textile strapping
To ensure the film stays in place during transport or outdoor storage, it’s essential to strap the protection with a flexible, sturdy, non-aggressive textile strap. This specific strap is designed to facilitate film application and optimize shrinkage by holding it firmly in place before it is heated and shrunk. The strap’s composition enables it to withstand the heat generated during the shrinking process, guaranteeing its effectiveness and durability.
In addition to facilitating film shrinkage, the textile strap offers additional protection by ensuring greater stability during transport or storage. This stability is essential to prevent the film from shifting or tearing due to wind or frequent handling. By holding the film securely in place, the strap prevents damage caused by external conditions such as gusts of wind, bad weather or temperature variations.
The durability of this textile strap is also a major advantage. It guarantees long-lasting durability, even when the film is exposed to harsh outdoor conditions. Once the strap is in place, it creates an effective barrier against wind infiltration, providing optimum protection for the film. In short, good film shrinkage depends to a large extent on the use of quality strapping for upstream strapping. This not only ensures easy and safe installation, but also lasting protection against external elements that could damage the film. So, to guarantee the longevity and integrity of the film, we strongly recommend the use of this sturdy, resistant textile strap.
To ensure that the film stays in place during transport or outdoor storage, it’s essential to secure the protection with a flexible, robust and non-aggressive textile strap. It facilitates film installation and shrinkage by holding the film in place before heating and shrinking. Designed to resist heating, this strap ensures long-lasting hold and prevents wind ingress, which can damage the film. Good film shrinkage requires effective strapping beforehand.
Textile straps are paired with retaining buckles. These galvanized steel buckles physically lock the textile strapping in place with the help of the tensioner. Easy to use, these sturdy strapping buckles hold the strapping perfectly in place. They are indispensable for good strapping. Self-locking steel buckles are designed to withstand the high tension of textile strapping. Once the strapping has been tightened, it’s important to protect the buckle with adhesive tape. The film conforms perfectly to the shape of the product to be shrunk, preventing any holes from forming. Once the strapping has been tightened thanks to the buckles and tensioner, you can install the shrink film and slide it under the strapping for optimum hold. This will help you shrink the film and hold it perfectly in place.
Like the strapping, they are also available in two widths (0.51 inch and 0.75 inch) to suit the straps used.
