In South America’s booming logistics and industrial packaging sectors, steel strapping is not just a commodity — it’s a strategic asset. As infrastructure, mining, and manufacturing grow across Brazil, Argentina, and other countries, the steel strapping market is expanding rapidly.
For many heavy-load applications — from coil transport to construction materials — high tensile steel strapping becomes essential. This is because it provides both high strength and the security needed to restrain bulky or shifting cargo.

Before diving into manufacturers, it’s important to grasp what “steel strapping” really means — and how variants differ:
Regular-duty strapping: More rigid, lower cost, less elongation. Good for stable loads.Tensile Strength: 830 – 880 MP.
High-tensile (HT) strapping: Higher strength, and depending on the design, can include high elongation to absorb shock.Tensile Strength: 930 – 980 MPa.
Juhong Steel strapping strictly complies with the Meet Chinese (GB), European(EN), American(ASTM) standard, ensuring industry-leading reliability and safety for industrial and logistics applications.and Juhong's UltiMax™ High Tensile (HT) Series steel strapping is engineered for the most demanding heavy-duty applications, directly comparable to the performance standards set by industry leaders like Signode Magnus and USLM.
| Series | Standard | Tensile Classification | Tensile Strength(MPa) |
| Terra / Ridge | GB/T 25820-2025 | Regular Tensile | 650-750Mpa |
| Pivot / Duro | GB/T 25820-2025 | Medium Tensile | 830-930Mpa |
| Nexa | GB/T 25820-2025 | High Tensile & Low Elongation | 980Mpa |
| Ultimax | ASTM D3953 or EN 13246 | High Tensile & High Elongation | 1020Mpa |
Coated finishes: Painted & waxed, blue-tempered, galvanized — these matter for corrosion resistance, handling, and friction.

Choosing high tensile steel strapping over standard or cheap “regular-duty” straps isn’t just a technical decision — it’s a business decision. With greater break strength and elongation, you reduce the risk of strap failure, damage claims, and re-shipment. That’s why savvy B2B buyers in the strapping market look for steel strapping suppliers who can deliver high-performance straps, not just the lowest cost.
Painted steel strap
Zinc-coated steel strap
Painted steel strapping (black) is widely used in applications where scratches or edge abrasion could be a concern.
Zinc coated steel strapping on the other hand, provides enhanced corrosion resistance. The zinc plating acts as a protective barrier, helping to mitigate rust — especially in humid or exposed environments.
Juhong’s zinc-coated steel strapping is designed with a self-healing zinc layer that protects scratched surfaces and offers ≥ 10% elongation
Juhong also supply 2 inch wide steel strapping band, matching key customer demand for larger, heavy-duty bundles. In addition, our product range includes specific dimensions such as 1/2″ × 0.020″ steel strapping and 3/4″ × 0.023″ steel strapping, to meet the precise needs of different packaging or transport setups.


To fully leverage high-tensile steel straps, proper tools and equipment are critical. As a full-service strapping supplier, Juhong supports:
Tensioners for steel strapping — to apply the correct pre-tension reliably
Steel strapping equipment — including semi and fully automatic heads
Steel strapping kit — for customers who prefer a bundled solution (strap + tensioner + seals) for ease of procurement
At Juhong, we don’t just make strong straps — we make smart straps. Our UltiMax™ line combines high tensile strength with high elongation, which is a powerful combo. Unlike cheap, rigid strapping that snaps or loses tension, our high-elongation steel strapping behaves almost like a spring. It stretches slightly under stress, absorbs shocks, and holds tension even when levels shift.
Imagine strapping like a shock absorber in a car — instead of rigidly holding everything, it flexes a little to take the hits. This is especially critical when dealing with the vibrations and jolts of long-distance transport.
Quality isn’t just a promise — it's certified. Our UltiMax™ high elongation steel strapping meets:
ASTM D3953-15: The U.S. standard for flat steel strapping.
EN 13246: The European standard defining mechanical properties like tensile strength and elongation.
These certifications aren’t just for show — they ensure consistent performance, batch by batch
If you're familiar with the heavyweights in strapping — think Signode Magnus or USLM — you know what gold-standard performance looks like. Our UltiMax™ straps offer comparable strength and elongation, but at a more competitive cost. As noted in our technical specs, our straps can reach a tensile strength of ~1020 MPa.
We're not just satisfied with EN and ASTM. Juhong is actively pursuing AAR (Association of American Railroads) certification to meet the most stringent global shipping needs. AAR-approved strapping is critical for rail transport — especially in high-stakes markets.
Once approved, our bands will bear the AAR mark, signaling to customers that they meet rigorous safety and performance standards.

Let me be blunt: choosing cheap, rigid strapping to save a few bucks per roll can backfire. Why? Because low-quality straps may snap, lose tension, or damage the cargo. That means:
Product damage: Broken straps = crushed corners, broken goods.
Liability risks: If a shipment arrives damaged, who's paying for it?
Re-shipment costs: Sometimes you have to repackage, resend — doubling your freight costs.
That's not saving money — that's gambling with risk.
By contrast, investing in Juhong’s high elongation steel strapping gives you a real ROI:
Slightly higher cost per meter, yes — but you need fewer straps because of our superior break strength.
Fewer claims for damage.
Less labor on rework.
Better delivery reliability = happier customers + fewer surprises.
Think of it as buying better insurance: you spend a bit more upfront, but save a lot more in headaches, losses, and time.
