When the applications are light duty or smaller, you can complete the applications using a manual sealer.
Advantages
There are many advantages of using this combination tool:
- Extremely high strapping tensioning force of 1,910 lbs.
- Once the desired tensioning is achieved, the tool stops but doesn’t lose any tension thanks to the free-wheeling system.
- There is a safety-push button that releases strap tension when required.
- The tool offers extremely high tensioning speed.
- It is a highly rugged and durable tool and is perfect for strapping irregular shaped objects in the steel industries.
- Despite its high power, the tool works silently.
- Light weight ensures that it is the perfect tool for carrying around.
- Special design means tool repair is easy and quick.
Functioning
The working involves threading the seals on the strap and then the fromm tools will push them along the straps while applying the tensioning force. The air qualities make it a quick tool. The push seals will require a little amount of strap prep time.
