Tensioners for Metal Strapping
Use these tensioners to draw metal strapping tight around packages. These tensioners hold the bottom strap while either a feedwheel or gripper bites into the strap and tightens it.
Tensioners for open seals are for use on flat surfaces. Strapping is wrapped around the package and overlapped on top. Tensioners for closed seals are for use on irregular surfaces as well as rounded objects. Place the seal on one end and fold strapping back to form a hook, and then slide the other end of the strapping through the seal. Tensioners push against the seal as they tighten strapping.
Style A, B, and C tensioners have a lever handle that you squeeze to tighten the tension. They have unlimited ratcheting take-up, so they can be continually tensioned until tight. Style D tensioners have a wing handle that you spin to tighten the tension. They have limited ratcheting take-up, so they can only be tensioned to a certain point before they need to be reset. When the gripper moves all the way back to the handle, you’ll know they need to be reset.
Note: To match with compatible metal strapping, choose items with the same strapping material, width, and thickness or material and strapping group number.

High-Tension Tensioners for Metal Strapping
These tensioners apply maximum tension to pull strapping more tightly around packages than standard tensioners for metal strapping. They work on irregular surfaces as well as rounded objects. Place the seal on one end and fold strapping back to form a hook, and then slide the other end of the strapping through the seal. Tensioners push against the seal as they tighten strapping, creating high tension without slip. Pull strapping tight manually before applying tension.
Style A tensioners have a wing handle that you spin to tighten the tension. Style B, C, and D tensioners have a lever handle that you squeeze to tighten the tension.
Tensioners with limited ratcheting take-up can only be tensioned to a certain point before they need to be reset.
Note: To match with compatible strapping, choose items with the same strapping material, width, and thickness or material and strapping group number.

Seals for Metal Strapping
Use a sealer to crimp these seals onto metal strapping to keep it under tension.
304 stainless steel seals are more corrosion resistant than zinc-plated steel seals.
Open seals are for use on flat surfaces. They snap onto overlapping strap ends during or after application of tension. Closed seals are for use on irregular surfaces as well as rounded objects. They feed onto strap ends before tension is applied with a tensioner.
Note: To match with compatible metal strapping, choose items with the same strapping material and width or material and strapping group number.

Buckles for Light Duty Metal Strapping
Use these buckles to secure Light Duty Metal Strapping around pipe or packages. They feed onto strap ends before tension is applied with a tensioner.
304 stainless steel buckles have good corrosion resistance.
316 stainless steel buckles have better corrosion resistance than aluminum and 304 stainless steel buckles.
Note: To match with compatible metal strapping, choose items with the same strapping material and strapping group number.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Sealers for Metal Strapping
Also known as crimpers, these sealers secure seals (sold separately) onto metal strapping.
Sealers for open seals cut two notches on each side of the seal with one operation. Sealers for closed seals cut a single notch on each side of the seal with one operation. For best results, apply two notches per seal.
Note: To match with compatible strapping, choose items with the same strapping material, width, and thickness or material and strapping group number.

Combination Tensioner/Sealers for Metal Strapping
These tools do double duty, pulling metal strapping tight and then fastening it, without the use of a separate seal. They create a joint by crimping interlocking notches into the strapping and cutting off the excess.
