Composite cord strapping is an indispensable tool in many different fields and industries. However, not everyone knows how to use composite straps most safely. In today’s article, SKYPAK would like to share with readers how to use composite straps safely and effectively, helping to speed up the completion of work. Continue to follow our article below!
Basic tools needed for the use of composite cord strapping
Before proceeding to tie the goods, you need to prepare the following tools:
composite cord strapping: This is the most important and indispensable item. The lashing composite straps are manufactured from high-tenacity polyester yarns coated with polypropylene. composite cord strapping is relatively soft, it is used for heavy-duty strapping, sometimes as an alternative to steel straps.
Belt buckles: Select the steel bolts with the size corresponding to the size of the composite belt used.
Belt lifting device: Helps to stretch and tighten the belt, and firmly fix the goods.
Instructions for using composite cord strapping
Carry out the binding of goods with composite straps according to our instructions below:
Step 1: Attach the belt
Fold the composite straps and thread inside the steel bar from bottom to top and make a loop into the top left prong of the buckle.
Step 2: Wrap the straps around the package
First, place the end of the belt on the top of the strap as shown in step 1. Then, pull the belt around the container to be fixed.
Step 3: Pull the belt through the belt buckle on the right side of the belt buckle. Do the same operation as step 1 with the other side.
Step 4: Tighten the belt with the belt tensioner
Move the control lever of the belt-tightening tool, and insert the composite belt to fix the wire position. Then put the remaining composite belt into the cutter part. Push the joystick from top to bottom until the belt reaches the desired tension.
Step 5: Cut the belt
Once you have the strap at the desired tension, simply push the control lever all the way down, which rotates the cutter bar at the base of the tool and completes the tensioning.

Notes when using composite cord strapping
As we mentioned above, lashing composite straps come in a variety of sizes. Therefore, it is advisable to choose a belt with a size suitable for the type of goods to be bound. The parameters to keep in mind when choosing composite belts are:
+ The volume of packages that you need to transport.
+ Wire width
Required length.
– Common width falls in the range of 13-16 -19 -25 -32 mm
. Strength 0.5 to 2.4 tons
In addition, supporting tools such as strapping bolts also need to be selected corresponding to the belt size. Avoid choosing too large or too small steel bars, which will waste unnecessary costs.
The process of lashing the goods needs to be done in the correct order. This not only helps the rowing to be done quickly but also scientifically and effectively.
In addition, in order to pack goods to the best effect, it is recommended to combine the use of composite straps and airbags. The use of additional airbags will help the package to be fixed and not move and shockproof during transportation. Goods should be tied to wooden pallets. This makes it easier to move goods in and out of the container.
With the above instructions and usage notes, we hope that readers have a better understanding of composite straps and know how to choose the most suitable type of composite strap when binding goods.
