Long handled Ergo ratchet with 600mm tail and standard claw fitting 5t
10m 5t strap with standard claw fitting
£9 per set and £15 carriage from Strap master last year. Perfect length for square bales, so will be ok for rounds if they’re 4ft stacked like bean cans.

Yep, I allways buy 12m ones and you end up with about 2m of tail once the strap is tight.
If you buy too long you can allways shorten them but if too short you’re buggered.

Chuck a bit of baler band in the end to lengthen it.[emoji1419]10m strap over 3 high bales, it's a good foot too short

Personally I’d go for 10m. Not all bales are equal and sometimes they need pulling together. Assuming they’re perfect you need 7.2m plus hooking them on (20cm each side?) so 7.8m which doesn’t give much slack.

Hope your not going to put that on the rope hook10m strap over 3 high bales, it's a good foot too short

No, of course not.
It's too short, so the baler twine extension goes on the rope hook
