FAQs
How many cable clips are included in the pack?
The pack contains 100 cable clips.
What color are the cable clips?
The cable clips are grey.
Can these clips be used on painted walls?
Yes, they can be used on painted walls, provided the surface is smooth and clean for optimal adhesion.
Are these clips suitable for outdoor use?
These clips are designed for indoor use. Exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures may affect their performance and adhesion.
How do I remove a cable clip?
Gently peel the clip off the surface. For stubborn adhesive, you can try warming it slightly with a hairdryer on a low setting before peeling.
Can I reuse a cable clip after removing it?
Once removed, the adhesive may lose its stickiness, making reuse difficult without re-adhering with a new adhesive solution.
What is the maximum cable size these clips can hold?
The clips are designed for standard-sized cables. Very thick or heavy cables may not fit securely.
Troubleshooting
Cable clip not sticking firmly
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Reapply pressure firmly. If adhesion is still poor, the surface may not be suitable, or the adhesive may have lost its tackiness.
Cable falls out of the clip
Check if the cable is too thick for the clip's opening. Ensure the clip is securely fastened to the surface. For larger cables, consider using multiple clips or a different cable management solution.
Adhesive leaves residue or damages surface upon removal
This can occur on certain surfaces. For removal, try gently warming the adhesive with a hairdryer on a low setting before peeling slowly. Clean any residue with an appropriate adhesive remover suitable for the surface type.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Identify the location where the cable needs to be secured.
- Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease for optimal adhesion.
- Peel off the backing from the adhesive pad on the cable clip.
- Firmly press the clip onto the chosen surface and hold for a few seconds.
- Once adhered, gently place the cable into the clip and secure it.
Compatibility:
These clips are generally compatible with most common household and office cables, including power cords, USB cables, network cables, and audio cables. They are best suited for smooth, non-porous surfaces such as painted walls, wood, metal, and plastic. Avoid using on textured wallpaper, fabric, or delicate surfaces where the adhesive might cause damage.
Care:
To clean the cable clips, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the adhesive or the clip itself. If a clip loses its adhesion, it may be necessary to replace it with a new one, ensuring the surface is properly prepared.
