Invented by Power Smith Ltd. and now part of the Carrington Wire Product portfolio, QUICKLINK is the first name in baling technology.Imitated the world over, these original, strong, reliable bale ties are capable of packaging all types of expanding materials.
Engineered to accomodate the demands and expansion stresses of fibrous materials such as synthetic fibre, wool, cottom, etc., and baled products for the recycling industry handling plastics, tyres, paper, cardboard and textile scrap, QUICKLINK holds the materials powerfully to its compressed volume, making it easy and safe to weigh, handle and transport.
Engineered and tested for breaking stress and elongation, QUICKLINK ties withstand the expansion pressures of the compressed materials while in transit and perform consistently in both the machine and manual applicaton of wire to the baled substrates.
Prescision formed for ease in application, each tie has a smooth surface and there are no shape edges to cut through the package.The pressure on the package can be monitored, as the knot gives a visual indication of the tension.
Strong & Reliable
Available in Coppered, Phosphate and “Galcron” finished, QUICKLINK baling ties perform consistently to sustain the pressure of the compressed material at all times.
Coppered and Phosphate finished products are used where bales are to be stored in enclosed warehouses.They are typically used for cardboard, paper, textile waste and other applications where the bale is covered prior to the straps being applied.
“Galcron” finish is used to provide corrosion resistance in applications where the wire is applied directly to the substrate material.Use of “Galcron” finish reduces the financial risks associated with contamination of packed material due to rust.
“Galcron” finish is an electro galvanic coating that plates a combination of alloys onto the wire to provide enchanced corrosion protection. Unlike dip galvanising, “Galcron” finishes are bright, exceptionally zinc dust during storage and handling.
Preventing Staining & Discoloration
Purity of color is a significant factor in many applications. Staining caused by a chemical reaction of substrates with the ties under high humidity can be a significant problem for many industries.
To combat this, Carrington has developed “CottonProtect” and “NoStain”; two durable, hardwearing finishes, colored to enable the operator to identify the fully finished ties easily.
Safe to Handle
QUICKLINK ties are made up of non-hazardous, high tensile steel for manual and machine application. Manufactured to precise tolerance requirements, their optimum bearing strength is reliably known.
Care should always be taken in handling wire and wire products are operators should wear safety glasses and gloves. Wire ends can cause cut and puncture wounds and contact between wire ends and unprotected skin must be avoided.
Baling ties are high tensile, straightened and shaped wire which will spring back when bent or formed. Always cut from the side.
Saving Time & Money
QUICKLINK ties are very economical compared to other baling options. The locking operations need no special tools and baling can be carried out very quickly and effectively without using specialist equipment.
The end loops are specifically formed to link effectively by pressing together, either manually or by machine.
