Plastic Strapping
Our sales, equipment service, customer service and engineering departments can help you design the optimum protective packaging system for your application.
Tensioners
Signode India offers a variety of hand tools for tensioning and sealing plastic strap. For some strapping operations, a manual tensioner and separate sealer provide an economical means of applying plastic strapping. Metal seals are used to form the strap joint.
Feedwheel type
A serrated feedwheel grips the strapping and rotates to draw up slack. Fast and easy to position and use. Take-up is unlimited, and strapping may be used directly off the coil.
Windlass type
Applies tension by gripping one end of the strapping and winding the other around a slotted shaft. Can apply greater tension than feedwheel models
Walking gripper
Lightweight tensioner/cutter designed for buckle applications with plastic strapping. Provides maximum tension with Steelock or Dylock buckles.
Sealers
Front-action sealer handles are held perpendicular to the strapping, usually in front of the operator who pushes handles together to crimp the seal.
Combination Tools
Manual seal-feed combination tools offer the convenience of a single tool that tensions, seals and cuts the strap. These tools carry a stack of seals in a seal magazine for more efficient operation.
Manual
The AST manual seal-feed combination tool uses Contrax, Dymax and Tenax strapping. The AMT-58 is the ideal tool for High-Strength Tenax strapping.
