Bandfix® Banding Tool
our most popular banding tool due to it's ease of use and high quality, also referred to as a "Whirley Bird" strapping tool due to the operation to tighten. This banding tool is used to fix stainless steel banding and strapping. Banding tools help apply tension to the banding, create a seal or connection, and trim excess strapping. The choice of tool and strapping material depends on the specific requirements of the job and the type of load being secured.
These tools are commonly used in various industries and applications for packaging, sign fixings, shipping, and securing loads. For example, they are often used alongside Bandfix® Sign Banding for signage and traffic control purposes, or used with Bandfix® Stainless Steel Banding for metal insulation, securing bundles of cables or pakcaging purposes.
