corte hermético
Aunque no estoy del todo disconforme con la propuesta de la compañera, me parece que aquí debe quedar más claro el efecto de la acción del mecanismo, el corte, más que la situación que existe después de la acción, o sea el cierre.
Entiendo que lo que quieren es decir que el corte se produce limpiamente y de forma hermética.
