Mounting methods

Polypropylene straps could be used with manual tools and with automatic packaging machines. The first type of strapping material is used with a load on pallets, which will be transported by road and rail transport. The material is suitable for goods weighing up to 4-5 tons. The second type of strapping material is used in industries with a high turnover of products, where it is important to save time on the packaging process.

Polypropylene straps can be fixed in several ways.

• Strapping clip. This is the most economical option, in which the ends of the packing strap are fixed with metal clips.
• Thermal equipment. The ends of the packaging strap are welded under the action of high temperature. 
• Wire buckles. The strap is passed through the buckle with a special tensioner. This is the most reliable method of fastening. Metal buckles are used for packing heavy loads. Plastic buckles are used for printing or light goods.
