Frequently Asked Questions About the P404
The P404 is compatible with both Polyester (PET) and Polypropylene (PP) strapping, in plain and embossed finishes. It handles strap widths of 15.0-16.0 mm (5/8″) and thicknesses from 0.50-0.90 mm (.020-.035″).
The P404 achieves approximately 70% seal strength using serrated seals and a patented sealing force balance system. This ensures consistent, reliable joints that won’t fail during transport or storage.
No. The P404 is designed for ease of use with an intuitive operation that requires minimal training. The sealing handle always operates until it hits the stop, eliminating guesswork and ensuring proper seal formation. The windless tensioning system is straightforward and doesn’t require complex setup, making it ideal for both experienced operators and new staff.
The P404 weighs just 3.8 kg (8.4 lbs) without the suspension bracket, or 3.9 kg (8.6 lbs) with the optional suspension. This lightweight design significantly reduces operator fatigue during extended strapping operations, making it comfortable to use throughout full work shifts while still delivering professional-grade performance.
Yes. The P404 is designed to be service-friendly with a robust construction that minimizes downtime and maintenance requirements. Its straightforward design means that when maintenance is needed, repairs are faster and more cost-effective compared to complex automated systems. The tool’s durable build quality ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments with minimal intervention.
Yes. The P404 is versatile and can be used for both vertical and horizontal strapping applications. For standard vertical strapping operations, use the tool as-is. For horizontal applications, the optional suspension bracket (Item P40.2046) with grip ball and bolt provides optimal positioning and control, making it easy to strap loads from different angles and orientations.
