Band-It® clamping bands are precision constructed of 300 Series SST/Passivate, and designed for use with Band-It® Hand Banding Tool or the Pneumatic Banding Tool.
The bands are offered in the following four configurations to suit a wide range of requirements: Double-wrapped, the Standard Band will accommodate diameters up to approximately 1.8 inches. The Extended Length Standard Band when double-wrapped will accommodate diameters up to approximately 2.5 inches (63.5mm). The Micro Band will accommodate diameters up to approximately .88 inches (22.5mm) when double-wrapped. The Extended Length Micro Band will accommodate diameters to approximately 1.88 inches (47.8mm) when double-wrapped. All Band-It® clamping bands may be ordered flat or precoiled in bagged and tagged quantities from 1 to 100. |
The BAND-IT® clamping system provides quick, easy, cost-effective and highly reliable termination of braided metallic shielding or fabric braid. Banding technology was first introduced in our industry in 1985 as a solution to the field repair of magnaformed shield terminations on installed cable assemblies for the B-1 bomber. The first planes were due to roll out when problems with electrical cables caused a line stoppage. Banding has been a staple of the industry ever since.
Reliable RFI/EMI/EMP Terminations
The unique low profile and smooth inside diameter of the one-piece type 304 austenitic stainless steel clamping band virtually eliminates RFI/EMI/EMP leakage paths. The lock maintains constant tension under extreme environmental conditions. BAND-IT® has passed severe shock, vibration and thermal cycle testing with negligible deterioration of shell conductivity.
Single Piece Band Construction
No welding, soldering, magna forming, and no crimping! The clamping bands provide quick, easy and cost-effective shielding terminations. (Note: Bands must be double coiled.)
Clamp Small Diameters Easily, Reliably
Double-wrapped, the clamping band is designed to clamp small diameters as easily, quickly and reliably as large diameters.
Quick, Easy Field Terminations with the Precalibrated Hand Tool
The precalibrated hand tool is lightweight and pocket-sized, affording fast braided RFI/EMI/EMP shield termination in the field.
Pneumatic Banding Tool for High-Speed Mass Production
The pneumatic clamping tool offers the capability to tackle high volume braided shielding terminations quickly and easily.

| Band-It® Pneumatic Banding Tools are offered in two designs, each of which can be enhanced by Band-It's optional foot pedal kit to free both of the operator's hands to help assure more accurate, reliable and faster shield terminations. The Standard Tie-Dex II® Pneumatic Banding Tool accommodates standard clamping bands in a tension range from 100-180 lbs. The Tie-Dex II® Pneumatic Banding Tool accommodates micro banding clamps in a tension range of 50 to 80 lbs. Each lightweight tool weighs only 2.52 lbs. (91.14 Kg); the control boxes weigh only 2.74 lbs. (1.24 Kg) each.
Band-It® Hand Banding Tools are offered for both standard (100-180 lbs. tension range) and micro (50 to 85 lbs tension range) banding clamp termination. The lightweight tools (1.18 lbs.) are conveniently pocket-sized. Band-It hand tools may be ordered separately or as components in complete field tool kits which include a tension gauge, calibration key, cutters, and replacement parts, all packed into a compact foam-padded carrying case with an operator's manual. |
