Pneumatic push type steel strapping tools are designed specifically to endure maximum loads with heavy duty strapping on compressible packaging applications. Equipped with push type seals, these devices not only simplify the operation but also guarantee unlimited strapping without compromising on safety factor. While many companies have come up with tensioning tools with advanced features, it is FROMM who deserves special mention in his regard.
One FROMM product that is highlighted in this category is the A452 pneumatic pusher type steel strapping tool. It comes with a range of attractive features and options best suited for metal industries. Steel pipes, coils or any large object which can’t be strapped with conventional tools can be easily banded with the A452.
Basic features of A452
- Strapping qualities offered are Regular Duty (Uniflex) and High Tensile (Ultraflex)
- Permissible strapping dimension are 19.0 – 32.0 mm / 3/4 – 1 1/4” wide and 0.63 – 1.27 mm / .025 – .050” thick.
- The machine weighs around 9.6 lbs.
- Very high strap tension of 8500 N / 1900 lbs.
- High quality double notch up-cut seal joint is provided by separate sealer model A461 or A412.
- Eye bolt is supplied with the tool for suspension purpose.
How clients can benefit from A452
- The first characteristic which deserves mention is very high amount of strap tension of around 8500N. Then the unique freewheeling technique assures that even when the tensioning is completed, strap tension is retained.
- As a safety precaution, a black safety push button is provided to release the strap tension in case of emergency.
- The elegantly designed ergonomics ensure that the device can be used on any round or irregular shaped object and heavyweight application. Steel processing industries have specifically benefited with this pneumatic type push tensioner.
- Separate sealing is provided by FROMM 461 so that the user doesn’t need a separate sealing tool. However, for small or lightweight applications, the manual sealer A412 will suffice, as the pneumatic power of the A452 may be too harsh for fragile and small loads.
- Because of its air qualities, the device operates quicker than its competing manual tools.
- This tensioning tool is quite light making it ideal for non-stationery applications.
As is evident from the above discussion, FROMM A452 is one reliable, super-fast and cost-effective strapping option which suits varied applications.
