Steel Strapping Tensioner, Front Action, For Use With Plastic, For Strapping Width 9181814/4

Manually-operated tensioner tools for polypropylene strapping tighten strapping before the ends are secured using a seal and sealing tool. Correct tensioning ensures bundles or packages are secure during shipping or storage, and help prevent over tensioning that can damage boxes and contents. They can be carried to the work location and do not require an external power source or attachments, so are often used in low-volume applications or where access to a power source is limited.

Tensioner tools for polypropylene strapping, sometimes called poly strapping, tighten strapping before the strapping is secured using a sealing tool. Correct tensioning ensures bundles or packages are secure. Manually-operated tensioners don't require access to a power source, while pneumatic tensioners connect to a compressed air source to speed up processing in medium- and high-volume applications. Battery-powered tensioners have a rechargeable battery.
