It is of particularimportance, for both safety and satisfactory performance, that the user informs the

6、 strapping supplierof all intended uses and usage conditions that may differ from industry custom and practice or fromintended strapping applications. Likewise, the user needs to inform the strapping supplier of anypractice of the users carrier that the user believes may differ from any requirement

7、or recommen-dation of the carriers association or of any applicable ASTM or regulatory provisions. The user alsoshould inform the strapping supplier of the following expected conditions: load, unit, or packagecharacteristics (rigid, expanding, shrinking, or combination); severity of handling; nature

8、 of transportequipment; storage conditions (stacking height and weight); exposure to environmental conditions;extreme temperatures (particularly if prolonged outdoor exposure is anticipated); exposure tochemicals; exposure to abrasive surfaces; and exposure to sharp or pointed objects that can cause

9、nicks, scratches, or holes in the strapping. There are other materials not covered by this guide, whichmay also offer acceptable solutions or may be used in conjunction with flat strapping to provideacceptable solutions for the users intended application. Examples of accessories, such as, edgeprotec
