A Signode battery hand tool for PET and PP strap. You insert the strap with the EasyTrigger™ trigger, and the tool does the tensioning, friction welding and cutting. There are three models for strap from 9 to 19 mm, all running on a Bosch 18 V battery (AMPShare®).
The models differ in strap width and tension force. The housing, battery, charger and operation are the same, so anyone who has used one model can use any of them.
Cartons, smaller packages and lighter pallets. The lightest in the range.
Pallets of paving blocks, bricks, timber and steel products. The model most often found in warehouses and production.
Heavy and tall loads, building materials, structural timber. For thick PET strap.
Full technical data, noise, vibration and kit contents: BXT4 specifications.
The BXT4 has replaced the BXT3 series. Strap insertion has changed (EasyTrigger™ trigger) and so has the panel: instead of buttons there is a colour touch screen that shows the tension force and the number of strapping cycles left until the next inspection.
You insert the strap by pulling the trigger under the handle with one finger. The tool is well balanced, which you notice especially when strapping vertically.
Li-Ion 4.0 Ah from the AMPShare® system, charges in 48-65 min. Good for 300 to 1000 strapping cycles, depending on the model and tension force.
The tension wheel, toothed plate and cutter are made of hardened tool steel or sintered metal. The BXT4 is made in Switzerland and has DEKRA certification.
Shows the tension force while you work, uses colours to show the tool status and errors, stores a second set of settings and counts the strapping cycles until the next inspection.
The trigger (called the activator in the manual) lifts the tension unit. You insert two layers of strap and release the trigger, and the strap is clamped. If the strap is not pushed fully in, the unit will not drop all the way and tensioning cannot be started. After welding, the same trigger releases the tool from the strap.

Signode recommends an inspection every 2 years or every 80 000 strapping cycles, and the BXT4 reminds you about it on the screen. In Świebodzice we carry out inspections and repairs of the BXT4, BXT3 and older Signode strapping tools, as well as Strapex, Orgapack and Cyklop tools.
The strap is inserted with the EasyTrigger™ trigger under the handle. Instead of buttons there is a colour touch screen that shows the tension force while you work, warns about incorrectly inserted strap, stores a second set of settings and reminds you about inspections. Power: Bosch 18 V 4.0 Ah battery (AMPShare®). Strap widths are the same as on the BXT3-13/16/19, so you can keep using your current strap.
Polyester (PET) and polypropylene (PP) strap. BXT4-13: 9-10 and 12-13 mm, BXT4-16: 12-13 and 15-16 mm, BXT4-19: 15-16 and 18-19 mm. The width is changed by replacing the four strap guides. The strap type is selected on the screen; with PP the tension wheel starts more gently and the tool gets less dirty.
According to Signode, at low tension up to 1000 cycles (BXT4-13) or 800 (BXT4-16 and BXT4-19), at high tension about 600, 400 and 300 respectively. With the GAL 1840 CV charger the battery charges in 48-65 minutes.
The manual only allows the Bosch batteries and chargers specified by Signode (Li-Ion 18 V 4.0 Ah, GAL 1840 charger). With a different battery the tool will show error E11 or E24. We also sell the battery and charger separately.
Most errors (E20-E25, E50-E57) are caused by the battery, temperature or a dirty tension wheel. Each code is described on the Maintenance and error codes page. A jammed welding unit is released with the screw at the back of the housing (Torx T20). If the error keeps coming back, the tool needs to go in for service.
