Stainless banding buckles are hardware products used to secure ends together for safer storage or transportation of an item. They are also referred to as stainless steel banding clips.
The two primary applications of stainless steel strapping and banding tools are hose clamping and load securement. Thanks to their strength, they are ideal for heavy-duty commercial and industrial use.
Ideal for all kinds of industries and environments, stainless steel banding buckles offer the most secure way of securement. It is used with other accessories such as;
- Banding reels or steel strapping. These come in handy in demanding commercial and industrial jobs. Each reel usually is 335 metres long with varying widths ranging from 13mm, 16mm, and 19mm.
- Sealer tool for crimping seals on stainless steel strapping tool.
- Safety cutting shears for cutting steel strapping (it is utilized on all steel strapping sizes, so you need only one in your kit).
- Tensioner tool used for fastening the strapping.
To fix the banding strapping, first, you need to cut it to the right circumference, leaving some extra length. Thread through the buckle and then fold it back on its length. Loop the banding around the item you want to secure and feed the other end back through the banding buckle. Tightly secure it using stainless banding tool and cut, leaving a short piece to tuck back through the buckle.

What is a stainless-steel banding buckle?

Types of Banding Buckles
To understand what you need to use, you need to know the types available. Let’s take a look at each:
Open Strapping Seals
Normally, these are used for steel strapping and poly strapping. They are the most common kind of buckle you will find and are used to maintain strap alignment before applying tension with the proper strapping band tool. The seals are made using galvanized steel and can work with metal strapping between 3/8 and 2 inches.
The three styles of open strapping seals are; open, thread-on, and semi-open. There could be texturing or serration in the interior for a better grip for some of the poly strappings, especially when tightening with a banding strap tool.
Closed/Pusher Strapping
When securing things like round or irregularly-shaped packages like coils, pipes, and others, you will need this strap. The strap is forced through the seal, forming a slip loop that can be pulled by hand around the package.
Then, it is tightened using a tensioner (*and secured with a notch sealer. This type is made using galvanized steel and is best used with metal strapping between 3/8 and 2.25 inches in width.
Screw Buckles
As the name implies, this type uses screws to hold everything in place. They are used with stainless steel banding straps and can be installed without stainless steel banding tool. The screw buckles are made available in ¼ inch and ¾ inch options.
Magazine Seals
Typically, these seals are stacked together and permit loading stacks into magazines of seal feeding tools. The best use for them needs you to add banding tools for stainless steel bands and power strapping machines to the mix.
Wing Seals
When working with light gauge metal strapping, wing seals are the way to go. They are made using aluminium, stainless steel, or galvanized steel. They can accommodate straps that range from 3/8 inches to ¾ inches.
Closing them is easy because you can do it with a hammer on any surface or position without needing banding tools with steel bands.
That means they work well with unusual shapes.
Wire Strapping Buckles
With wire strapping buckles, tensioning can be done using no stainless banding tools at all. The materials used are stainless steel, phosphate-coated steel, or galvanized steel. Wire buckles work well with strapping that is ½ inches to 1 ½ inch wide.
You can get heavy-duty wire buckles that are made out of heavy gauge wire.
