In the above section, you will find premium quality strapping kits for 16mm steel strapping, available with a choice of tools. Steel strapping provides robust strength and is used in heavy-duty applications such as shipping and transportation of industrial products, and within the construction industry. Because of steel and its innate nature, a steel strapping kit is extremely durable. It can withstand very high temperatures too. Steel strapping kits require snap on metal seals, sealing tools, and a tensioner, or a combination tool.

The two steel strapping kits available for 16mm steel strapping are as follows:

TSSK 16mm Steel Strapping Kit – This contains a 16mm wide steel strapping coil, a sealer tool for steel strapping, a tensioner tool for steel strapping, a mobile dispenser trolley for steel strapping & 2000 snap on seals for 16mm steel strapping.

SCSSK 16mm Steel Strapping Kits – This contains a 16mm wide steel strapping coil, a seal-less combination tool for steel strapping (no seals required for use) & a mobile dispenser trolley for steel strapping.

What works best for steel strapping – a combination tool or a tensioner and sealer?

To tension and seal steel strapping, a business can either opt for a seal-less combination tool, which does not require the use of metal snap on seals, or alternatively opt for a separate sealer and tensioner with the use of snap on metal seals.

A combination tool is effectively a combination of a sealer and tensioner in one tool, avoiding the need to switch tools during the strapping process. The combination tools stocked at Globe Packaging for steel strapping are also seal-less, avoiding the need for the use of snap on seals. The strap simply feeds in and can be tensioned and sealed in one process. This naturally improves the speed of strapping significantly, and avoids the ongoing consumable cost for snap on seals.

A seal-less combination tool is significantly more expensive than purchasing a separate sealer/tensioner and snap on seals, hence the answer to the above question depends on your business usage for steel strapping, and the level of speed required as a result.
