LOKBAND® offers superior protection for components packaged in tape and reel. The band fastens to the outer edges of either a 13″ or 22″ reel, preventing the flanges from crushing together during dry-pack or handling. The LOKBAND® also keeps the reel from unwinding if the protective wrap on the carrier tape detaches. The LOKBAND® fits most 12mm, 16mm, 24mm, 32mm, 44mm and 56mm wide 13″ or 22″ diameter reels. It is secured around the outer reel edge by snapping the edge together with an attached clip.
Configuration
The LOKBAND® is available in lengths designed for use with either a 13″ or 22″ diameter plastic reel. Lengths are 1,035mm (40.75″) for a 13″ reel and 1,750mm (68.90″) for a 22″ reel. The width of the LOKBAND is dependent upon the width of the reel being used. The LOKBAND® for use with both 13″ and 22″ reels are available for EIA standard carrier tape widths from 12mm to 56mm. (Note: 12mm and 16mm are not available for 22″ LOKBAND®.)
