Flexible 16mm Tali Strapping PET 5120N No Crush Carton Packing Tali Plastik Strapping

Hello, I am the engineer who makes this strap, and I will explain it in plain language even if you are new to strapping. This 1608 is a soft, flexible PET strap: 16 mm wide and a thin, flexible 0.8 mm, sold 20 kg or 25 kg to a roll. It is made for light loads where you must not crush the goods — express cartons, daily-chemical products, textiles and light decorative materials. The idea is simple: the strap is wide but soft, so it hugs the carton gently and spreads the pressure over a big area instead of biting in. If you have ever opened a box and found the strap had dented or squashed it, this is the grade that fixes that problem.

This is a 1608 roll. It feels soft and flexible in your hand — that wide, gentle face is exactly what keeps it from denting the cartons it ties.

• Soft and Flexible: a thin, supple body that bends easily around cartons and is simple to tie by hand, so anyone on your team can use it.
• No Crush, No Indentation: the widened 16 mm flat face spreads the pressure intelligently, so cartons, plastic goods and light fragile items are not dented or squashed.
• Low-Tension Gentle Hold: designed to hold lightly without crushing, which is what e-commerce and light-goods packing needs.
• Strong Enough for Light Loads: a 5120 N breaking strength, roughly 520 kg of pull before it snaps — plenty for cartons and light bundles.
• Rust-Free and Burr-Free: being plastic, it never rusts and has no sharp edges, so it is safe for hands and will not mark goods.
• Embossed or Smooth: choose the embossed anti-slip surface for grip, or the smooth surface for anti-scratch — your call.

If you are unsure whether this is the right strap, here is the simple rule I give every new buyer. Choose the 1608 when your goods are light and easily damaged — express cartons, daily chemical finished products, textiles, light decorative building materials and warehouse pallet turnover. These are the jobs where a narrow, hard strap digs in and ruins the box, and the soft, wide 1608 is the fix. If your loads get heavy, such as bricks, machinery or steel, step up to our 19 mm or 25 mm straps; this one is meant for light, gentle packaging. Still not sure? Send me a photo of your goods and I will tell you honestly which size fits.

Every 1608 roll is made on our own line from high-purity new PET raw material. Running one recipe at volume is how I keep the softness and the strength the same on every roll.

If you are switching away from steel banding for the first time, here is the simple comparison:

In short: for light, delicate goods you get a gentle, secure hold — and none of the dents, rust or sharp edges.

This 1608 is the dedicated lightweight strap for express cartons, daily chemical finished products, textile goods, light decorative building materials and daily warehouse pallet turnover. It is widely used in e-commerce warehouses, daily factories and logistics distribution sorting, and it is the right pick for any low-tension, no-crush packing job.

Here is the 1608 doing its everyday job: banding e-commerce cartons tightly but gently, so the boxes arrive square and undented.

Even a soft strap has to be a reliable one, so every batch passes the same checks before it ships:

• Tensile testing: I pull a sample from each batch to confirm the 5120 N breaking strength and the 8%–12% soft-stretch range.
• Dimension inspection: width and thickness are measured to hold the 16 mm and 0.8 mm size.
• Surface inspection: every roll is checked for a clean, even finish with no rough edges or burrs, so it will not scratch goods.
• Weld strength check: the heat-sealed joint is tested to confirm weld efficiency of ≥85% of breaking strength.

Everything above is backed by a real, auditable company. We are Xiangyang Suhai Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd., founded in February 2011 in Hubei, China, and recognised as a National High-Tech Enterprise (Certificate No. GR202442006492, issued 26 December 2024, valid for three years). We were also selected for Hubei Province's 7th batch of Specialised, Refined, Differentiated and Innovative SMEs — official confirmation of our R&D capability rather than a self-declared claim. Our manufacturing is certified under quality, environmental and occupational health & safety management systems, and our products are supported by SGS test reports. Certificate copies and test reports are available on request for your file.

As the factory, we make the 1608 fit your brand and your line. You can customize the colour, the surface pattern (embossed anti-slip or smooth anti-scratch), the roll length and weight, and add a printed logo for brand-visualised packaging. Our complete PET strapping lines give a stable monthly output of 3000 tons, so large-volume and repeat orders stay on schedule against a 5 ton minimum. Each roll is wrapped in plastic protective film and stacked on wooden pallets for container or full-truck shipment, so it arrives clean and dry for long-distance shipping. Factory-direct supply keeps the price stable and affordable.

Finished rolls are stacked on pallets and wrapped for export — dry, protected and ready to run on your line the day they arrive.

Each roll is wound neatly on a core, so the soft strap feeds smoothly by hand or in an automatic or semi-automatic machine, with no tangles and no wasted strap.

• Q: What is PET strapping, in simple terms? It is a strong plastic belt, made from PET (the same material family as drink bottles), that ties your goods onto a pallet or into a bundle. It does the job of old steel banding but without the rust and sharp edges.
• Q: Will this strap dent or crush my cartons? No — that is exactly what it is designed to avoid. The wide 16 mm face and soft body spread the pressure, so light cartons and fragile goods are held without being squashed.
• Q: Is it strong enough? For light loads such as cartons, daily-chemical products and textiles, yes. Its breaking strength is 5120 N, roughly 520 kg of pull before it snaps. For heavy goods, choose our 19 mm or 25 mm straps.
• Q: Do I need a machine, or can I strap by hand? Both work. The 1608 fits automatic and semi-automatic strapping machines and also supports manual bundling, so you can start by hand and scale up later.
