Key Details and Uses

These clips work in conjunction with steel strapping to maintain tension and prevent loads from shifting during handling, storage, and transport.

Size and Compatibility: The 5/8" size refers to the width of the steel strapping they are designed to be used with. The clip's width must match the strapping width for a secure seal.
Material: They are typically made from galvanized steel or carbonized steel, which provides high strength and resistance to corrosion and rust, making them suitable for harsh or outdoor environments.
Application: A specialized strapping tool (tensioner and sealer/crimper) is required to place the clip over the overlapping ends of the tensioned steel strap and crimp it tightly to form a durable, load-bearing joint.
Types: Common types for steel strapping include:
- Open Seals (Snap-on): These slide onto the strap before tensioning and are easy to position.
- Closed Seals (Thread-on): These are threaded onto the strap before being wrapped around the package.
- Some clips may also feature an internal serrated pattern to provide a better grip on the strapping, improving the joint strength and resistance to slipping.
Common Applications:
- Securing heavy-duty loads like steel beams, lumber, piping, or machinery.
- Bundling large quantities of construction materials.
- Palletizing goods for secure warehouse storage and shipping.

The strength of the seal is crucial for safety and is a function of the clip's quality and the proper use of the strapping tool to ensure a secure crimp.
