For a company that uses poly strapping as part of its daily operations, having the right equipment on hand is essential. Luckily, Vulcan offers all the poly strapping tools you need. Each item features the quality construction you have come to expect from our brand. Whether you need a single tool or an entire tool kit, we would be happy to serve you.
Strapping tools are available for widths as narrow as 3/8” light duty and up to 1 ¼” high tensile poly cord strapping. If you do not see what you need, please contact us for pricing and availability.
To put strapping in place, a tensioner is a required piece of equipment. This is the device that is going to tighten the strap around whatever load is being contained. Make sure to order the right tensioner to fit the size of the straps you use at your business. See the chart below for assistance, or contact our helpful staff with any questions you may have.

The first step in the process is to tighten the poly straps using the tensioner. From there, a poly strapping sealer can be employed to bring the two ends of the strap together and secure the tension. Just as with the tensioner, you’ll have to pick out the right model sealer to work with your chosen strap sizes.

As the name would suggest, a combo tool brings together the tasks of tensioning and sealing into a single unit. You can simplify your process by using this tool instead of a separate tensioner and sealer. This can save you some space and time. Manual and battery tools are available.
