Buy lashing strap: Woven disposable webbing by the metre in bags

Our lashing straps are supplied in lengths of 150m, 200m and 250m. The main areas of application are securing heavy goods on flatracks, in containers or on other load carriers. The appropriate lashing strap type is selected depending on the weight of the goods. The corresponding double web locks and lashing strap hooks are then selected to match the strap type. You can also find suitable lashing strap strapping tools in our load securing shop. We will be happy to advise you.

All our lashing straps for one-way lashing are certified by Germanischer Lloyd (DNV-GL). The breaking load in the system with our fasteners has been tested and confirmed in a laboratory.

Please note: When comparing products from different manufacturers, always check the breaking load information to see whether the system breaking load or the linear breaking load is specified. The system breaking load (i.e. with the seal in the strapping) is approximately twice as high as the linear breaking load (for the same strap type). This also applies to all strapping.

Areas of application for webbing by the metre

Lashing straps play a central role in modern load securing and export packaging of machines, drums, vehicles and much more, and are used in a wide variety of transport environments. Their main applications extend across various means of transport, with particular use in containers, on flatracks and other load carriers. This flexibility makes them an indispensable load securing device in the logistics and export packaging industry.

Use in containers and on flatracks

In containers, lashing straps provide stable anchoring of the load, preventing goods from shifting and being damaged during transport. On flatracks, they are used to securely lash larger and heavier goods, which is particularly important for shipping and export. Due to their high tensile strength and safety factor (a 4000dan / 4t strap will last approximately twice as long before breaking), lashing straps offer a reliable securing option.

Specific use in export load securing

In the export sector, lashing straps are an effective solution for securing loads. Their one-way nature makes them particularly suitable for export, where the return of reusable load securing equipment is often logistically complex and costly. Lashing straps offer a practical and cost-effective alternative here.

Endless webbing and its applications

Endless webbing is a key element in the world of lashing. These straps are designed to be packaged in 150m, 200m and 250m lengths in plastic bags, making them particularly efficient and easy to handle. The strap is pulled out of the bag and cannot twist as with strap from the roll. This feature is particularly advantageous for use in large packing yards and for

securing goods in containers and on flatracks where fast and reliable lashing is required. The endless webbing is not only a symbol of efficiency, but also of safety, as it minimises the risk of the load slipping or becoming loose. A safety factor of 2:1 provides a sufficient buffer and guarantees 100% load securing.

Features and types of webbing / lashing

At the heart of the lashing straps is the specially woven polyester. This material is characterised by its exceptional tear resistance, which makes it particularly suitable for the requirements of load securing. The polyester fibres are processed using advanced production and weaving techniques to ensure maximum stability and resilience. This ensures that they fulfil their function reliably under a wide range of conditions.

Various webbing lengths and widths

Lashing straps are offered in a variety of lengths and widths to meet different load securing needs. Typical lengths vary between 150, 200 and 250 metres (packaged as endless webbing in a bag), with the width of the straps often ranging from 30mm to 50mm. This variety allows users to choose the right strap for their specific requirements, whether for light or heavy cargo

Buying advice for lashing straps

Choosing the right webbing by the metre for specific load securing needs is crucial for an efficient and safe transport solution. Here are some important aspects to consider when making your choice. The choice of the right type of lashing strap depends on various factors, such as the weight and type of load to be secured. Lashing straps with higher tensile strength are suitable for

heavier loads, while straps with lower strength may be sufficient for lighter loads. It is important to select the strap according to the specific requirements of the transport to ensure optimum safety.

Accessories and complementary products for lashing straps

In addition to the lashing straps themselves, various accessories and complementary products are essential for effective load securing. These additional components (fasteners, hooks, tensioning devices) are part of the one-way lashing system with lashing straps and contribute to the safety of the lashing strap application.

Item number Product name For strap type
00000395 Manual strap tensioner HS40, suitable for textile straps and one-way lashing straps Fabric strap up to 40 mm
00000396 Manual strap tensioner HS19, Minimum contact surface 130 mm up to 19mm
00000397 Manual strap tensioner, for textile straps and one-way lashing straps up to 2500daN lin. Fabric strap up to 50mm
00000398 Manual strap tensioner HS25, for textile straps, minimum contact surface 130 mm Fabric strap up to 25mm

Lashing buckles or fasteners or double bar fasteners are part of the application of lashing straps. They enable a secure and reliable connection of the strap and ensure (e.g. as loop lashing) that the load remains firmly connected to the load carrier during transport. Tensioning devices, on the other hand, are necessary to tension the lashing strap. These tools are indispensable for using the one-way lashing strap load securing system.

