Steel Strapping & Steel Banding

Steel Strapping (also known as Steel Banding) is the strongest and most durable strapping solution for securing extremely heavy or sharp-edged loads. It provides high tensile strength, low elongation, and maximum load stability during storage and transportation.

Steel strapping is commonly used for:

Export packing and container shipments
Heavy-duty pallet strapping
Securing bricks, timber, and metal products
Bundling sharp or abrasive goods

Browse our range of steel strapping coils, seals, and tensioning tools — designed for high-performance industrial applications.

Types of Steel Strapping Coils

Steel strapping is available in two main coil formats:

Ribbon Wound Steel Strapping

Each layer is wound directly over the other
The coil width matches the strap width
Ideal for lower-volume applications and storage efficiency

Oscillated (Mill Wound) Steel Strapping

Multiple windings per layer across a 63.5mm core width
Longer coil length for higher-volume operations
Reduces coil changeover time and increases productivity

Both options require a compatible steel strapping dispenser.

How to Apply Steel Strapping

Steel strapping can be applied manually or with a pneumatic tool:

Feed strap around the load
Tension using a strapping tensioner
Seal with strapping seals/clips using a crimping tool
—or choose a seal-free strapping tool with integrated lock-punching technology

Our range includes:

Steel strapping kits
Manual and automated strapping tools
Seals, buckles, and dispensers

Safe Cutting & Removal

⚠️ Steel strapping is under tension and must be handled safely.

Always:

Wear gloves and eye protection
Use a steel strapping cutter suitable for high-tension steel
Cut away from your body

Some cutters feature padded jaws to prevent the strap from snapping back dangerously.

Why Pallet Stability Fails (And How to Fix It)

And when this […]

Supply Chain Efficiency at the End of The Line

End of Line Packaging Is a Supply Chain Decision End‑of‑line packaging is where products are sealed, protected and prepared for storage or distribution. It is the final physical interaction before goods leave your control, and one of the most influential. Poor end‑of‑line packaging doesn’t usually cause one obvious failure. Instead, it creates friction: Products take […]
