MIP Tools catalogue comprises sealers, cutters, tensioners, combination tools, plastic strappings and strapping dispensers. MIP strapping cutters are used to chop off excess steel strapping, reducing injuries caused by sharp edges. The brand's steel strapping tensioners are used for tightening & packing steel products having widths ranging from 3/8 to 3/4 inches. These tensioners either require or do not require pre-threading applications, owing to push and snap-on seal specifications, respectively.
These tools are small in size and require compact packaging. They are suitable for courier shipment & air freight.
Tools like strap tensioners are used to tension steel straps. The user should leave some strapping at the front of the tool. Then the tension lever should be released. Lastly, moving the tension lever back & forth tensions the strapping.
Strapping tools like duck-billed shears can be used for cutting steel strappings. Strappings should be cut squarely to prevent the formation of sharp pointed ends.
Snap-on, push-on, push-on & open and snap-on & open seals are supported by MIP heavy-duty steel strapping sealers.
Open (Snap-On) seals are majorly applied on polypropylene straps and work primarily on flat surfaces. Closed (Push-On) seals are mainly used on steel straps for irregular or rounded objects. These closed seals are installed before tension is applied over the steel strap ends to keep them in line during tensioning.
