Some models have the capacity to perform over 5,000 ties per charge with two wraps. A slim arm ensures tight ties and a brushless twisting and feeding motor helps prolong the machine’s life.
A good rebar tier can tie mesh and bar with a total diameter of 12-40mm or 30-60mm. A lightweight design makes it easy to transport, hold and use without straining the arms, hands, wrists, shoulders or fingers.
