Band-It Clamping system is the premium name in load banding. The Band-it clamping system consists of steel straps and Band-it banding tool. Used by lumber yards, contractors, and anyone needing to band loads to pallets, etc. They're even used by yacht owners (they buy Band-it's stainless steel bands, and we hear it's to secure loads 'below', and as emergency repairs to a cracked mast, etc.).

The moral of the story is that Band-it's clamping system is not a limited tool. It's used by artists, the US Military, truckers, and anyone needing a simple, reliable method to absolutely bind something with a steel (or stainless) strap.
