Fromm P329

Fromm P329

The Fromm P329 is a battery powered plastic strapping designed for banding 5/8 to 3/4 inch poly strapping. It features the latest in reliable lithium ion battery and brushless motor technology that ensures minimal wear and maintenance.

This battery bander is poised as one of the toughest strapping machines in its class. It has built a reputation for its speed, convenience and high end performance. It also makes banding much more effortless than before. The tool weighs just 9.2 pounds and is easy to carry around. It features a new, efficient and powerful brushless motor, and a new 18V lithium ion battery. It can last all shifts and offers high levels of performance.

Versatile Applications

The plastic strapping tool is highly versatile and can band irregular shaped, round and small packages. It has a unique and new single-based design, which means it can easily squeeze into tighter spaces. This is unlike the separate base in earlier tools under their feedwheel that made it impossible for removing the tools.

Eliminate Operator Mistakes

The Fromm P329 is designed to ensure that the tool does all the work and eliminates any chances of operator mistakes. It helps in eliminating or reducing strapping errors at the joint. It helps in achieving a joint efficiency in the range of 75 and 90 percent, which is one of the best you can achieve, and offers high level of reliability.

Another new feature found in this tool is the welding system being controlled by the motor. It ensures that the weld has cooled down before you remove the tool. Besides, it features a new brushless motor that helps in minimizing the frequency of maintenance and tool repair.

Are you looking for the most reliable pneumatic steel strapping tools? Here are the most widely used and tested steel strapping tools from Fromm to meet your different needs.

A483 Pusher Tool

The Fromm A483 is a pneumatic combination tool for tensioning and sealing steel strapping available in 2 models – for 1-1/4 inch and for 1-inch steel strapping. It weighs around 39 lbs yet it is capable of withstanding continual operation without any issues. It is designed to be used with high-tensile steel strapping for heavy duty applications.

A452 Tensioner

The Fromm A452 tensioner is a pneumatic push-type tensioner designed for strapping 3/4 inch and 1-1/4 inch steel straps. It is well known for generating high level of strapping tension (8,500 N or 1,910 pounds). Thanks to its unique free-wheeling system, there is no loss of strap tension on completing the tensioning cycle.

The A452 weighs around 9.6 pounds, which makes it a lightweight steel strapping tensioner that can be used for both stationary and mobile applications. It is designed for speed and rugged applications. The angled duck bill nose means push/closed seals. It can be used with both high tensile and regular duty steel strapping.

A461 Sealer

The Fromm A461 Sealer is a pneumatic steel strapping sealer for 3/4 inch to 1-1/4 inch steel straps. It is designed to allow the operator to complete tasks with single hand. This steel strapping sealer from Fromm applies upcut double-notch joint. A single push will result in secure and smooth seal application. It has a special safety system preventing defective seal joints because of operator error, thus making it a highly reliable tool.

This Fromm sealer is considered to be one of the strongest pneumatic tools, as it can generate peak tensioning force of 1,900 lbs. It is a lightweight sealer that weighs just around 9.3 lbs.

A480 Pusher Tool

The Fromm A480 Pusher is a pneumatic combination steel strapping tool for 3/8 inch to 3/4 inch steel straps. It has relatively lower weight compared to its other counterparts in the same segment. This eliminates the need to suspend it during application. In other words, it is considered a better steel strapping combo tool for mobile applications.

The A480 Pusher tool weighs around 9.9 pounds. It is perfect for strapping wire coils, tubes and various types of small bundles. It makes use of push-seals, which are perfect for narrow and round packages. Its smaller size gives it an edge, making it one of the lightest and easiest pneumatic tools to use for steel strapping.
