TiltWatch 90° – Tilt Indicator

📦 Technical Description – TiltWatch 90° – Tilt Indicator

Single-use indicator for monitoring excessive tilt during transport

TiltWatch 90° is a simple and reliable mechanical indicator designed to detect whether a package has been tilted by more than 80–90° to either side. This single-use device provides clear visual evidence that the shipment has been handled outside the required upright position during transportation or storage.

Once activated, the indicator changes color depending on the direction of the tilt (left or right), providing irreversible proof that the permitted tilt angle has been exceeded. It is primarily used for products that must remain in an upright position during transport, such as machinery, tanks, electrical cabinets, household appliances, and equipment sensitive to tipping.

🧪 Technical Specifications
