ZAPAK Plastic Strapping Tool

ZAPAK battery-powered strapping tool for PET and plastic straps

ZAPAK’s cordless design puts a strong, production‑ready battery-powered strapping tool directly in your hand. It combines high strap tension, reliable friction‑weld sealing and clean strap cutting in a single automatic cycle. The result is faster palletising, fewer process steps and a secure joint every time.

Built for demanding packing lines

This battery powered strapping tool is engineered for busy warehouses, manufacturing lines and logistics hubs that move a steady flow of pallets and machine packages. At just 3.4 kg including the battery, it is easy to manoeuvre at shoulder height or around bulky loads. Patented strap‑holding inserts grip consistently, helping the tool reach up to 4000 N of strap tension where the load requires it. For delicate products, the soft‑tension mode reduces the force and ramps up gently, so corrugated boxes and lightweight items are pulled together without crushing.

Automatic cycle: tension, seal and cut

With one press, the ZAPAK performs three operations in sequence: tensioning, sealing and cutting, so operators keep both speed and consistency high. The welded joint is formed by a controlled friction motion that softens and fuses the strap ends together. This friction‑weld joint is widely used for PET strapping because it produces a robust, seal‑free connection and a flush profile that will not snag as goods move through your supply chain.

Digital control with clear feedback

Setup is straightforward. A pre‑programmed control panel lets the user dial in target tension and sealing time for different strap and load types. An audible signal confirms cycle completion, so the operator can step to the next strap without guesswork. Because settings are repeatable, shift‑to‑shift results are consistent and training is kept simple.

Battery power that keeps up

The included 18 V / 4.0 Ah Li‑ion battery pairs with a Bosch charger to deliver fast turnaround, typical charge time is about 30 minutes. That means the cordless strapping tool can stay on the line instead of the bench, supporting continuous work throughout the day.

Comfortable one‑hand operation

The handle geometry and balanced centre of mass support genuine one‑hand use, reducing strain during repetitive work. Whether you are strapping at the top of a pallet stack or close to floor level, the compact body and trigger layout make the tool easy to position and operate. The clean cut produced at the end of the cycle leaves no sharp edges or loose strap tails that could catch on racking or packaging.

Flexible strap guidance for 16 mm and 19 mm

Adjustable strap guides set the tool up for either 16 mm or 19 mm plastic strapping. Correct alignment speeds up loading, keeps the weld area clean and helps ensure each cycle produces the same quality joint. The tool is intended for PET and plastic strapping in the stated widths.
