FAQs

What type of surfaces can I stick the cable tie base to?

The cable tie bases adhere best to smooth, dry, and non-porous surfaces such as painted walls, finished wood, metal, glass, and plastic.

How wide of a cable tie can I use with this base?

This base is suitable for cable ties up to 7mm in width.

Do I need any tools to install this?

No, installation is tool-free. The base features a peel-and-stick adhesive backing.

What is the primary use for these cable tie bases?

They are designed to create a secure mounting point for cable ties, helping to organize and secure cables on surfaces like desks, walls, or within equipment.

Are these bases available in different colors?

Yes, the Kenable Cable Tie Bases are available in various colors, including black and white, as well as different sizes.

Can I use this outdoors?

These bases are designed for indoor use on smooth, dry surfaces. Exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures may affect adhesion and durability.

How long will the adhesive last?

The longevity of the adhesive depends on the surface preparation and environmental conditions. For optimal performance, ensure the surface is clean and dry, and avoid exposing the base to moisture or heavy loads.

Troubleshooting

Base is not sticking securely

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Reapply pressure to the base. If the adhesive appears weak, consider using a stronger adhesive solution or a different mounting method.

Cable tie does not fit through the base

Verify that the cable tie is no wider than 7mm. If using a wider tie, a larger base or a different fastening solution will be required.

Base is difficult to remove

Gently try to lift an edge with a plastic scraper or credit card. If it's strongly adhered, applying a small amount of heat with a hairdryer (on a low setting) might soften the adhesive, but be cautious not to damage the underlying surface.
