High-Strength, Rust-Free Securing for India’s Steel & Metal Manufacturing Industry
Pack Strap™ is Shivoham Fabtech’s premium composite cord strap — manufactured from high-tenacity polyester (PET) yarn core encapsulated in a UV-stabilised thermoplastic polymer sheath. With system breaking strengths from 480 kgf at 13 mm to 2,600 kgf at 32 mm, it delivers the structural capacity required for heavy metal loads while its all-polymer construction eliminates the rust transfer, surface damage, and operator injury risk that steel banding introduces at every stage of the packaging and dispatch cycle.
The Engineering Challenges We Solve
Steel banding the conventional securing system for metal products and machinery — fails across three critical dimensions in industrial packaging and export operations. Shivoham Fabtech manufactures Pack Strap™ composite cord strap to resolve all three simultaneously, providing a technically superior and operationally safer replacement for steel banding in metal product and heavy machinery securing.
Surface Damage from Rust Transfer on High-Value Metal Products
Steel banding corrodes in humid storage and transit environments, transferring rust stain directly onto polished, anodised, coated, or painted metal surfaces. For aluminium extrusions, stainless steel components, galvanised sections, and coated structural steel destined for export markets, rust staining permanently destroys surface quality and triggers cargo rejection at destination. Pack Strap™ contains zero metal content. It cannot corrode, and will not rust, stain, or chemically react with any metal surface at any point during storage or transit.
Operator Safety – Eliminating Snap-Back Hazard on Strapping Lines
Under tension, steel banding stores significant kinetic energy. When a tensioned strap is cut or a joint fails, this energy releases instantaneously – creating a violent snap-back that causes deep lacerations to hands, arms, and face. This is a recognised occupational hazard across steel service centres and metal packaging operations. Pack Strap™ releases tension with significantly reduced snap-back force due to its elastic polyester construction, and produces no sharp cut edges at any stage of application or removal.
Tension Loss on Smooth Metal Surfaces
Smooth metal surfaces — polished bar stock, drawn tube, coated sections — offer very low friction to steel banding, causing slippage and load shift during road and rail transit. Pack Strap™’s thermoplastic polymer sheath maintains consistent grip on smooth substrates. Its elastic memory actively recovers tension under vibration and dynamic transit loads, maintaining stable strap tension from point of dispatch to point of delivery without re-tensioning.
