Description
The side action sealer 32mm double notch is a heavy-duty manual hand tool built to create secure, repeatable double notch closures on 32mm steel strapping. Sold under the Pac-King HD brand and listed as a direct equivalent to the Mip-3100-114, this tool suits operations already running that model – no retraining required and no changes to existing workflow.
Key Features of the Side Action Sealer 32mm Double Notch
Designed for demanding industrial and packaging environments, the side action sealer 32mm double notch delivers high-integrity strap joints across sustained, high-volume sealing operations. The features below reflect what makes it a dependable choice for 32mm steel strapping work.
- Double notch action: Punches two interlocking notches through the seal and strap layers in a single operation, producing a joint that resists tension and movement.
- Side action handle orientation: The handle is positioned to the side of the tool, making it well suited to confined spaces or situations where working against the side of a large load makes front-action or overhead tools impractical.
- Heavy-duty construction: Built for repeated, high-volume use in industrial settings, providing controlled and consistent sealing force across many cycles.
- 32mm steel strapping compatibility: Sized specifically for 32mm steel strap – the width commonly specified for heavy or dense loads.
- PN-3257 seal compatibility: Works with PN-3257 seals. Keeping adequate seal stock on hand before beginning high-volume runs is recommended to avoid interruptions.
- Equivalent to Mip-3100-114: A recognised direct substitute, allowing operators familiar with the Mip-3100-114 to transition without any change to tooling procedures.
- Manual operation: Requires no pneumatic or electric power source, making it fully portable and usable wherever the load is located.
How It Works
To use the side action sealer 32mm double notch, first tension the steel strap to the correct level using a separate tensioner. Once tensioned, position an open PN-3257 seal around the overlapping strap ends. Place the tool over the seal and operate the side action handle to press and notch the seal closed. The double notch mechanism drives two notches simultaneously through the seal and strap layers, locking the joint in a single action. This tool completes the joint only – tensioning is always carried out beforehand with a dedicated steel strap tensioner.
Typical Applications
The side action sealer 32mm double notch is well suited to bundling and unitising heavy industrial goods where 32mm steel strapping is the specified banding material. Typical applications include steel beams, timber packs, pipe bundles, brickwork pallets, and other dense or bulky loads. It is commonly used in steel fabrication yards, sawmills, building materials distribution, and general freight and export packaging where load integrity is critical. Because it is a manual tool with no power requirement, it suits operations where portability is important or where reliable power access at the point of strapping cannot be guaranteed.
For a complete manual 32mm steel strapping setup, the Pac-King Steel Strap Dispenser 32mm pairs naturally with this sealer, providing a controlled feed of 32mm steel strap from coil. Ensure PN-3257 seal stock is sufficient before beginning high-volume runs to keep operations running without interruption.
