Cordstrap® Polyester
Lashing is available in 2 main
variations.
Cordstrap® Composite
Lashing (LC), similar to Cordstrap® Composite
Strapping, is the latest technology in flexible, non-metallic lashing
and most commonly used. Cordstrap® Composite
lashings are available in a variety of widths and strengths up
to 5,000 DaN (11,000 lbs).
Composite lashings are widely used to secure cargo in trucks, railcars
and ISO containers for various commodities including, but not limited
to, chemicals, machinery, paper reels and food goods.
Breaking strengths of all composite lashings are independently
certified by Germanischer Lloyd’s and adhere to European
Railway regulations. In addition, Cordstrap® CC
105 is approved by the American Association of Railroads for use
in closed car load restraint applications.
Cordstrap® Woven
Polyester Lashing (CW) is increasingly used to secure cargo in
excess of 100 metric tons. Manufactured from high tenacity polyester
yarn, Cordlash® woven
lashing replace conventional load-restraint products like heavy
duty steel strapping, wire rope, chains, ratchet straps and greatly
reduces or eliminates the need for wood blocking and bracing.
The webbing structure makes
the lashing very flexible and easy to work with, even in confined
spaces.
Cordlash® is
extremely safe to use, and the shock absorbance characteristics
are superior to any other load securing materials. This shock
absorbency feature keeps the lashing secure through the most
rugged transit.
Cordlash® woven
lashings are closed
by specially developed hooks and bucklehooks, and tensioned
with a manually operated tool or pneumatic tools. They are
often used in combination with friction enhancing anti slip
mats for added security.
Cordlash® woven
lashings are accepted and approved by many shipping lines and
marine insurance surveyors. They adhere to the regulations
of the International Maritime Organization, the European Railways
and other regulatory bodies.
