A461: Fromm’s Great Pneumatic Sealing Tool

The strapping industry runs smoothly because of useful tools designed and developed by companies like Fromm. In heavy industries, packaging is very important as the goods being shipped can get damaged without proper packing. Fromm has developed state-of-the-art tools that have become indispensable to the strapping industry. One such tool is the A452, a pneumatic tensioner that can be used in combination with the Fromm A461 sealer.

Fromm has always made tools of all shapes and sizes, in manual, battery, pneumatic, semi-automatic and automatic styles. They also keep improving existing tools to keep up with the changing needs of the strapping industry. The A461 is a sealer for steel strapping that can be operated single handedly and applies an up cut double-notch seal.

  • Tensioning : to be used with A452 tensioner
  • Weight: 4.2kg / 9.3 lbs

Advantages

  • The double notch joint is achieved in a single strike
  • Seal safety mechanism prevents poor seal joints
  • Has two working versions N and P, N being at right angles to the handle and P being parallel to the strap

The tools from Fromm are user friendly and an operator can single handedly manage strap applications. The A-461 should be paired with the A452 tensioner for easy sealing while packaging goods. This combination of tools is very good in the packaging of timber, beams and pipes which have a long diameter but a small surface area.

The A461 is considered the strongest sealer among pneumatic tools by industry experts as it pulls close to 1900 pounds of tension.  Also this sealer is popular because of its safety mechanism that prevents any defective seal joints that occur due to the faulty operation by a tool operator. The A461 is available with a suspension bracket and a spring loaded balancer. This is greatly recommended by regular users of this tool for strapping applications.

The light weight of the tool is also a great advantage to workers who do not hesitate to carry the tool around in the work place. There is also another tool, the A483 which is also a great option for workers. This tool is a combination tool, with tensioner sealer and cutter rolled into one. This three-in-one job is performed at the click of a button.
