Composite strap – The Future of Strapping

What\’s Composite strap? also known as polyester straps, are a type of strap made from composite bundles of glass fiber polyester threads, coated with a layer of PE or PP film, and available in widths ranging from 13mm to 32mm. They are commonly used for securing and bundling goods during transportation and packaging.

To use these straps effectively, a complete set of equipment is required, including the straps themselves, steel buckles, and tensioning devices. Additionally, a strapping cart can be used for added convenience during usage and transportation.

In terms of usage and precautions during the strapping process, any questions or concerns can be promptly addressed by contacting us at HPS. We welcome all customer inquiries.

Advantages of composite straps and their applications:

Advantages

• Sturdiness: Composite straps have high tensile strength, up to 2700kg per strap or more depending on conditions. They are suitable for securing heavy loads and are gradually replacing steel straps. They are often referred to as \”synthetic steel straps\” due to their suitability.
• Easy to use: Composite straps are soft and smooth, making the strapping process effortless. The steps are straightforward.
• Lightweight and easy to carry, making it more convenient for strapping goods.
