MBT bands have a patented ball-locking system that allows the band to be locked in any position along its entire length. They are available in both 316 and 304 stainless steel options. MBT bands are typically used for work in challenging conditions or where particular chemical resistance, fire resistance, temperature resistance, or high tensile strength is required. They are used in all industries, from mass transit and shipbuilding to oil refining and mining, and even in exhibition installations. Metal bands are also used to secure cables and wires to prevent them from falling and blocking evacuation routes in the event of a fire.
