Steel Strapping & Metal Banding Tools

The three main types are steel, polyester (PET), and polypropylene (PP) strapping. Steel offers the highest tensile strength for heavy industrial loads, PET provides strong, flexible retention for lumber and heavy loads at a lighter weight, and PP is a cost-effective option for light bundling, cartons, and general packaging needs.

Steel strapping delivers maximum strength for heavy, rigid loads like steel coils. Polyester (PET) strapping offers high tensile strength with more flexibility and elongation recovery, suited for lumber and dense loads. Polypropylene (PP) strapping is the lightest and most economical, best for lighter cartons and general shipping applications.

Meridian Packaging offers a low minimum order quantity of just one coil per unit, allowing businesses to test products or fulfill smaller operational needs without committing to bulk purchases. Volume and bulk pricing is also available for larger orders, with custom quotes based on quantity and delivery location.

Strapping size selection depends on load weight, edge sharpness, and application type. Heavier, rigid loads like steel coils typically require wider, thicker steel strapping, while lighter cartons and packages work well with narrower PP or PET strapping. Our team provides guidance to match the correct width and tensile rating to your load.

Steel strapping generally offers the highest tensile strength among strapping materials, capable of withstanding significant tension without stretching or breaking. Exact strength varies by width, thickness, and grade, such as the 0.625in x 2940ft steel coil option, which is engineered for heavy industrial bundling and steel coil securing.
