Swedish term

förankringswieren

Swedish to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
Denna ”vault tag” blir obrukbar om förankringswieren klipps.

In a document on cash handling/safe deposit boxes. Is this a typo?

It's about handling a security bag full of cash which has a "vault tag" on it. I think you are correct. The tag probably has a wire that attaches it to the bag. Clip the wire and you cannot open the bag.

I think it is a typo.
It could be "förankringsvajer" = "anchoring cables"
Could you please give more context?

förankringsvajer > anchoring cables

I think it is a typo. It should be förankringsvajer, and I agree with you that it makes sense in the context provided.
