Shipping items either locally or internationally can be complicated, especially if the load is on the heavier side. Sometimes using shipping tape or duct tape may not be enough. In these cases, you can use metal strapping. Metal strapping, also known as steel strapping, is a widely used method of securing shipping loads for a number of reasons, and it presents users with a lot of benefits. To learn more, keep reading about steel strapping below.

What Is Metal Strapping and How Can It Help You Secure Your Items?

Metal strapping is an ultra-strong metal strap that can be firmly fastened to a box or structure to secure the object inside so it doesn’t move during shipping. When you’re shipping important products and materials, you need to make sure that everything is secured safely so it won’t get damaged.

Steel strappings come in various alloy combinations that offer different levels of strength and elasticity. Metal straps are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use because of their ability to endure humidity, heat, UV rays and also retain tension.

At Staples, you’ll find a wide range of metal strapping lengths and types, along with other shipping, packing and mailing supplies to ensure you can safely transport your goods.

How Can You Use Steel Strappings?

When you want to secure your objects, the possibilities are endless with metal strappings. At Staples, you can find a strap for anything that you need to secure. Some of the most common usages for steel strapping include:

  • Bundling together metals, construction pavers and bricks
  • Bailing wire and other strong steel coils
  • Securing glass in packaging so it stays locked in place to prevent breaks, scratches or other damage
  • Securing wide objects in large containers like boxcars and trailers
  • Locking items into place on top of crates and pallets
  • Securing smaller items, like newspapers, small packages, tools, printer paper and more for shipping and handling

What Kinds of Metal Straps Are Available?

When you’re shopping for metal strapping, you should consider the amount of strength you will need to secure your items. Stainless steel — which is the oldest form of strapping — is still one of the most common materials available because it will not stretch or break easily. Strap metal made of high-tensile steel offers optimal strength for heavy-duty uses.

Metal strappings are also available in polypropylene and polyester, which ensure items are firmly secured in place. The thickness of the straps affects its overall strength. Thicker options measure 6 inches, which is ideal for heavy loads and rigid palletizing. Other straps, measuring 0.015 millimeters (½ inch), are sturdy enough for bundling office supplies in cardboard boxes.

When you’ve chosen the metal strapping, make securing easier with shipping and packing dispensers, cutting tools and tensioners for safe and effective packing.
