Embossed PolyesterEmbossed PolyesterSmooth Polyester
Embossed Polyester

JEM Polyester Strapping is green opaque and is available in 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", and 1" widths with various break strengths and gauges available. Coil Size for JEM Polyester Strapping is 16" x 6" and ships 28 coils to a skid.

Why are people switching to Embossed Polyester from Smooth Polyester?



  • Embossed polyester requires less force to tension which results in tighter packages.

  • If you are using battery tool with embossed, you will get more cycles out of your battery before charging is required, especially in cold weather applications.

  • Its been shown that you get better seal joint effeciency with embossed as opposed to smooth.

  • Embossed polyester tends to split less.

SEALS
It is very important that you use the correct sealer and seals for your strapping application. Note that without the proper sealer and seals, the seal joint efficiency may not meet the specifications listed in the ASTM Standards for steel and non metallic strapping. Please Contact a JEM sales representative for assistance in choosing the proper tooling and seals for your application.
BREAK STRENGTH
Strapping break strengths are listed as averages. Always use linear break when calculating break strength. Refer to the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM D3950) minimum break strengths for package design/safety factor purposes. All measurement, size, footage, tensile, thickness, are nominal measurements based on an average measurement made on a number of samples. Variation in measurements are due to standard manufacturing practices. For proper strapping selection, contact your JEM sales representative
