Fromm P329 Battery Powered Plastic Strapping Tool
The Fromm P-329 is a battery-powered tool for plastic strapping of width 5/8 inch to 3/4 inch. This lightweight strapping tool can be used for strapping both polyester and polypropylene straps. It generates up to 900 pounds of tension. It delivers friction weld seal with very high reliability. It features latest technologies and interactions. It is easy-to-use and quick and can help you complete strapping tasks that were difficult or impossible.
Ease of Use
The Fromm P-329 is perfectly suited for strapping round and small loads. It features a better single-base design. This allows the battery tool to be used in tight spaces. There is minimal risk that it will get stuck after the strapping it pulled tight. This makes it easier to use. In other tools the separate base makes it impossible to open and remove. You can use these battery tools for plastic strapping in tight spots without worrying.
Another new development in the P329 is that it no longer has the lever found in the earlier models. This helps in simplifying the tool cycling process. Press the tension button and the strap will be pulled tight. The tool will reach the set tension automatically and then weld and cut the strap. You can also use it in manual mode and use the second button for the welding and cutting process.
