The Fromm P359 tool is a one-of-a-kind pneumatic tool that can pull an enormous amount of tension and is the strongest in its class.

Specifications

• Strap Dimensions:  1″ or 1.25″ x .040 – .053” (maybe up to .060″)
• Maximum Tension: 1,570 pounds

When compared to battery operated tools, pneumatic tools are considered very heavy, but the P359 disproves that by being very light and weighing just about 19 pounds. Since the tool tensions, seals and cuts all by itself, it saves a lot of operator energy and proves to be more effective. It has also proven to be very cost effective and reliable by not breaking down. It is a long lasting tool and is extremely useful for the packaging industry.

As this is a heavy duty tool it is important that the poly strapping holds up for the applications that it is banding. Poly strapping has higher elongation and is a good shock absorber.

There are also no sharp corners and it is very safe for the operator to handle.

If you like Fromm’s tools, but think the P359 is a little heavier than you need, there is Fromm’s P356 which is similar and does the same functions for different strapping sizes.
