Usage ofFlexible Straps
Polyester Composite Strapping and lashing (flexible soft straps) are widely used because of its flexibility and toughness.
The main benefits of Flexible Straps
● Safety
The Polyester Strapping is designed to protect your employees and customer from injuries while providing maximum load containment strength. There are no sharp edges when cut, and it does not spring back like steel banding. This quality offers protection for employees, customers and machinery, while giving you an inexpensive alternative to steel strapping.
● Strength
The Polyester Strapping is as strong as steel with comparable break strengths to conventional steel banding. Due to the elongation properties and shock absorbance capacities, The Polyester Strapping requires more energy to break. It is also five times lighter allowing for ease and flexibility of use.
● Protection
The soft and flexible texture of the strapping protects the most sensitive products. It is safe on virtually all surfaces which minimises waste and eliminates costly re-work. The Polyester Strapping corded polyester does not corrode, rust, or stain your products, and will not damage forklift tires.
● Does not rust or rot
The Polyester Strapping will not stain your products.
● Cost effective
The Polyester Strapping is a cost effective alternative to steel strapping. And it eliminates the "hidden costs" of steel banding - such as damaged products, downtime, workmen's compensation, tooling and repair costs. Our tools are only a fraction of the cost and maintain a longer life.
● Easy disposability
Due to the lightweight and flexibility of the environmentally-friendly strapping, disposal is hassle-free. The Polyester Strapping is a fraction of the size of steel and eliminates the need for strap choppers. It can be disposed of with regular industrial waste or recycled.
● Shock-absorbency
Due to the memory and elongation and elongation recovery, The Polyester Strapping can absorb shocks much better than steel strapping, and it will not lose its tension if the load contracts or expands.
● Low tooling cost
Only a single tool is needed and the wear and tear is minimal. Tooling and repair costs are just a fraction of steel strapping tools.
● High joint efficiency
The Polyester Strapping features a steel wire buckle, the strongest joint available which can be re-tensioned if required. The strap and buckle can be re-used in some applications.
