| Strip-LOK™ Model Information |
| |
Strip-LOK™ Joiners are available in four models, General Purpose (blue), Heavy Gauge (red) and Long Reach (green) and the Long Reach Heavy Gauge: |
| |
| General Purpose Strip-LOK™ Joiner
This unit is used for most common joining operations. It is characterized by it’s light weight at only 11.8 kg and by it’s compact size. It is the most economical unit and is capable of dealing with most strip tear-off situations. Although it is limited to a maximum strip thickness of 0.7 mm thick soft iron, this is sufficient to deal with the majority of strip tear-off situations. |
|
| Heavy Gauge Strip-LOK™ Joiner
This unit is capable of joining two layers of 0.9 mm thick soft iron. Strip tear-off at heavier Gauges becomes relatively un-common. This unit is as compact as the General purpose Strip-LOK™ Joiner. |
|
| Long Reach Strip-LOK™ Joiner
Designed for wide strip, the long reach unit has a reach of 300mm from the strip edge. It is not necessary to have individual joins across the entire width of the strip. Considerable stability is created in a joint of two overlapping sheets via a reasonable overlap region in the order of 700mm or more. This unit can be used to join strip widths up to 1500mm. |

New! Long Reach Heavy Gauge Strip-LOK™ Joiner
This unit has the same heavy duty capabilities of the HG unit combined with the extended reach of the LR model capable of joining two layers of 0.9 mm (.035”) thick soft iron. This unit has a reach of 300mm (11.8”) The Strip-LOK™ Sheet Metal Joiner is a portable strip-joining machine driven by compressed air. The main use for Strip-LOK™ joiners is repairing strip tear off situations on modern steel strip processing lines such as continuous galvanizing and paint coil coating lines. This is the best advance in economical efficient and effective strip joining equipment in over three decades. Already used by major US, Canadian and Australian steel manufacturers, the Strip-LOK™ Sheet Metal Joiner is highly appreciated and valued. |

Air Supply:
Air supply pressure should be between 600kPa and 760kPa (85 – 110 PSI), filtered, dry and lubricated. A supply pressure of 700kPa is recommended to obtain the capacities as listed below.
Metal Limits:
As the supply air pressure increases, so too does the capacity of the Strip-LOK™ Joiner to join thicker sheets. As a general rule the following specifications apply for the four models: |
