FAQs

How many Nite Ize Gear Ties are included in the 12" pack?

The Nite Ize Gear Tie 12" pack typically contains 2 ties. Please check the product packaging for the exact quantity.

Can I use these Gear Ties in saltwater?

Yes, the Gear Ties are waterproof and safe for use in fresh or saltwater without damage.

Will these ties rust?

No, the Gear Ties are designed with a strong wire inside and a durable rubber shell that resists rust and corrosion.

How many times can a Gear Tie be reused?

Gear Ties are designed to be reusable hundreds of times, making them a long-lasting organizational tool.

Can I cut a Gear Tie to a shorter length?

While you can cut the rubber, it is not recommended as it will expose the wire and may compromise the integrity and safety of the tie.

Are these ties safe for electronics?

Yes, the rubber exterior is non-marking and provides a gentle grip, making them safe for bundling electronic cables.

What is the weight limit for a Gear Tie?

The product information does not specify a precise weight limit, but they are designed for general-purpose bundling and organization of common household and workshop items.

Troubleshooting

Gear Tie won't hold its shape

Ensure the wire core is not severely bent or kinked. For minor deformation, try gently straightening it. If the wire is significantly damaged, the tie may need to be replaced.

Rubber exterior feels sticky or degraded

This can occur with prolonged exposure to certain chemicals or extreme heat. Clean with mild soap and water and allow to dry thoroughly. If degradation is severe, discontinue use.

Items slip out of the Gear Tie

Ensure the Gear Tie is twisted tightly enough around the objects. The rubber exterior provides grip; make sure the surface of the items being bundled is not excessively smooth or slippery.

Connecting multiple Gear Ties is difficult

Create a loop at the end of the first Gear Tie, then thread the second Gear Tie through this loop before twisting it closed. Ensure both ties are properly aligned for a secure connection.

Cons

  • Connecting multiple ties can add bulk.
  • Colors may vary if purchasing in a multi-color pack, which might not suit aesthetic preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply place the Gear Tie around the items you wish to secure or organize. Wrap the tie around the objects and twist the ends together until the items are held firmly in place. For longer applications, loop one Gear Tie through another and twist to connect.

Compatibility: The Nite Ize Gear Tie 12" is compatible with a vast array of objects including cables, cords, hoses, tools, sporting equipment, and general household items. Its flexible nature allows it to conform to various shapes and sizes.

Care: To clean, wipe the Gear Tie with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, mild soap and water can be used. Ensure the tie is completely dry before storing or using it again. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber or wire.
