Cable fastening, metal strap, plastic-coated steel strap, tightening strap, pipe fastening
The universally applicable fastening system, plastic-coated steel strapping, is used for the permanent and gentle fastening of cables, lines and pipes, e.g. B. corresponding carriers and routes. According to the principle "soft shell - hard core", the plastic-coated steel strap consists of a high-strength metal core and a protective, soft plastic coating. The metallic band serves as a high-strength load carrier and allows the highest mechanical loads. The high-quality, durable plastic coating protects both the metal strip from corrosion, for example, and the cables and lines to be fixed from cuts.
Plastic-coated steel tape is ideal for cable and pipe attachment. The stainless steel is rustproof, fire resistant and of the highest quality.
Why steel strap?
Depending on the requirements, the metal strip is made of stainless hot-dip galvanized steel, stainless steel (V2A) or high-quality antimagnetic stainless steel (V4A). These materials enable the fastening system to be highly durable, long-lasting and fire-resistant. The steel strap absorbs the enormously high forces when tensioning and lashing the strap. Compared to pure plastic cable ties, steel cable ties are 100 times more durable, weatherproof and fireproof.
Why plastic coating?
The steel strap is coated with a high-quality, flame-retardant plastic (V2 according to UL94). The plastic protects the steel strip from the effects of corrosion (weather-resistant) and mechanical influences, e.g. B. friction and scratch marks on carriers and thus ensures a long service life. In addition, the plastic coating of the strap also protects the cables to be bundled, so that e.g. B. the cutting of cables is avoided and thus the risk of short circuits and the resulting risk of fire is permanently reduced. The plastic coating of the tightening strap also serves as thermal and electrical insulation, as is required in the application, particularly in the electrical sector and for pipe fastening. Additional edge or corner protectors are not required. In addition, this very flexible plastic coating protects the user from direct contact with the steel strap, so that there is no risk of injury when installing the strap. In addition, the plastic coating enables a perfect unity with the environment thanks to the very pleasant feel and the individually configurable design.
V0 and halogen-free for the highest requirements
For the highest fire protection requirements, such as in power plant construction, the energy sector and shipbuilding, types of plastic with flame-retardant and self-extinguishing properties and free of Holgen are used (V0 according to UL94). These prevent the plastic from catching fire and do not emit any harmful halogens in the event of a fire.
Where is the steel strap used?
In most cases, the plastic-coated steel tensioning strap is used as a cable tie and for permanent and vibration-free Cable attachment and pipe attachment used in shipbuilding, energy and power plant sector and meets technical requirements with regard to prescribed metallic fastenings of cables, for example. Due to the protective plastic coating and the resistant stainless steel core, the tensioning strap can also be used permanently under vibration, in moving/dynamic systems and for fixing sensitive cables. This vibration resistance is achieved through the choice of ductile and very durable plastic. The durability of the strap is designed for a service life of at least 30 years and thus also enables safe use in other areas.
Plastic-coated steel tape can also be used for hobbies and at home
The high durability; Weather resistance and longevity, paired with the user-friendly dispenser boxes and the simple attachment enables use in the home. Be it as Cable attachment, pipe attachment or for hanging ceilings. The metal tape is also ideal for attaching signs, fire extinguishers or other parts. It is even used as a design strip for furniture. There are no limits to creativity here. The optically appealing plastic coating also serves as a design element and can be used as a fastening tape for furniture coverings, in plant construction, in electrical installations, in mechanical engineering and in house construction.
The steel tensioning strap is used for the professional, fast and economical assembly of additional units or system parts, such as batteries, containers, etc. in the mobility sector (cars, trains, airplanes, etc.)
The metal strap is too can be used as a repair tape
The plastic-coated steel strap can be used as a repair strap if damage is detected early in the indoor or outdoor area. For example, if the greenhouse is in danger of collapsing due to storm damage, the weather-resistant steel tensioning strap can be tightened from the outside to ensure increased stability. Due to the unique combination of metal and plastic, the repair strap is both dimensionally stable and flexible. It can therefore be individually adapted to all circumstances by bending.
How is plastic-coated steel strip used?
The application is very simple. The universally usable plastic-coated steel tensioning strap is wound on rolls in a practical dispenser box and can easily be unrolled into individual lengths without the rest of the roll unwinding. With the special collet with integrated cutting function, the clamping band is cut to length and can then be pulled around the component to be clamped. Our tried-and-tested L-clip closures are slipped over the strap; the band is folded over and lashed with the collet. The strap is then bent around the robust L-clip, automatically cut off and the L-clip tabs are bent over for permanent attachment. Alternatively, the tightening strap can also be tightened and fixed with common DIY tools (combination pliers, metal scissors, hammer). With the user-friendly collet with integrated cutting function, however, this can be implemented much more quickly and conveniently.

What variants of the metal band are there?
The plastic-coated steel strap is available in widths of 16.50 and 9.00 mm. Packed in convenient dispenser boxes, the steel tensioning strap can be individually cut to length without waste. Common bundles consist of 100 or 300 m strap, special strap pliers (with cutting function) and 500 or 1,000 L-Clip locks.
