Corner Protector Poles & Edge Safety Tools

Edge protectors are placed along the vertical or horizontal edges of a package or pallet, then secured with stretch wrap or strapping. For pallet loads, position one protector at each corner before applying stretch film or banding. For individual packages, apply along box edges before strapping to prevent strap bite and corner crush.

Take 2 Direct stocks edge protectors in light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty ratings. Light-duty suits lighter parcel shipments; medium-duty handles standard distribution freight; heavy-duty is designed for high-load pallets and demanding LTL or OTR applications where maximum corner and stack reinforcement is required.

Edge protectors are available in 100% recyclable paperboard made from recycled fiber content, and closed-cell foam. Paperboard options come in varying calipers (0.120 in to 0.225 in thickness) for different load requirements. Foam edge protectors are ideal for high-value or fragile finished goods requiring cushioned surface protection.

These are printed paperboard edge protectors that allow companies to display logos, handling instructions, or branding directly on the corner protection — a popular choice for consumer goods manufacturers and premium shippers.

Standard leg widths are 2 in, 3 in, and 4 in, with thicknesses ranging from 0.120 in to 0.225 in and lengths available up to 96 inches or more. Custom cut-to-length options are also available, allowing you to match edge protectors precisely to your pallet height or package dimensions.