Function and selection of suitable fasteners

The selection of the right fastener for lashing straps is another important aspect. Fasteners must take into account the strength and material of the lashing strap to ensure optimum securing. High-quality fasteners help to minimise the risk of the strap slipping and therefore secure the load more effectively. There is a corresponding double bar fastener (loop lashing) or hook (direct lashing) for every lashing strap thickness.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lashband

Below you will find important questions and answers about Lashband, woven one-way lashing webbing, polyester lashing webbing, and its use in professional cargo securing for container, export, and heavy-duty transport.

What is Lashband?

Lashband is a woven, single-use lashing webbing used to secure cargo. It is primarily used to secure heavy or bulky goods on flat racks, inside shipping containers, or on other load carriers. When combined with compatible buckles, hooks, and tensioning tools, it forms a strong one-way lashing system.

What is woven one-way lashing webbing used for?

Woven one-way lashing webbing is used when cargo must be reliably secured for transport and returning conventional reusable ratchet straps would not be economical or practical. Typical applications include export packaging, container loading, ocean freight, flat rack transport, machinery shipments, and industrial logistics.

When is Lashband more suitable than a conventional ratchet strap?

Lashband is particularly useful for one-way and export shipments where the securing material remains at the destination or does not need to be returned. It can be cut to the required length, making it ideal for varying package sizes, large cargo units, and customized cargo securing solutions.

What material is Lashband made of?

Lashband is generally made from high-quality woven polyester webbing. Polyester provides high tensile strength while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. The material is flexible, durable, and suitable for many professional applications in transport and export logistics.

What roll lengths are available for Lashband?

Depending on the product, Sandax Lashband is supplied in roll lengths of 150 m, 200 m, or 250 m. This provides sufficient material for multiple cargo securing operations. The webbing can be cut to the exact length required for each load directly at the loading site.

What widths of Lashband does Sandax offer?

Sandax offers Lashband in various widths, including 30 mm, 32 mm, 38 mm, 40 mm, and 50 mm. The correct width depends on the cargo weight, required load capacity, securing method, and accessories used. It is essential that the webbing, buckles, hooks, and tensioning tools are technically compatible.

What does breaking strength mean for Lashband?

Breaking strength describes the force at which the webbing or lashing system fails under defined test conditions. For Lashband, it is important to distinguish between linear breaking strength and system breaking strength. Linear breaking strength refers to the webbing itself, while system breaking strength considers the combination of webbing and a compatible buckle.

What is the difference between system breaking strength and linear breaking strength?

Linear breaking strength describes the tensile strength of the webbing material alone. System breaking strength refers to the strength of the complete lashing system consisting of Lashband and a compatible buckle. When comparing different products, it is important to check which value is specified, as system breaking strength can differ significantly from linear breaking strength.

Why is DNV GL certification important for Lashband?

DNV GL certification indicates that the Lashband or the system consisting of webbing and compatible buckles has undergone testing within the scope of the certification. This is particularly important for professional export, container, and heavy-duty transport applications, where cargo securing must be reliable, traceable, and properly documented.

What load capacities are available for Lashband?

Depending on the product, Lashband is available with different load ratings. The Sandax product category includes filter options for Lashing Capacity or load ratings of approximately 2,000 daN, 2,300 daN, 3,000 daN, 3,500 daN, 4,000 daN, and 6,000 daN. The appropriate product should always be selected based on cargo weight, mode of transport, and securing method.

What accessories are needed for Lashband?

To use Lashband, compatible buckles, such as double-bar buckles, are required, along with lashing hooks and tensioning tools depending on the application. Only when the webbing, buckle, and tensioning tool are correctly matched can the lashing system reliably achieve its intended load rating.

How is Lashband tensioned correctly?

Lashband is routed around or over the cargo, threaded through a suitable buckle, and tightened using an appropriate lashing tensioner. Once tensioned, the buckle keeps the webbing securely in position. The webbing should be routed straight, without twisting, and must not pass over sharp edges without suitable edge protection.

Can Lashband be used in shipping containers?

Yes, Lashband is well suited for container lashing. It can be attached to suitable lashing points and used to secure machinery, crates, pallets, industrial equipment, and other heavy goods. Particularly for export shipments, Lashband provides a cost-effective alternative to reusable ratchet straps.

Is Lashband suitable for flat rack transport?

Yes, Lashband is frequently used to secure heavy cargo on flat racks. Loads transported on flat racks often need to be protected against significant dynamic forces, shifting, and tipping. Depending on the cargo weight, a suitable high-strength Lashband with compatible buckles and hooks should be selected.

Can I buy Lashband directly from Sandax?

Yes, you can buy Lashband as woven one-way lashing webbing directly from Sandax. Standard continuous-roll Lashband products are available from stock. Compatible double-bar buckles, lashing hooks, and tensioning tools can also be purchased. For special sizes or custom-configured products, Sandax provides expert advice and tailored quotations.
