on line box

Polyester is the most rigid of all strapping materials. It elongates significantly less than polypropylene and retains tension over a longer period. Polyester is nick resistant and on line box can be sealed with seals, heat or friction welds. because polyester offers the greatest strength and highest retained tension of all plastic strapping, it line is frequently used on heavy duty box loads that need high initial tension along with high retained tension during handling and storage. common applications are empty cans and bottles, lumber and heavy, rigid palletizing. polyester has a smooth, shiny finish and is easy on to dispose of and recycle.polypropylene strapping is the most commonly used and least expensive of all strapping materials. line it is light and easy to apply and recycle. characteristics include high elongation and elongation recovery, but low box retained tension. polypropylene is an excellent on choice for light duty palletizing, unitizing, carton closing and bundling. because of its embossing (or waffle) line pattern, strap thickness is not a useful measurement. a standard 1/2" machine grade box strap can be embossed on to a thickness of anywhere line between .014 and .030, depending upon how box deep the embossing pattern on is. an overly embossed strap will be thicker, but will have a lower break strength. carton reinforcement: a 3:1 ratio of strap to carton weight is recommended. for a 100 lb package this could be done with (1) 300lb tensile strap or (2) 150lb straps. unitizing and bundling: a 5:1 ration line of strap to carton weight is recommended. palletized cases: required tensile strength = (pallet weight x 1.5) / # of straps
