Signode’s Unit Strap Lifting Method (USLM) solutions for Bulk Cargo Transportation |
| USLM SYSTEM The Signode USLM (Unit Strap Lifting Method) system permits the lifting and handling of unitized loads with specialized USLM strapping. The method is used to lift and position break-bulk cargo into and out of the holds of ships, reducing loading and unloading time. USLM strapping encircles the load to become an integral part of the lifting system. This eliminates the need to position and subsequently remove slings or other lifting hardware, thereby reducing time and labor requirements. The USLM system has been used successfully on a variety of bulk cargo, including bales of wood pulp, plywood, lumber, logs, and metal products such as aluminium ingots, copper cathodes, and zinc slabs. |
 |
| SAFETY The Signode USLM system utilizes Signode tensioners, sealers, strapping, and seals in conjunction with user supplied lifting gear. All components work together to ensure that loads can be lifted safely. Signode USLM lifting recommendations maintain a 4:1 safety factor to meet or exceed all known requirements of port authorities. Ultimate care should be taken to ensure that the lifting is done by only USLM straps and not the packaging straps. |
 |
| STRAPPING There are significant differences between Signode USLM grade Magnus® strap and other grades of strap. The USLM strap has a lower elongation and higher break strength compared to standard strapping. The USLM Magnus strapping is marked according to thickness & is wound on continuous coils with no production welds. All USLM strapping is marked with groups of 2 circles, 3 circles, or 3 circles plus the letter “M” to designate strap thickness and lifting capacity. The letter “S” in each circle designates Signode as the manufacturer. |

| USLM MICROGRIP SEAL Using the proper type and quantity of seals is critical for the safe application of the USLM system. Signode USLM Microgrip seals are coated inside with a high friction grit material to provide maximum joint strength. |
