Cord strapping is gaining prominence in the strapping industry. This kind of strapping is durable and long lasting that industry experts feel it is on par with poly strapping and that it will hold its own place in the market. Also, the arrival of the new C11 Battery Tensioner exclusively for cord strapping has turned the attention towards cord strapping in a big way.
This product brought out by Golden Bear is the first battery bander/tensioner to hit the market and has already made a mark in the industry. The C11 is a very easy way of using the cord strap. It comes with two lithium batteries and a charger. Lithium batteries are known to be durable and this battery can last about 300 pulls. However, there are no pneumatic lines to drag and that is an advantage.
Currently this tool uses a patent pending drill to drive the windlass tensioner. A drill is used to pull the cord strap tight. Earlier, this was not the case as the cord was manually or pneumatically pulled. The drill has been designed for tough outdoor use which is a perfect thing for the battery cord tensioner.
Industry experts consider the drill to be a great addition to power tensioners. There is enough power even for demanding loads. It can pull 2,700lbs of tension on high torque mode. Also, it can run very fast on a high speed mode. Using a drill to power tensioners is a great option. There are instances of motors and circuit boards burning up in other battery tools using poly strapping. But now, only an inexpensive drill is needed if ever anything goes bad. There is also a lashing tool with a larger gripping foot that is presently in testing and will soon be released. The C11 is a very tough tool and is long lasting.
The cords for strapping using the C11 comes in a wide variety of sizes. The orange woven cord is the most common cord strap in the market. It can be used to package anything from lumber to general packing. Since it is very strong it can be a great replacement to steel. It does not rust or cut and is very safe. Cord strapping is also very cost effective. The cord strapping is made of high strength industrial polyester strap and that makes it stronger.
