Our range includes steel strapping tensioners, crimpers, sealers, cutters and compatible pallet strapping accessories for industrial packaging and freight applications.
Steel strapping tools are designed to tension, seal and cut metal strapping around heavy, rigid or sharp-edged loads. They are commonly used with steel pallet strapping and steel strapping seals to secure products during storage, handling and transport.
Metal Steel Pallet Strapping Tools
Metal steel pallet strapping tools are used for heavy-duty manual strapping applications where strong load containment is required. They are suitable for securing steel products, timber packs, machinery, construction materials, bricks, pavers and industrial freight.
Using the correct steel strapping tool helps improve strap tension, seal security and overall pallet load stability.

When to Use Steel Strapping Tools
Steel strapping tools should be used when securing heavy-duty pallet loads that require the strength and low stretch of metal strapping. They are commonly used for products that are heavy, rigid, sharp-edged or difficult to secure with plastic strapping.
Steel strapping tools are ideal for demanding freight, storage and export applications where maximum load security is required.
Choosing the Right Steel Strapping Tool
Strap Width
Choose steel strapping tools that match the width and thickness of the steel strapping being used. Using incompatible tools may affect tensioning, sealing and overall load security.
Load Weight
Heavy loads generally require stronger tensioning and reliable sealing. Steel strapping tools are designed for heavy-duty applications where high holding strength is required.
Seal Type
Steel strapping tools should be matched with the correct steel strapping seals, including pusher seals or snap-on seals depending on the application.
Application Environment
For industrial sites, manufacturing facilities, transport yards and warehouses, durable steel strapping tools help improve packaging consistency and safety.
