pins are thick and may be difficult to cut.
Do not remove the tag by cutting the wires. Most garment security tags have 1 or more pins inside that secure the cartridge to the body of the tag. 2alarm or spider wrap is very common on high end electronics. Its so you cant open or cut something out of a plastic case.
Another option is to use a dremel tool but either method could damage your garment.
