TABLE REFERENCE
Strapping break strengths are listed as averages. Always use linear break when calculating break strength. Refer to the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM D3950) minimum break strengths for package design/safety factor purposes. All measurement, size, footage, tensile, thickness, are nominal measurements based on an average measurement made on a number of samples. Variation in measurements are due to standard manufacturing practices. For proper strapping selection, contact your ASC sales representative
F = Fully Automatic, S = Semi Automatic, H = Hand Grade
If you do not see the size you are needing, please Contact a Sales Representative
