Green PET Strapping Band 15.5 × 0.7 mm × 1800 m – Up to 430 kg

Green PET strapping band 15.5 × 0.7 mm × 1800 m is a strong polyester packaging strap designed for securing and stabilising medium-weight and heavy loads during transportation and storage.

Manufactured from PET (polyethylene terephthalate), this strapping offers high tensile resistance, elasticity and good tension retention. It is widely used for industrial packaging, pallet strapping, building materials, timber, metal products and other heavy goods.

The 15.5 mm width and 0.7 mm thickness allow the strap to be used with compatible manual, battery-powered and mechanised PET strapping equipment.

The 1800-metre roll is practical for regular and intensive packaging operations, allowing longer working periods without replacing the strap.

With a declared tensile strength of up to 430 kg, the strap can be used in higher-tension strapping applications when an appropriate joining method and complete load-securing system are selected.

Advantages & Additional Information

• Declared tensile strength up to 430 kg – intended for more demanding strapping applications.

• 15.5 mm width and 0.7 mm thickness – practical dimensions for professional PET strapping.

• 1800-metre roll length – fewer interruptions for strap replacement.

• PET polyester material – strong and elastic packaging strapping.

• Good tension retention – suitable for securing loads during transportation.

• Elastic structure – helps accommodate some load movement and changes in applied forces.

• Moisture resistance – PET does not rust or leave corrosion marks.

• Lighter than steel strapping – easier to transport and handle.

• Compatible with battery-powered tools – suitable for professional strapping when equipment specifications match.

• Versatile applications – pallets, timber, building materials and industrial goods.

PET Strapping – A Strong Alternative to Steel Strapping

PET (polyester) strapping is widely used in industrial packaging as an alternative to steel strapping for certain load-securing applications.

PET strapping combines high tensile resistance with elasticity, helping maintain load stability during transportation when vibration and minor load changes occur.

Unlike steel strapping, PET does not rust or leave corrosion marks on packaged products.

PET is also lighter than steel, making it easier to handle in warehouses and packaging areas.

However, PET is not a universal replacement for steel strapping. Suitability depends on load weight, temperature, sharp edges, transportation conditions and the properties of the complete strapping system.

15.5 mm Width and 0.7 mm Thickness for Professional Strapping

The 15.5 mm width and 0.7 mm thickness are intended for equipment designed to handle polyester strapping of these dimensions.

These specifications are important when selecting a battery-powered strapping tool, manual tensioner, strap dispenser and joining accessories.

Even when a tool supports 16 mm PET strapping, its permitted strap thickness and compatibility with the specific product must be checked.

Properly matched strapping and equipment help maintain consistent operation and reduce the risk of improper joining.

Declared Tensile Strength up to 430 kg

The technical specification indicates a tensile strength of up to 430 kg.

This value describes the declared resistance of the strap to tensile loading and does not directly represent the maximum permissible weight of the packaged load.

Actual securing performance depends on strap tension, joint strength, number of straps, load geometry, packaging characteristics and transportation conditions.

For demanding applications, refer to manufacturer technical data and applicable load-securing requirements.

Elasticity and Tension Retention

PET strapping offers elasticity that is useful during transportation.

Loads may be exposed to vibration, impacts and minor changes in shape or dimensions.

The elastic properties of PET allow the strap to accommodate some of these changes while maintaining its securing function.

Compared with standard PP strapping, PET is often selected when higher tensile resistance and more stable long-term load securing are required.

1800-Metre Roll for Intensive Packaging

The 1800-metre PET strapping roll is practical for warehouses, logistics centres and manufacturing facilities performing regular strapping operations.

A longer roll reduces the frequency of material replacement and helps maintain an efficient workflow.

For example, if one strapping cycle uses 4 metres of strap, a 1800-metre roll theoretically provides approximately 450 strapping cycles, excluding processing waste.

Actual consumption depends on load dimensions and the selected strapping method.

Compatibility with Strapping Equipment

PET strapping can be used with different strapping systems, provided they support 15.5 mm wide and 0.7 mm thick PET material.

Manual strapping: the strap is tensioned using a manual tensioner and joined with compatible metal seals or another approved method.

Battery-powered strapping: compatible tools may tension, friction-weld and cut the strap in a single working cycle.

Semi-automatic and automatic strapping: the strap may be used in machines specifically designed for PET strapping and supporting the stated dimensions and roll format.

Not all automatic machines designed for PP strapping can handle PET strapping.

PET Strap Joining Methods

Depending on the equipment, PET strapping can be joined using different methods.

Friction welding: commonly used in battery-powered PET strapping tools. The strap ends are joined using heat generated by friction.

Metal seals: used with certain manual strapping tools designed for PET strapping.

The joining method is important because insufficient joint strength can reduce the performance of the complete strapping system.

Use with Protective Edge Corners

When securing loads with sharp or pressure-sensitive edges, protective corners are recommended.

L-shaped plastic edge protectors 40 × 40 mm can help distribute PET strap pressure over a larger surface area.

This is particularly useful for cardboard boxes, timber products, furniture components and other goods with edges that may be damaged by higher strapping tension.

Edge protectors also help reduce direct contact between the strap and load corners.

Applications & Usage

PET strapping is used for pallet strapping, securing building materials, bundling timber and boards, packaging bricks and blocks for transportation, grouping metal products, furniture manufacturing, warehousing, logistics and export shipments.

It is suitable for businesses requiring strong and elastic strapping material for professional applications.

Important Information

PET strapping is not a universal load-securing solution. Suitability depends on the complete strapping system and transportation conditions.

Do not use PET strapping with equipment that is not designed for its width, thickness or material.

When securing products with sharp edges, appropriate protective accessories must be used to reduce the risk of strap damage.
