System strength describes the performance of the assembled strap-and-buckle configuration and should not be confused with the linear breaking strength of the strap alone. The buckle type, joint configuration and applied tension can affect complete system performance.
KYA currently publishes two different 13mm composite cord strap configurations. Both are listed at 1100m per coil, but they have different strength ratings.
| Width | Code | Linear Break | System Strength | Coil Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 13mm (1/2") | Composite 40 CC/2 | 200 daN | 320 daN | 1100m |
| 13mm (1/2") | Composite 40 CC | 300 daN | 480 daN | 1100m |
Do not select the two 13mm versions interchangeably. Specify the required strength class and confirm the matching buckle and tensioning method for the application.
The following product-family specifications are published by KYA for composite cord strapping. Strength requirements should be matched to the selected strap and buckle system.

| 13mm (1/2") | Composite 40 CC | 300 / 480 daN | 1100m |
| 16mm (5/8") | Composite 50 CC/2 | 285 / 460 daN | 850m |
| 19mm (3/4") | Composite 60 CC/2 | 380 / 610 daN | 750m |
| 25mm (1") | Composite 85 CC/2 | 785 / 1260 daN | 500m |
| 32mm (1-1/4") | Composite 105 CC/2 | 1000 / 2000 daN | 350m |
The paired strength values are published as product-family data. Buyers requiring a specific tested system strength should confirm the applicable strap, buckle and test configuration before purchase.
Ask About Strap Strength Options
Composite cord strapping is manufactured from polyester fibers held together within a polymer coating. KYA identifies the outer coating as polypropylene, which adds protection to the polyester fibers and helps the strap during handling, threading and tensioning.
The polypropylene-coated polyester construction also provides added resistance to moisture compared with untreated fiber products. Actual suitability should still be checked against the storage environment, temperature, chemicals and transport conditions.
Flexible Construction: Polyester composite strapping can conform around irregularly shaped compatible loads.
No Steel Strap Edges: The non-metallic strap avoids the sharp cut edges associated with steel strapping.
Low Strap Weight: Composite polyester strap is relatively easy to carry and handle during manual strapping operations.
Re-Tensioning Capability: Wire-buckle systems can allow re-tensioning where the selected buckle and load configuration permit it.
Polyester Strap Does Not Rust: The strap itself does not form metallic rust, although metal buckles still require suitable corrosion protection.
Long Coil Length: The 13mm configurations are published at 1100m per coil.
Composite polyester strapping can replace steel strapping in suitable unitizing and cargo-securing applications, but it should not be treated as a universal strength-for-strength replacement for every steel strap.
The correct choice depends on the required system strength, load movement, edge conditions, temperature, transport method and applicable securing requirements. Where the load has sharp corners, use appropriate edge protection to reduce the risk of strap damage.
13mm composite strapping can be used for light-to-medium industrial bundling and load-securing applications where the selected strength class meets the required securing specification.

Cargo securing where the selected strap-and-buckle system satisfies the required securing load
For container, flat-rack or other transport-securement applications, calculate the required securing forces and verify the complete system rather than selecting the strap by width alone.
Composite cord strapping is joined using a compatible wire buckle. The buckle width, wire size and surface treatment should match the selected strap and required system strength.
Because system strength is determined by the strap-and-buckle combination, changing the buckle can affect joint efficiency and overall securing performance. Confirm the correct buckle specification when ordering the 13mm strap.
The strap should be tensioned with equipment suitable for the selected composite strapping width and construction. Manual tensioners are commonly used with 13mm composite cord strap, while tool selection should follow the strap and equipment specifications.
Apply sufficient tension to secure the load without exceeding the limits of the strap, buckle or packaged product. After tensioning, verify the buckle engagement and overall load stability.
The current KYA product information identifies Germanischer Lloyd certification for the composite strapping product offering. Where certification is a purchasing or transport requirement, request the current supporting document before ordering.
Confirm that any certificate or test report applies to the exact strap model, strength class, buckle combination and intended application required by the project.
KYA states that its factory has produced composite cord strapping since 2003 and exports to the USA, EU, Australia, Canada and more than 50 countries. The source page lists a 15–25 day delivery estimate; confirm whether it covers production, transit or both for the destination and order quantity.
The current KYA product information lists custom printing as available and lists a purchasing MOQ of one pallet. Buyers requiring printed strapping should provide the required artwork, print content, quantity and packaging requirements for confirmation.
Current order quantities, printing requirements and production arrangements should be confirmed when requesting a quotation.
KYA publishes both Composite 40 CC/2 at 200/320 daN and Composite 40 CC at 300/480 daN. Select the version according to the required securing performance.
System strength depends on the joint. Use a buckle matched to the 13mm strap and selected strength class rather than selecting the buckle only by approximate width.
Determine whether the load has sharp or abrasive contact points and use suitable edge protection where necessary.
Confirm that the selected tensioning tool accepts 13mm composite strapping and can apply the required tension for the chosen strap-and-buckle system.

KYA describes the product as polyester composite strapping with a protective polypropylene coating.
The featured Composite 40 CC configuration is published at 300 daN linear breaking strength and 480 daN system strength when used with a suitable matching wire buckle.
Yes. KYA also lists Composite 40 CC/2 at 200/320 daN. Both 13mm versions are published with 1100m coil length.
Both published 13mm configurations are listed at 1100 meters per coil.
For the featured Composite 40 CC configuration, 300 daN refers to the strap's published linear breaking strength and 480 daN to the complete system strength when used with the appropriate buckle. Confirm the applicable test configuration when system strength is a purchasing requirement.
Composite polyester strapping can replace steel in suitable applications, but not in every securing situation. Compare complete system strength, temperature, load edges, load movement and transport requirements before changing from steel strapping.
The polyester and polypropylene strap itself does not form metallic rust. Wire buckles are metal components and should be selected according to the expected corrosion environment.
The polypropylene coating provides added protection against moisture, but outdoor suitability depends on exposure duration, temperature, chemicals, sunlight, buckle selection and the required service conditions.
A wire-buckle composite strapping system can allow re-tensioning where the buckle, tensioner and load configuration permit it. This can be useful for loads that settle after initial securing.
Use a wire buckle designed for the 13mm composite strap and the required system strength. Provide the selected strap configuration when requesting matching buckles.
The current KYA product information lists an MOQ of one pallet. Confirm the current pallet configuration and purchasing quantity when requesting a quotation.
KYA's current product information lists custom printing as available. Provide the required print content, artwork and order quantity for confirmation.
KYA's current product information identifies Germanischer Lloyd certification. If certification is required for purchasing or cargo securing, request the current supporting documentation and confirm that it applies to the exact product and system configuration being ordered.
