Why you need a wide strap battery strapping tool for heavy loads
Wide strap battery strapping tool GT MAX: when your loads are steel coils, paper reels, timber packs or building materials, you need a tool built for 25 mm or 32 mm PET strap, and you need it to work wherever the load stands, without dragging an air hose or trailing a power cable.
The cost of strapping heavy loads without the right tool
Wide PET strap for heavy loads needs a tool made for its width and thickness. A wide strap battery strapping tool such as the GT MAX joins the strap by friction welding, so no metal seals are needed, and it runs on its own battery, so there is no hose or cable at the load.
- Friction weld joint, no metal seals
- 36 V battery, no compressed air or cable
- Up to 300 straps per charge
- Automatic or manual mode
How the GT MAX wide strap battery strapping tool works
The GT MAX tensions PET strap at up to 5 m/min and joins it by friction welding. No metal seals are needed: the tool melts the overlapping strap layers together. It operates in automatic or manual mode, so you can match the cycle to the load.
The GT MAX32 variant applies up to 6500 N of tension on a single strap and up to 13000 N on the package. It weighs 6.2 kg, keeping operator strain manageable even across longer runs. The battery is an Akku Power SP7 Li-ion unit that delivers up to 300 strapping cycles per charge with more than 500 charge-discharge cycles over its life.
Because the tool runs on a battery, you can move freely around large loads. There is no compressor to start up, no hose to route, and no cable to trip on.
Where the wide strap battery tool fits and where it does not
The GT MAX is built for the heaviest PET strapping applications: steel, paper reels, timber and building materials. It takes PET strap 0.9–1.3 mm thick in either 25 mm or 32 mm width depending on the variant.
- GT MAX25: for 25 mm PET strap.
- GT MAX32: for 32 mm PET strap. Smallest flat surface 400 mm; smallest round load diameter 1000 mm.
Each variant handles one width only. If your operation uses both 25 mm and 32 mm strap, you need both tools. The GT MAX does not accept steel strap or textile strap; it is a PET-only machine.
What to check before you order your wide strap battery strapping tool
Confirm the strap width your application requires. The GT MAX25 is for 25 mm PET strap and the GT MAX32 is for 32 mm PET strap, each accepting thicknesses from 0.9 to 1.3 mm. You select the variant when you place your order.
- Strap material: PET only.
- Strap thickness: 0.9–1.3 mm.
- Included: battery strapping tool, Akku Power SP7 battery, charger.
- Not included: PET strap, dispenser cart.
A kit version with strap and a dispenser cart exists as a separate product. If you need consumables or a cart alongside the tool, check the kit listing.
