Features of Clips for PP & PET Strapping
Clips, often referred to as seals or buckles, play a crucial role in both manual and semi-automatic strapping systems, helping to secure PP (Polypropylene) and PET (Polyester) straps. Their clever design guarantees a solid hold for a variety of packaging needs.
Types of Buckles for Cord Straps
- Metal Seals (Crimped Seals) : Used with manual or pneumatic sealers.
- Serrated Seals : Provide extra grip, mainly for PET strapping.
- Smooth Seals : Suitable for PP strapping with lower tension.
- Wire Buckles : Used with PP straps, allowing re-tensioning.
- Plastic Buckles : Lightweight option for light-duty PP strapping.
Material & Durability
- Galvanized / Stainless Steel :These materials are known for their corrosion resistance and impressive durability.
- Heavy-Duty Metal : Specifically crafted for PET strapping, they can handle high tension with ease.
- Plastic (Polycarbonate / Nylon): Ideal for lighter applications when using PP strapping.
Grip & Strength
- Serrated Inner Surface: This feature boosts grip and minimizes slippage, making it perfect for PET strapping.
- High Tensile Strength : This ensures that the strap won’t break under pressure.
- Self-Locking Design: Wire buckles allow strap tensioning without additional tools.
Compatibility & Application
- PP Strapping Clips: Usually plastic or smooth metal seals, suitable for light to medium loads.
- PET Strapping Clips: Strong serrated metal seals for heavy loads and high tension applications.
- Used in Manual & Pneumatic Strapping Tools: Compatible with hand sealers and tensioners.
