A383 – The Most Reliable Sealless Tool

The Fromm A383 is the heaviest and largest pneumatic tool that is used in metal, steel and lumber industries. Steel strapping is considered the best strapping in the packaging industries, though many industries complain about its disadvantages. Even though steel strapping may not be as cost effective as poly strapping, industry users continue to use it as it makes for effective packaging.

The A383 is ideal for 1.25” high tensile steel straps and heavy duty applications. This tool comes in two versions: that is semi-automatic and automatic. There is also a choice of having four different tensioning levels to suit different types of applications. Also, the steel and lumber industries have seen great productivity using sealless combination tools. They prefer A383 as it pulls tension of about 3300 pounds.

This amount of tension is possible because of its large size. The tool is durable and ideal in extreme weather conditions. Another feature of this tool is that it is ideal for packing flat packages and those that are difficult to strap. Industry experts believe Fromm’s A383 is the only tool in the market that is capable of pulling over 3300 pounds of tension, which is far more than some of the other tools of the same caliber. The sealless lock system also provides greater seal security.

Sealless tools are becoming very popular these days considering that these tools are far more cost effective than others. They are also much more productive which pays off in the long run.

As it is a Fromm tool, customers can be assured of a consistent performance from this tool. Fromm tools are all ergonomically designed and very user friendly. All tools come with a good safety manual and instructions to operate the tool.

Fromm’s Strongest Pneumatic Sealer – A461

Fromm is a well known manufacturer of strapping tools and is very popular in the packaging industry. They make several types of tools like manual, pneumatic and battery operated tools. The packaging industry relies on several tools that help packing regular and irregular packages of different shapes and sizes.

The tools manufactured by Fromm are user friendly and require single handed operation. Some of the industries prefer to use separate tensioners and sealers, though there are combination tools available. The Fromm A461 is one such tool that operates only as a sealer and has to be used along with the A452 which is a tensioner tool.

These tools are the perfect tools to be used for strapping round and irregular objects. While many industries prefer electric or battery operated tools to pneumatic tools, there are several industries who still continue to use the pneumatic tools and consider them to be more advantageous than battery operated tools.

Advantages

• A461 is suitable for strapping beams, pipes and packages of small surfaces
• Can be used with a suspension bracket for stationary use
• Good for uninterrupted heavy duty strapping
• As they do not have a motor, they do not heat or overload
• Safe to use even in damp places and wet surfaces

The A461 is very popular in metal industries that have a huge volume of packing beams, pipes and steel coils. The A461 sealer is used along with the A452 pusher type tensioner that can provide very high tension that is essential for heavy loads of metal. It also gives a maximum tension of 1900 pounds.

The A461 sealer tool is very popular as it uses a seal with a double notch upcut seal joint for safety in a single stroke operation. The tool weighs 4.6 kg and is very light in weight. Its average seal strength is about 75%. A suspension bracket can be bought and it is optional. If a suspension bracket is needed for horizontal or vertical application then it has to be ordered separately.

Industry experts have always said that Fromm’s combination tool A483 is the most convenient tool that does all the three jobs of tensioning, sealing and cutting effectively and that too at the touch of a button. However, many industries continue to use some of the tools separately as per their convenience.
