Pacmasta Strap Feeder

Description

The under pallet strap feeder rod 1350mm (model SF-135) from Pacmasta is a practical hand tool designed to thread strapping beneath a loaded pallet without crouching, reaching awkwardly, or repositioning the load. The operator feeds the strap onto the rod and guides it under the pallet until it emerges on the opposite side, ready for tensioning and sealing with existing equipment.

Key Features of the Under Pallet Strap Feeder Rod 1350mm

• 1350mm rod length – sized to clear the underside of standard pallets in a single pass, eliminating the need to reposition the load or the operator mid-feed
• Pack of 10 rods – allows multiple operators or strapping stations to each hold a rod, reducing downtime caused by a single shared tool being unavailable elsewhere on the floor
• Composite construction – provides the rigidity needed to push the rod forward while retaining enough flex to deflect slightly around uneven floor surfaces or irregular pallet bases without snapping
• Broad strapping compatibility – works with PET (polyethylene terephthalate), Poly, and Cord strapping types across a wide range of widths commonly used in industrial and commercial packaging operations
• No workflow changes required – once the strap has been fed through, it is tensioned and sealed using whatever manual or battery-powered strapping tools are already in use at that station

How It Works

Using the SF-135 under pallet strap feeder rod 1350mm is straightforward. The operator attaches the strapping to the rod, then pushes it beneath the pallet so the strap travels cleanly from one side to the other. The 1350mm length is designed to accommodate standard pallet footprints, providing enough reach to complete the pass without stopping. The composite construction handles minor deflection around uneven floors or irregular pallet bases without compromising the feed. Once the strap emerges on the far side, it is ready to be tensioned and sealed with existing equipment – no additional tools or changes to the strapping setup are needed.

Typical Applications

The under pallet strap feeder rod 1350mm suits any setting where palletised goods need to be secured with strapping passed beneath the pallet. Common environments include distribution centres, freight and logistics operations, manufacturing facilities, and retail despatch areas. It is particularly useful where pallets are fully loaded and cannot easily be lifted or tilted to thread strapping by hand. Because the SF-135 is compatible with PET, Poly, and Cord strapping, it integrates into most existing strapping setups without requiring a change of strap type or sealing equipment. Stocking a pack of 10 means each workstation can hold its own rod, keeping operations moving without operators waiting on a single shared tool.

For a more organised pallet strapping workstation, the Pacmasta Strap Dispenser for PET pairs well with the under pallet strap feeder rod 1350mm, keeping coils feeding smoothly and reducing handling time between strapping runs.
