Description
Ease of use and speed of application are the hallmarks of the Tackstrap®.
We developed this strap for large commercial and government projects. The Tackstrap® hammers into a parallel lodge pole, or post, after using a "figure-eight" around the tree. No wire is needed to employ this Flexable, non-stretch guying collar. Among others; Caltrans, Flordia D.O.T., Arizona D.O.T., PA D.O.T., New York D.O.T. all specify or allow for the use of Original Treestrap® products on highway projects.
Made from Environmentally Friendly Natural Cotton.
The webbing used in our production is manufactured domestically under ISO 9002:1994 standards, to meet Mil-W-530 Ty III, Class I. This spec requires use of virgin cotton fiber to meet strength and use requirements. The use of recycled cotton fiber would seriously reduce tear strength.
It is recommended that the tree straps be adjusted or removed after root growth has stabilized the tree. If the guying collars are to remain, for what ever reason, the natural cotton fiber will biodegrade and compost, ultimately leaving only the brass grommets or tack fastener to remain.
Our production is "state of the art", energy efficient, electronic equipment, using only clean compressed air. The sheer cutting of material is done with collection filtration and is properly vented. The screens are cleaned and cotton fibers are composted. There are no oils or hydraulics used in the process and no wastewater to treat. All scraps of cotton are composted and used in our gardens.
