Strapping is only useful if it is tightened properly around a load. Often, seals are used to maintain the tension that is placed in the strap, holding everything in place until the strap is cut free. To compress the seal around two ends of a strap, a steel strapping sealer is the right tool for the job. With a firm seal in place, the strap will be able to maintain its tension nicely, and the materials secured within should hold steady during transit or storage.
The key when picking out your sealer is to select the appropriate model for the job at hand. That means selecting the right sealer for the type of seals you’ll be using and the size of the straps—taking into consideration both width and thickness.
At Vulcan, we have sealers available for both open seals and closed seals, and we have models for a variety of strap sizes. As long as you pick the right tool for your situation, this device should prove handy and easy to use. If you have any questions when trying to find the right sealer, feel free to contact us for assistance.

Purchasing a strapping sealer is a step in the right direction, but this is far from the only tool involved in the process. Without the other pieces of equipment on hand—like a tensioner, cutter, and seals—you won’t be able to get very far with your straps. Whether you decide to purchase these tools individually or opt for a combo tool that does it all, Vulcan is ready to fill your order.
Let us know the wire or packaging supplies you need, and one of our experts will contact you with price and availability. We’ll also be happy to help discuss your needs with you, make product recommendations, and answer any of your questions.
