Stainless Steel Banding
At Band-N-Go, we supply high-quality stainless steel banding designed for secure fastening, mounting, and bundling in industrial and infrastructure applications. Stainless steel banding, sometimes referred to as stainless steel strapping or stainless steel straps, is widely used for attaching equipment to poles, bundling cables, securing insulation, and mounting signs or hardware.
Our banding products are engineered for strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability, making them suitable for indoor, outdoor, and harsh environmental conditions.
Types of Stainless Steel Banding
Band-N-Go supplies several grades of stainless steel banding to suit different duty levels and operating environments.
- Type 201 Stainless Steel Banding: Commonly used for general fastening, it is available in medium duty (.030 inch, .76 mm thickness) and heavy duty (0.044 inch, 1.1 mm thickness) versions. Type 201 stainless steel banding is frequently used in infrastructure installations such as securing traffic signals, signs, and pole line hardware. This grade provides strong performance while remaining a cost-effective option for many projects.
- Type 304 Stainless Steel Banding: Typically used for light-duty general fastening applications, including holding insulation jackets and cladding. It provides reliable corrosion resistance for standard indoor and outdoor environments.
- Type 316 Stainless Steel Banding: For installations exposed to moisture, salt, or chemicals, this option offers enhanced corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in marine environments and subterranean applications where durability in harsh conditions is required.
Coated Stainless Steel Clamping Bands
Band-N-Go also offers coated Type 316 stainless steel banding for applications where enhanced protection is required. Coated stainless steel banding can provide additional corrosion protection, cushioning, and a clean finished appearance for exposed installations.
- PVC Coated Banding – PVC coating provides cushioning, additional corrosion protection, and dielectric insulation. It is well suited for outdoor applications and operates effectively in temperatures ranging from approximately -40°C to 85°C.
- PPP (Polypropylene) Coated Banding – PPP coating is halogen-free and can be used both indoors and outdoors. It performs well in temperatures from -20°C to 90°C, making it suitable for a wide range of installations requiring coated band clamps.
- PPA (Polypthalamide) Coated Banding – PPA coating is halogen-free and designed to operate in temperatures from -40 C up to 150°C.
Banding Hardware and Fastening Options
Stainless steel banding systems include compatible hardware to ensure a secure installation.
Common fastening options include:
- Tiger Teeth Buckles – typically used with medium-duty and heavy-duty banding
- Wing Seals – commonly used with light-duty or coated banding
- Seals – used for light-duty banding applications
Additional fastening options such as screw buckles, worm drive seals, and bolt clamps may be used for temporary or permanent fastening depending on the installation requirements. For sign and fixture installations, Band-N-Go supplies stainless steel mounting brackets complete with stainless steel bolts and washers.
Compatible Tools and Accessories
To ensure proper installation, Band-N-Go supplies a variety of professional grade banding tools to address any application. Using the correct tensioning and cutting tools helps ensure a consistent and durable fastening result.
