Itipack ITI84 Battery Powered Tensioner
The ITI84 is a battery powered feed wheel push type tensioner for steel strapping to secure round or irregular shaped packages. This banding tool is typically used in steel mills and metal service centers. The battery lets you lose the airline trip hazard, and gives mobility. The ITI84 is generally used with a battery powered sealer (ITI85 click to link). The ITI84 is well balanced, which is an improvement over the main pneumatic tools (PN2-114 and A452).
To eliminate the use of two tools to complete the strapping process, we recommend using a faster combination tool which tensions, seals, and cuts all in one tool. The best combination tool for 1 1/4" steel banding is the battery powered Kodiak, which replaces the common combination pneumatic Signode PRHR-114 or A483 steel strapping tools. Combination tools are a heavier, but also about 3 times faster. If the combo tool weight is too heavy, splitting the tensioner and sealer makes them a few pounds lighter.
Competitive tensioner tools are the Golden Bear STB, and the Signode Grip Pack 114 Tensioner.
