The Grip Pack 114 sealer is the first battery powered steel strapping tool manufactured by Signode for 1 ¼” high tensile strapping. As with other Signode tools, this tool is also very easy to operate and durable. This tool is also ergonomically designed and light in weight.
As with all other tools from Signode, the Grip Pack 114 sealer also comes with a great user’s manual which is of help to the operator. In order to make even this easier to the operator, the company provides training on how to use their tool. The company insists that the workers adhere to the rules given in their safety manual in order to avoid accidents of any kind. Though the tools are light weight and easier to use, basic precautions should be taken to avoid the risk of injury.
The Grip Pack 114 sealer runs on the lithium-ion operated battery produced by Bosch. This is so powerful that it can apply close to 300 seals per battery charge. The great feature of this battery is that it is not only durable and longer lasting, but it also recharges very quickly. It is a benefit to industries which have a heavy work load.
The Grip Pack 114 sealer has a sensor that detects steel strapping, so no application gets misfired. When the tool is placed over the seal and the trigger is pulled quickly the joint gets sealed.

But since this tool is light the Grip pack sealer 114 is slowly gaining popularity.
However, experts agree that this tool is a great addition to the steel strapping industry. Some also feel that banding can now be easily done on lazy susan turn tables. Especially now with the arrival of the lithium ion battery, people may slowly stop using manual and pneumatic sealers. The Grip pack 114 sealer is already a hit in the rail road industry.
