FAQs

What size screws are needed for mounting?

This FKH25 model requires M3 screws for mounting. These are not typically included with the cable clips.

How many clips are in one pack?

The Hellermann Tyton FKH25 is supplied in packs of 100 pieces.

Is the clip reusable?

Yes, the FKH25 features a quick lock/release mechanism, making it easily releasable and reusable.

What material is the FKH25 made from?

It is made from a high-quality, modified impact-resistant polyamide 6.6.

Can this clip be mounted using adhesive?

The FKH25 model is designed for screw fixing. Other models in the FKH series may be available with self-adhesive options.

What are the dimensions of the FKH25?

The FKH25 has a width of 25 mm and a depth of 31 mm. The screw hole diameter is 3.1 mm.

Troubleshooting

Clip does not close securely

Ensure the flat ribbon cable is correctly seated within the clip's wings and that no obstructions are preventing closure. Check that the cable is not too thick for the clip's capacity.

Screw mounting is unstable

Verify that the M3 screws are the correct size and are fully engaged in the mounting surface. Ensure the mounting surface itself is rigid and suitable for screw fixing.

Ribbon cable feels loose

Check that the flexible wings are applying adequate pressure. If the cable is very thin, consider using a slightly smaller clip or adding a secondary securing method if necessary.
