Grip Pack 114 – Steel Strapping Sealer
Signode is a very innovative manufacturer of strapping tools. The Grip Pack 114 sealer is a very popular battery operated sealer used in many industries for high tensile strapping. This is the first battery operated sealer of its kinds for 1 ¼” steel strapping.
The Grip Pack 114 sealer runs on the lithium ion battery and can place about 200-300 seals per battery charge. This tool is not much different from other sealing tools. When the tool is placed over the seal and the trigger gets pulled, the joint gets sealed in a smooth manner. The joint gets securely sealed. Some new improvements have been made to the Grip Pack sealer. A new sensor has been fixed and this can detect steel strapping and the sealer will not misfire throughout the application procedure.
The Grip Pack 114 sealer is also a very light weight tool and designed ergonomically. This helps in relieving operator fatigue. As it is light in weight the operator easily carries the tool along with others and the work gets done faster. As it is a battery operated sealer, it does not have pneumatic air lines which run all around the work room floor and hinders the work of the operator.
This is a very fast tool, but it is not as fast as the pneumatic RCNS2-114 pneumatic sealer, according to some of the users in the industry. Also, in comparison with pneumatic tools, batter tools have lesser inconsistency.
