Fresh Water/Waste Water Treatment and Irrigation Applications

In the water treatment and irrigation environments, stainless steel banding is used for hose fitting-fabrication, pipe securement and pipe/cable/hose bundling applications.  Stainless banding is also used for pipe patches and filter media clamping applications.  The disaster recovery industry also benefits from the versatility and strength of stainless banding when fabricating large volume-diameter hose assemblies.  

Type 201 and 300 series stainless are typically adequate in these conditions.  Stainless buckles and wing clips are used to secure the banding together. The PMB 101 Ratchet Tensioner and PMB 001 Crank Tite Tensioning tools are also used depending on the application and tension level required. Stainless buckles are used when the tension requirements are high with the heavier .030” thick banding. Wing seals are used with .015” to .025” thick 300 series stainless banding.  The higher tension Crank Tite PMB 001 is typically used with stainless buckles and the PMB 101 Ratchet Tensioner is used with wing seals. Stainless banding offers a long service life and a strong secure, versatile, non toxic, flame resistant, uv resistant, temperature resistant and corrosion resistant method of securement.
