Signode BXT2-19

The Signode BXT2-19 is a battery operated combination poly strapping tool designed for fast banding applications. It is designed for 5/8 and 3/4 inch polyester strapping. When used in automatic mode, it can pull the strapping to the pre-set tensioning and then welds and cuts it. And all of this takes just seconds to complete. Once the strap is welded, it will count down to zero (automatically) and then alerts with a beep sound.

This PET plastic strapping tool is designed for ease of use and highly effective and efficient operation. It can accommodate all kinds of load – ranging from light duty to heavy duty. It is capable of generating adjustable tensioning force up to a maximum of 880 lbs.

Technical Specifications

  • Strapping Type: Polyester Strapping
  • Strapping Size: 5/8 and 3/4 inch
  • Tensioning Force: 260 to 880 pounds (Light soft tensioning mode: 88-350 pounds)
  • Weight: 9.3 pounds (4.2 kg)

The Signode BXT2-19 is ergonomically designed for ease of application and reducing operator fatigue. The handle enables a tight grip so that the tool does not tip forward or backward when tensioning or sealing. It has a well-balanced design even for single-handle operations.

This battery operated poly strapping tool is ideally suited for applications involving difficult or tight strapping positions. It has a small interface that allows banding even coils and round packages. It can be used horizontally, vertically and upside down.

Features

  • Ergonomically designed for minimal operator fatigue
  • Simple 2-button or single-button operation in different modes
  • Designed for PET strapping of width 5/8 and 3/4 inch
  • Brushless motor technology for lesser wear and tool repair, and longer lifespan
  • Latest Bosch battery technology for reducing contact damage

Alternative Poly Strapping Tools

The signode BXT2-16 is designed for smaller-width polyester and polypropylene straps of width 1/2 inch and 5/8 inch. It can generate a peak tensioning force of up to 560 pounds.

The signode BXT2-32 on the other hand, is designed for larger sized polyester (PET) straps of width 1 inch and 1-1/4 inch. It is capable of generating highest tensioning force of up to 1,460 pounds, which makes it the perfect battery operated tool for heavy-duty applications.

Different types of accessories can be used with the Signode BXT2-19 to get the best from this battery-powered poly strapping tool. Choose this tool for its innovative technology, lesser wear and high level of efficiency.
