Strapping
Strapping is a popular, economical method of stabilising items on a pallet. There are several options in materials & thicknesses to suit your needs.
Polypropylene Strapping
- Polypropylene strapping offers the greatest elongation of all strapping and has a good recovery of initial properties
- Very flexible & will mould around most surfaces
- Commonly the most cost effective of all the strapping methods
- Can be friction sealed to cut out the usage of seals (Friction Sealer required)
- Available in a wide range of thicknesses & strengths
- Available for both hand & machine applications
Steel Strapping
- Most commonly used where superior strength and protection is needed
- Protects during air, sea, rail and road shipping
- Available in a variety of widths and thicknesses
- Different variations & grades available – Zinc, Black etc.
Polyester Strapping
- Has a stronger Break Strain than Poly & would be similar to steel strapping giving excellent retained tension properties
- Higher tensile strength
- Can be used to replace Steel in some applications giving a neater finish
- Polyester can be friction sealed to cut out the usage of seals, (Friction Sealer needed)
Cord Strap
- Cord Strap is closed using a buckle which can have a more closed seal
- Higher elongation which gives it an ideal memory for sea and rail shipments
- Used in Balers, primarily for ease of use
