- Improve split-resistance to increase reliability in tools and power equipment
Pai and Pai manufactures plastic strapping for use with hand tools and high production power strapping machines. Pai and Pai's manufacturing processes are designed to:
High-Strength Tenax Polyester Strapping
New High-Strength Tenax™ is a heavy-duty polyester strap that has been specially engineered to provide an extremely tough and strong alternative to steel. Ideal for both medium and heavy-duty loads. Tenax provides outstanding pack security for a wide variety of applications, including aluminium, corrugated products, metal, construction materials, timber, textiles and unitised cans/bottles. Not surprisingly it is rapidly becoming the preferred packaging material for the many industries that demand high performance and excellent product presentation.
Tenax Polyester Strapping
Tenax polyester strapping is designed for medium to heavy-duty palletising and unitising applications and can be applied by hand tools or power strapping equipment. This strapping material yields higher break strengths and maintains a higher level of retained strap tension than polypropylene strapping for maximum load stability. This makes it ideal for signature bundles and palletised loads of printed materials that tend to shift during handling and transit. Tenax is available in sizes ranging from 9mm to 16mm.
