What is the purpose of strapping?

The purpose of strapping is to secure, stabilize, and reinforce goods during storage or transport. Strapping, also known as banding, involves using materials like plastic (e.g., polypropylene or polyester), steel, or other types of straps to hold items together and prevent them from shifting, separating, or being damaged. Here are some key purposes of strapping:

Securing Loads: Strapping keeps packages or bundles tightly together, ensuring they stay in place during handling, storage, and transit.

Improving Stability: It helps stabilize products on pallets or in stacks, which prevents them from tipping over or becoming unbalanced.

Preventing Damage: By keeping items tightly bound, strapping reduces the risk of individual items becoming damaged from movement or impact.

Bundling Items Together: Strapping can bundle multiple items together for easier handling, especially smaller items or units that need to stay grouped.

Enhancing Safety: Properly strapped goods reduce hazards in warehouses, vehicles, or workplaces by minimizing shifting and potential accidents during transportation.

Tamper Resistance: Strapping can act as a tamper-evident measure, allowing handlers and recipients to identify if a package or bundle has been opened or tampered with during transit.

Strapping is commonly used in industries like shipping, manufacturing, construction, and logistics, where securing loads is crucial for safety and product integrity.

@some-sort-of-ecologist Eep, missed this!

I've got a rechargable 1000lumen noname LED lamp that i probably paid ~30USD for. It is pretty good! Decent range. Looks like this:

sorry if i might be misinterpreting ur post but: so its Not just me that gets a little bothered by how suddenly hyped up strap/packing bulge is in lesbian spaces then??? like i swear i used to have to be hyper vigilant about if my dick was visible or not & had an irrational fear of being labelled a sex pest if i ever had like morning wood during a sleepover or something & now suddenly so many tme's are out openly thirsting over plastic dick prints??? like i Guess i'd prefer other dykes openly like a bulge than act the way my paranoia insists they would; but it all just feels a bit eyeroll inducing & irritates me a bit... idk...

as someone who’s had a cis ex eagerly refer to mine as a ‘bio strap’, i do get you (especially with the hypervigilance, mood), but my frustration was less with ppl being centered on ‘strap’ as uniquely lesbian compared to other phalluses and more with the growing comfortability non-transfems build for only addressing and recognizing trans women by their dicks while not working on their other internalized transmisogyny.

like i myself am someone who generally isn’t that bottom dysphoric but what that’s gotten me is great experiences from my love life such as getting chided for perceived male socialization before being made to top by a lesbian ex again (because why would someone like me want or have different sex), or the general fact that it wasn’t until like, last year that i got to experience some explicit compliments and touches for the first time on my breasts and my body that weren’t just about my dick or otherwise typically ‘masculine’ things like my muscles (especially silly given that im just skinny and barely have any musculature). and my partners were all lgbt, several of them trans in various ways! but this didn’t stop them from taking my general comfort with my body as an excuse to hone in on my dick without fear of repercussion.

i feel like a lot of people act like being gay or trans inherently makes you deconstruct/be better about gender, and they might be better about people similar to them, but often they still wind up treating trans women like ‘different’ men and carry matching expectations as such. sometimes it’s more subtle or sometimes it’s obvious like when lesbians will sometimes use us to experiment with bisexuality, but it still happens and people hate to talk about it lol. and we don’t have to get into the frustration i feel for people being like that re: strap ons while still being weird about other kinds of dicks, as if plenty of nb people and transmascs don’t see their strap ons as extensions of themselves and as their dicks through this way, but i do feel it, lol.

I just saw the Pru & NyoPru gift for Ame art and ngl now I just need to see Ame railing them both with triplets

Bold of you to assume that Julchen won’t be the one breeding them both - trust anon, her seed is potent enough to bless them both with a litter 🤞

kevin should get to suck the strap. as a Treat

kevin has more plastic in his mouth on the daily than a turtle. amen

What is the difference between polyester and polypropylene strapping?

Polyester and polypropylene strapping are both used for securing packages and loads, but they have distinct characteristics and are suitable for different applications. Here’s a comparison of the two:

1. Material Properties

Polyester (PET) Strapping:

Strength: Generally stronger and more durable than polypropylene. It has high tensile strength, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.

Elasticity: More elastic, which allows it to handle expansion and contraction of the load without breaking.

UV Resistance: More resistant to UV degradation, which makes it suitable for outdoor use.

Polypropylene (PP) Strapping:

Strength: Typically less strong compared to polyester. It’s better suited for lighter loads and less demanding applications.

Elasticity: Less elastic, which can make it more prone to breaking under stress if not used correctly.

UV Resistance: Less resistant to UV light, so it may degrade faster if exposed to sunlight.

2. Usage

Polyester (PET) Strapping:

Applications: Ideal for securing heavy loads, including palletized goods and items with irregular shapes. Commonly used in industries like construction, steel, and manufacturing.

Temperature Range: Performs well in a wide range of temperatures, making it versatile for various environments.

Polypropylene (PP) Strapping:

Applications: Suitable for lighter to medium-weight applications, such as carton bundling and small package securing. Often used in the packaging industry and for securing consumer goods.

Temperature Range: Less effective in extreme temperatures compared to polyester.

3. Cost

Polyester (PET) Strapping:

Cost: Typically more expensive due to its higher strength and durability. However, the long-term performance can justify the higher cost.

Polypropylene (PP) Strapping:

Cost: Generally more cost-effective and budget-friendly, making it a good choice for lower-cost applications where extreme strength is not required.

4. Environmental Impact

Polyester (PET) Strapping:

Recyclability: Polyester is recyclable and can be repurposed into other products, which is beneficial for sustainability.

Polypropylene (PP) Strapping:

Recyclability: Polypropylene is also recyclable, but it may not be as widely accepted in recycling programs as polyester.

5. Ease of Use

Polyester (PET) Strapping:

Handling: Can be more difficult to handle and requires specialized equipment for tensioning and sealing.

Polypropylene (PP) Strapping:

Handling: Generally easier to handle and work with, and can often be used with simpler tools.

In summary, polyester strapping is preferred for heavy-duty, high-stress applications due to its strength and durability, while polypropylene strapping is suitable for lighter, cost-effective packaging needs.

So one of my toes is either mildly sprained or badly bruised. But I don't see any bruising and it is swollen to almost twice its size so I'm leaning towards sprained. Also it hurts to touch it. Or look at it. Or think about it. Ow.

i hate my welding teacher and theres soo much tine between my morning hvac class and the welding class at 1:30 cuz my first class is basically like. if your group finishes with a car early and theres no other cars to look at you can just leave so my group got out like an hour and a half early so im just sitting around dreading going to welding cuz the teacher is a huge dick. i understand why hes a dick and welding is very serious and if you dont take the equipment seriously and understand what you're doing it could have major consequences. but hes an asshole about it though

[superficialspacecadets]

husb & i walked by our straight male friend who I have very much been at odds with lately on the way to our dinner date & he texted the gc to tell me/our friends that I “looked fire emoji in that dress” and my ego has never been more fed in my life lol

he is self-professed only into “cute girls” (his ex looked 10 years younger than she was and weighed about 110) and I am plus sized and very much consider myself a woman who looks her age - I would lowkey be horrified if he was actually *attracted* to me, but it’s nice to be told I’m hot (because I am!)
