waterproof seal
Watertight closure mechanism
A waterproof seal is a barrier that prevents water from passing through a joint, closure, or connection.
The term applies to rubber gaskets around doors and windows, O-rings in plumbing, and protective coatings on containers: Check the waterproof seal on your watch before swimming.
The phrase also describes the tight closure of packaging: The waterproof seal keeps moisture out of the bag.
