44、 will render the strapping suitable for application with tension tools of the feed wheel (friction) type (see 4.1.2 and6.1.4). The lubrication of the strapping is intended to facilitate the use of strapping tools in which the two bands of the strappingare held in contact with each other under pressu

45、re by frictional grips, and sliding of the faces of the strapping is necessary duringthe tensioning operation. Test in accordance with 13.9.8.4 Type 1 Strapping, CoilsEach coil shall consist of one continuous piece of strapping. Coils with lengths of strapping weldedtogether shall be considered as o

The width of strapping at the weld shall be subject to the same dimensional requirements as the remainder of thestrapping and must be straight with no o

47、ffsets or angular alignment Metal splattering or extruded points causing increasedthickness are not permissible. Only machine welds shall be acceptable.TABLE 6 Size of Coils and PackageType Coils Size of Strapping,in. (mm)Inside Diameter,in (mm)(CommercialTolerance)OutsideDiameter,max,in. (mm)Coils
