ABL Distribution supplies polyester PET pallet strapping tools for securing medium to heavy-duty pallet loads across Brisbane, Queensland and Australia. Our range includes PET strapping tensioners, crimpers, sealers and pallet strapping accessories for industrial packaging applications.
Polyester strapping tools are designed for use with PET strapping, helping businesses apply the correct tension, secure metal seals and improve pallet load containment during storage, handling and transport.
Polyester PET Pallet Strapping Tools
Polyester PET pallet strapping tools are used to tension, seal and cut PET strapping around palletised freight, cartons, bundled products, building materials, timber, bricks and industrial loads. They are commonly used by warehouses, manufacturers, freight companies, transport operators and export packaging businesses.
Using the correct PET strapping tool helps improve packaging consistency, reduce product movement and support safer freight handling throughout the supply chain.
Types of Polyester PET Strapping Tools
| Tool Type | Purpose | Common Applications |
|---|---|---|
| PET Strapping Tensioners | Apply tension to polyester strapping before sealing | Palletised freight, timber, cartons, bundles and industrial loads |
| PET Strapping Crimpers | Crimp metal seals or clips onto PET strapping | Manual PET pallet strapping and transport packaging |
| PET Strapping Sealers | Secure seals around tensioned polyester strapping | Warehousing, dispatch, freight and pallet load containment |
When to Use PET Strapping Tools
PET strapping tools are suitable when securing medium to heavy-duty pallet loads that require stronger tension than standard polypropylene strapping can provide. They are commonly used for freight, transport, manufacturing, building materials, export packaging and industrial pallet strapping.
Polyester strapping offers excellent tension retention, making it a practical choice for pallets that are transported long distances, handled frequently or exposed to movement during freight.
Manual PET Strapping Tools vs Battery Powered Strapping Tools
| Tool Type | Best For | Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| Manual PET Strapping Tools | Low to medium-volume pallet strapping | Portable, cost-effective and suitable for warehouses and dispatch areas |
| Battery Powered PET Strapping Tools | Higher-volume pallet strapping operations | Faster application, consistent tension and reduced manual effort |
Choosing the Right Polyester Strapping Tool
Strap Width
Choose a PET strapping tool that suits the width and thickness of your polyester strapping. Using an incompatible tool may affect tensioning, sealing and overall load security.
Load Weight
Heavier pallet loads generally require stronger tensioning and reliable seal performance. PET strapping tools are designed for medium to heavy-duty packaging applications.
Application Volume
Manual PET strapping tools may suit occasional or medium-volume users. High-volume warehouses and transport operations may benefit from battery powered strapping tools or automated strapping equipment.
Seal Type
If you are using metal seals or clips, ensure the crimper or sealer is compatible with both the seal and the polyester strapping being used.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are PET strapping tools?
PET strapping tools are tools used to tension, seal and cut polyester strapping around pallets, cartons, bundles and industrial loads.
What tools are needed for PET strapping?
A typical PET strapping setup may include a tensioner, crimper or sealer, metal seals, polyester strapping, a cutter and a dispenser.
Can PET strapping tools be used with polypropylene strapping?
Not always. PET and polypropylene strapping often require different tools depending on the strap width, thickness, tension requirements and fastening method.
What is the difference between a PET tensioner and a PET crimper?
A PET tensioner tightens the polyester strapping around the load, while a PET crimper secures the metal seal or clip to hold the strap in place.
Are PET strapping tools suitable for heavy pallets?
Yes. PET strapping tools are designed for medium to heavy-duty pallet loads where stronger tension and reliable load containment are required.
Do I need a battery powered strapping tool?
A battery powered strapping tool may be useful if your business straps pallets regularly and needs faster application, consistent tension and reduced manual effort.
Can PET strapping replace steel strapping?
PET strapping can replace steel strapping in many applications, but steel strapping may still be required for very heavy, sharp-edged or rigid industrial loads.
