Polypropylene (PP) hand strapping coils can either be used with hand strapping tools, friction weld tools, or can be used manually with strapping buckles. The strapping tools that are required/recommended are a tensioner, sealer and semi open metal seals. Alternatively, a combination tool can be used (which is a combination of a sealer and tensioner in one), alongside semi-open metal seals. Mobile strapping trolleys and strapping stands are also available to make the process easier, and to move the ‘kit’ around the warehouse or workspace without difficulty. If you are new to strapping, we would recommend looking at our range of a polypropylene hand strapping kits, which contain a choice of all these items.

Another option is to use friction weld strapping tools, which are a significantly faster but a more expensive solution. Friction weld strapping tools such as the RXT and ZXT do not require the use of seals, and significantly improve and ease and speed of strapping. Friction weld strapping tools can be used with polypropylene strapping or polyester (PET) strapping.

What Does Break Strain Mean?

The brake strain on a strapping coil is the maximum pressure point on the box/pallet under which the strap can withhold the appropriate weight without snapping.
