Product Overview
Galvanised steel fixing band with a 12mm width and 10m length. Manufactured from pre-galvanised mild steel, this perforated band provides a flexible and secure strapping solution for light to medium-duty fixing applications.
The zinc coating provides corrosion resistance for interior and outdoor sheltered use, while the evenly spaced holes ensure quick, flexible positioning for installation versatility.
The band's 12mm width provides a narrow profile suited to smaller or less load-bearing fixings where flexibility and control of tension are key.
Features & Benefits
- Corrosion-resistant coating: Zinc-galvanised finish protects the steel against rust and oxidation for long service life.
- Flexible strapping design: Perforated format allows bending, looping, or securing around irregular shapes or surfaces.
- Pre-punched holes: Evenly spaced for convenient screw or bolt fixing without the need for drilling.
- Versatile compatibility: Suitable for use with a wide range of fasteners, including woodscrews and coach bolts.
- Stable under tension: Steel maintains consistent hold under moderate to heavier load without deformation.
- Application suitability: Narrow width provides precise control for lighter or more delicate fixings where flexibility is essential.
Applications
- Pipe and duct support: Used to secure small-diameter pipes, ducts, or conduits to walls or frames.
- Cable restraint: Provides adjustable fastening for light cable management or conduit alignment.
- Timber restraint: Useful for bracing lightweight wooden sections or temporary supports.
- Repair or reinforcement: Ideal for strapping or reinforcing non-structural connections.
Installation Guidance
- Cut to length: Measure and cut the required band length using tin snips or aviation cutters.
- Position and align: Wrap or place the band around the item to be fixed and align the holes to the substrate.
- Secure fixings: Insert screws, bolts, or nails through pre-punched holes and tighten evenly.
- Check tension: Ensure band is taut and secure, avoiding over-tightening which could deform the metal.
Compliance & Performance
- Material specification: Cold-rolled mild steel to BS EN 10346 with GZ275 galvanised zinc coating.
- Corrosion protection: Complies with standard galvanisation requirements for general construction use.
- Temperature range: Suitable for environments between -20°C and +60°C without performance loss.
- Important note: Always select fixing bands appropriate to load requirement and environmental exposure.
