Cord & Composite Polyester Tensioners
A range of high-quality tensioners for use with cord and composite polyester strapping. Economical, effective, efficient and simple to use.
These tensioners work by means of a ratchet mechanism which ensures the appropriate level of tension can easily be applied to your parcels, packages and pallets. Once the strap has been joined by means of a buckle the tensioner is utilised to create comprehensive consignment closure and containment.
We have a variety of tensioners to accommodate different budgets and applications. All of our tensioners are of all-metal construction, and all would be used in conjunction with our range of CB buckles, either galvanised or sheradised:
