Steel strapping is a robust metal banding material commonly used for securing hefty loads during transit or storage down under.
Crafted from a range of steel grades, it’s available in various widths and gauges to suit different weights and bundling needs.
The main game of steel strapping is to offer a sturdy and reliable way of keeping items tightly bunched together, ensuring they don’t budge an inch.
In the Australia packaging and freight industry, steel straps are the go-to for locking down items like bricks, metal components, and building supplies on pallets or inside containers.
They’re also tops for beefing up wooden boxes, crates, or corrugated boxes, providing extra rigidity.
The big win with steel strapping is its cracking tensile strength and next-to-no give, making it the duck’s nuts for demanding jobs where the cargo might cop a battering or have to face harsh conditions.
The intricacies of steel strapping are well-understood by our team, with over 100 years of combined experience in the steel manufacturer.
From large corporations to small businesses and individual needs, we provide tailored solutions that suit every client without the intimidation factor often experienced in this sector.
Safety as Top Priority
Handling heavy-duty metal straps comes with risks, which is why we emphasize the importance of proper safety gear. We recommend:
- Leather or cut-resistant gloves
- Safety glasses
- A thick, long-sleeve shirt
These precautions will protect you from potential injuries during hands-on work, such as latticework installations.
How to Utilize Our Steel Strapping Tools
Our selection of tools ensures that you can secure your steel straps effectively and safely. Here’s a simplified guide:
- Prepare the Straps: Begin by wrapping the steel band under the cargo and overlapping the ends.
- Tension the Straps: Use the tensioner to remove slack and secure the cargo.
- Seal the Straps: Apply a metal seal with the crimper to fasten the straps together.
- Trim Excess: Use metal shears to cut away unnecessary strapping.
- Final Checks: Ensure that the sizing of straps and tools is compatible for a smooth process.
