A steel strap cutter is one of the essential pieces of equipment for any business using steel strapping on a regular basis. This tool is specifically designed to make easy work of the task of cutting steel straps after they have been secured around a load. Without a cutter that is meant for this job, you’ll find that trimming your straps to the appropriate length will be difficult and time-consuming. For quality steel strapping cutters at competitive prices, order from Vulcan Wire today.
To make sure cutting the excess strap is not a hassle, be sure to have a quality steel strap cutter that is built for the job. Vulcan Wire offers two options: one-handed models and two-handed models, based on the size of strapping you need to cut. As long as you know the width and thickness of the straps you will be using, picking the right cutter for your needs is an easy job.

TWO HAND | 3/4 – 2″ | UP TO .044 | HD SHEARS |
Using steel strapping is really pretty simple. The strap is wrapped around the pallet or some other kind of load, and it is tightened using a tensioner. From there, a seal is compressed using a sealer to hold the tension in the strap. As the last step, the excess strapping should be cut off to tidy up the job and prevent any issues later on (like the excess strap getting caught on something). This is where the strapping cutter comes in handy.
