If you need to secure items for transportation or storage, don’t forget to stock up on black strapping. This highly durable and convenient tool keeps everything in place, large and small, until you need it again.
What Is Black Strapping?
Strapping is an excellent solution for securing items during transportation and storage. It can also be used for straps to secure items like backpacks, shoulder bags, seatbelts and more. Use black strapping for packaging, bundling, securing or reinforcing items like pallets or other items that might be loaded onto a truck. The dark color of the strapping won’t catch the eye and easily blends into most environments.
Why Choose Black Strapping?
Some reasons to choose black strapping include:
- Weather resistance: All types of strapping offered by Staples are able to stand the test of time against unfavorable weather conditions.
- Practicality: Strapping easily rolls up to fit into tight spaces and is sturdy but lightweight, making it easy to carry anywhere you need it.
- Versatility: Most strapping is perfect for anything from hiking to camping to accessories, making it a great choice to add to any camping supplies.
- Long-lasting: Strapping comes with a durable design to handle the toughest jobs.
- Low-slippage: Secure these over pallet covers and sheeting without worrying about your boxes going anywhere thanks to strapping slip-resistance.
What Features Are Available for Black Strapping?
Black strapping offers several features to choose from to personalize your black strapping experience.
Strap Material
Black strapping is available from Staples in the following materials:
- Steel: Black steel strapping is ideal for binding tougher materials like steel cables, pavers, bricks, baling wire and other metals. Glass is also often bound in steel strapping to keep it from being scratched during the transportation process. Black steel strapping has a high break strength and durability, with good shock protection.
- Polyester: A lighter-weight choice in comparison to steel strapping, black poly strapping is a cost-effective option for businesses that don’t need to haul extremely heavy items. Medium to heavy pallets and more can be secured with polyester strapping. It also retains tension over time, staying very secure.
- Polypropylene: This type of black poly strapping is the most lightweight of the three options. Popular for bundling or for light palletizing, this product shouldn’t be used on heavier materials. However, it’s very cost-effective for businesses that don’t require heavy shipping.
Break Strength
Break strength is the tensile force that’s required to break a strap, measured in pounds. Staples carries a variety of break strengths in black strapping, from under 500lbs to over 2000lbs.
Strap Width
Strap width matters for securing items during transport. The wider a strap is, the more support it offers for heavier and larger objects. Some items may need smaller strapping, however, to prevent slippage if they are extremely small. Choose from ½ inches, ⅝ inches or 1¼ inches of strapping.
