Steel Strap Seals

Steel Strap Seals for Locking Steel Strapping Joints

Steel strap seals are the snaps that lock a steel strapping joint. Once the strap is tensioned around a load, the seal is placed over the overlapped strap ends and crimped with a sealer, holding the joint at full tension. They are the most common seal for steel strapping and suit most applications, working with standard steel strapping sealers and tensioners. Premium Packaging supplies steel strap seals in bulk to metal, building supply, manufacturing and heavy industry across Australia, delivered from our Sydney base.

How Steel Strap Seals Work

Steel strap is joined with a seal rather than a buckle or weld. Wrap the strap around the load, tension it with a steel strap tensioner, overlap the two strap ends and slide the seal over them, then crimp the seal with a sealer to lock the joint. The crimped seal grips both strap ends so the joint holds at full tension. Match the seal size to the strap width so it seats correctly and crimps cleanly.

Part of the Steel Strapping Method

The seal is one part of the steel strapping kit. You need the strap, a tensioner and a sealer to complete a joint. The seal joins steel strapping once a steel strap tensioner has drawn it tight, and a steel strap crimper presses the seal onto the strap. A steel strap dispenser feeds the roll cleanly at the bench. Buying the seals, strap and tools together keeps everything matched to your strap size.

Where Steel Strap Seals Are Used

• Metal and steel products, securing coil, sheet, bar and fabricated items
• Bricks, pavers and masonry, on heavy rigid loads
• Heavy machinery and engineering, for loads that demand maximum holding strength
• Any steel strapping station as the standard consumable seal
