Product Information

Full details

The Unicrimp Miniature Cable Ties (QT100M) are ideal for users needing to bundle and secure small cables or wires. Their key benefit is a durable, one-piece construction that eliminates the risk of metal part failure. A potential caveat is their miniature size, which may not be suitable for larger or heavier gauge cables.

FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the QT100M cable tie?

The Unicrimp QT100M cable ties measure 100mm in length and 2.5mm in width.

Are these cable ties suitable for outdoor use?

While made of durable nylon, prolonged exposure to harsh UV rays and extreme weather conditions may degrade the material over time. For long-term outdoor applications, consider UV-resistant cable ties.

Can these ties be used to secure heavier cables?

No, these are miniature ties designed for light-duty applications. For heavier cables, you would need larger and stronger cable ties with a higher tensile strength.

Do these cable ties contain any metal components?

No, the Unicrimp Q-Crimp cable ties are produced as a complete one-piece unit with no metal parts, preventing issues like rust and corrosion.

How many cable ties are typically in a pack?

Product packaging may vary. Please refer to the specific product listing or packaging for the exact quantity per pack.

Can I re-open these cable ties after locking?

These cable ties are designed for a secure, permanent lock and are not intended to be re-opened once fully tightened. You would need to cut them to release.

Troubleshooting

Cable tie does not lock

Ensure the pointed end is fully inserted into the locking head and that no debris is obstructing the mechanism. Try a new tie if the current one appears damaged.

Difficulty in trimming excess tie

Use sharp cutters, such as wire cutters or a precision knife, to trim the excess tie material as close to the head as possible to avoid sharp edges.

Tie breaks during tightening

Check the diameter of the bundle. If it's too large for the tie, use a larger cable tie. Ensure the tie is not being over-tightened, especially on delicate cables.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • No metal parts to rust or break.
  • Durable and reliable construction.
  • Compact size ideal for tight spaces.
  • Cost-effective for light-duty bundling.
  • Easy to use with a simple locking mechanism.

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy-duty applications.
  • Limited tensile strength compared to larger ties.
  • Can be difficult to remove once locked.
  • Color options may be limited.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These cable ties require no special setup. Simply loop the pointed end through the locking head and pull to tighten. Excess material can be trimmed flush with the head using a suitable cutting tool.

Compatibility: Compatible with most standard electrical wiring, data cables, and other small items requiring bundling. Ensure the bundle diameter does not exceed the tie's capacity.

Care: Unicrimp cable ties are designed for single-use and do not require ongoing care. For optimal longevity, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
