Specification Sheet
• Wraps your loads in half the time of
banding or strapping
Highlight Handwrappers are fast and consistent. A load which would take
three or more minutes to strap or band can often be stretch wrapped in
1.5 minutes.
• Self-tightening if contents try to
work loose
Odd sized or irregular shaped loads won’t vibrate loose becuase each
layer of stretch lm bonds to the next for added strength.
• Loads stay clean and dry
A top to bottom wrap will keep your products free of dirt and moisture so
the arrive with a much better appearance.
• Doesn’t damage your product
Film has no sharp edges to cut workers, crush packages, or mar
products.
• Helps stop product theft
The clarity of the lm and tight bond makes it difcult to remove products
undetected.
WRAPS YOUR PALLETIZED LOADS SAFELY, SECURELY, AND AT A SAVINGS
DIRECTIONS AND STRETCHING METHODS PREMIUM FEATURES
Place roll over steel shaft and onto bottom core holder so
lm feeds out in a clockwise direction. Screw in tension
control assembly until top core holder comes in contact
with lm and initial resistance occurs. This is free-wheeling
position.
Hereafter, each 1/4 turn of the handle clockwise increases
tensions and lm stretch. After reaching desired stretch,
assembly will remain in that position, giving you accurate
and consisten wrapping

Stretch Method 1:
Spiraling
Tucking the lead wrap
between the pallet and bottom
box, start spiraling around the
boxes in an upward direction,
overlapping the lm by 25%.
Once reaching the top, stretch
lm about 4” over top corners for vertical hold-down; then
start spiraling back down.
Stretch Method 2:
Top Banding
For lighter, more stable loads,
simply wrap the top third,
applying lm where the layers
come together. This increases
the stability of the load and
saves lm. This method gives
twice the security of using lament tape for top banding.
Stretch Method 3:
Roping
An excellent way to wrap for
produces and other products
that need circulation is to rope
the pallet. Tie a knot in the
lm and secure under box on
pallet. Unwrap one pallet-width
of lm using your free hand to
loosely compress lm into a rope. At edge of pallet use free
hand to pull on rope and provide stretch. Tension rope off
aroun corner of pallet and repeat procedure on next side.
Roping may be run under bottom or over top corners of
pallet for added vertical security.
Cast Zinc Base
Zinc casting has an accuracy and atness
that cannot be matched by welded steel,
and won’t chip, dent or bend. It is surface
ground at, preventing uneven wrap
and wasted lm. Hihglight’s broad base
resists tipping, minimizing cuts and tears.
It’s cast web design adds support to
stress areas while removing exess metal,
keeping the weight of the wrapper at only
3.5 lbs.
Comfort Handle
The Highlight handle is bent at a 33°
angle to make wrapping at the bottom of
a pallet easier. It also allows a grip nearer
the center of gravity for less operator
fatigue. The handle is also covered with
a slip, soil, and abrasion resistant grip.
The handle is press tted to the base so
it stays in place, and a roll pin acts as a
safety check to prevent vertical slipping.
Bottom Core
The bottom core holder recieves all the
weight and pressure during wrapping,
and must operate smoothly. The
Highlight bottom core holder is zinc cast
in a cavity/web design for strength and
long life, while the o-ring secures it place
while changing lm rolls.
Tension Control Assembly
This entire assembly has been designed
for presise operation. Once the core
holder is engaged, there is 1.5 turns of
knob adjustment between free roll and
maximum stretch. Six quarter-turns give
you a full, graduated measure of lm
stretch. It has the strength, control, and
precision to wrap your loads securely and
economically.
