Ear-lokt Stainless Steel Banding Buckles

< >

Ear-Lokt Stainless Steel Banding Buckles are robust and reliable fastening components designed to provide a strong, permanent clamp when used with stainless steel banding. These buckles feature distinctive "ears" that are crimped down over the tensioned banding using a specialized tool, creating a secure, vibration-proof connection. Manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, Ear-Lokt buckles offer excellent resistance to corrosion, weathering, and extreme temperatures, making them ideal for demanding applications in industrial, marine, oil and gas, and municipal settings. They are commonly used for securing hoses, cables, signs, insulation, and for general bundling and fastening where a durable and long-lasting hold is critical.

Product Details

Features

Strong, Permanent Lock: The "ear" locking mechanism, when properly crimped, provides a secure and irreversible mechanical lock that resists loosening due to vibration or stress.

Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Manufactured from various stainless steel grades (typically 201, 304, or 316) to match the corrosion resistance of the banding being used, ensuring longevity in harsh environments.

Durable Construction: Designed to withstand significant tension and environmental stresses without failure.

Vibration Proof: The crimped ears create a tight seal that is highly resistant to loosening caused by vibration.

Easy to Apply: Used in conjunction with standard banding tools (tensioner and hammer or integrated tool) for efficient and reliable installation.

Versatile Applications: Suitable for a wide range of fastening, clamping, and bundling tasks across various industries.

Clean Appearance: Provides a neat and professional finish to the secured assembly.

Matched System: Designed to be used with corresponding stainless steel banding for optimal performance and strength.

Tamper Resistant: The permanent nature of the crimp provides a degree of tamper resistance.

Technical Data

Material Grades: Type 201 Stainless Steel (Good strength, moderate corrosion resistance, economical); Type 304 Stainless Steel (Excellent corrosion resistance, good strength, widely used); Type 316 Stainless Steel (Superior corrosion resistance, especially against chlorides and marine environments, premium option)

Compatible Banding Widths: 1/4"(6.4 mm), 3/8"(9.5 mm), 1/2"(12.7 mm), 5/8"(16.0 mm), 3/4"(19.0 mm), 1"(25.4 mm), 1-1/4"(32.0 mm).

Compatible Banding Thicknesses: Designed to work with standard stainless steel banding thicknesses, typically ranging from 0.015"(0.38 mm) to 0.030"(0.76 mm).

Buckle Material Thickness: Varies by buckle size and intended load, typically designed to complement the strength of the compatible banding.

Locking Mechanism: Dual "ears" designed to be hammered down or crimped with a specialized tool over the tensioned band.

Quantity: Typically sold in boxes of 50, 100, or larger bulk quantities.

Application Tools: Applied using a tensioner tool to pull the band tight and a hammer to flatten the ears, or an integrated tensioning and crimping tool.

Industry Standards: Conform to relevant ASTM or other industry specifications for material and performance.

Finish: Typically a natural stainless steel finish.
