The A480 is a lightweight (4.5kg) pneumatic steel strapping tool designed specifically for small bundles, tubes, coils, and narrow packages. It uses single-notch overlapping seals and provides 2500-4500N tension force for strapping widths of 10-19mm.
A480 is an Ideal pneumatic steel strapping tool for strapping tubes, wire coils and all kinds of small bundles, it is a handy and popular tool in the industry. Since its is light weight it does not necessarily have to be suspended which makes mobile operation easier. A480 is also available in two different tensioning levels.
Ideal for small bundles, such as pipe and tube
All-in-one tension, seal, and cut
Robust and reliable
Long life wear parts

The A480 is a pneumatic pusher-type combination steel strapping tool designed for strapping bars, bundles, pipes, coils, and packages with small surfaces. It's ideal for applications requiring portability and precision in manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and logistics operations.
The A480 supports strapping widths of 10.0-19.0mm (3/8 to 3/4 inches) and thickness of 0.38-0.63mm (0.015 to 0.025 inches). It works with Uniflex strapping up to 850 N/mm² (123,000 psi) and Ultraflex high-tensile strapping up to 1100 N/mm² (160,000 psi).
The A480 weighs 4.5kg (9.9 lbs) without suspension and 4.6kg (10.1 lbs) with suspension. Its lightweight design makes it highly portable and suitable for both mobile and stationary operations with optional spring-loaded balancer suspension.
The A480 is available in two tension configurations: 2500N (560 lbs) with 180mm/sec tension speed, or 4500N (1000 lbs) with 100mm/sec tension speed. This allows operators to choose between faster strapping with lower tension or higher tension for demanding applications.
The A480 achieves approximately 75% average seal strength with single-notch overlap seals. The recommended seals are 22mm long with 0.6mm thickness and have a tensile strength of 600 N/mm² (87,000 psi).
The A480 is available in 8 models covering four strapping widths (10mm, 13mm, 16mm, 19mm), each available with either 2500N or 4500N tension. Models include A480/10, A480/13, A480/16, and A480/19, with each width available in both tension configurations.
The A480 uses single-notch overlap seals. Recommended seal dimensions are 22mm length x 0.6mm thickness, with widths matching the strapping: 10mm, 13mm, 16mm, or 19mm depending on your strapping width.
Yes, the A480 can be used for both mobile and stationary operations. For stationary use, it can be suspended on a spring-loaded balancer using the included suspension bracket for standard and vertical applications, or the optional A48.1304 suspension bracket for horizontal and vertical applications.
Uniflex is regular duty steel strapping with a maximum tensile strength of 850 N/mm² (123,000 psi), suitable for standard applications. Ultraflex is high-tensile steel strapping with a maximum strength of 1100 N/mm² (160,000 psi), designed for heavy-duty applications requiring maximum holding power. The A480 works with both types.
