FAQs

What is the primary material of these cable ties?

These cable ties are made from Polyamide 6/6, a strong and durable plastic.

What does 'Zero Halogen' mean for these ties?

'Zero Halogen' means that the material does not contain halogens like chlorine or bromine, which can produce toxic gases when burned. This makes them a safer option in certain environments.

What is the tensile strength of these ties?

The tensile strength is 18kgs, meaning they can withstand a pulling force of up to 18 kilograms before breaking.

Can these ties be used for outdoor applications?

While they have good resistance, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme weather conditions may affect their long-term durability. For critical outdoor applications, consider ties specifically rated for outdoor use.

What is the flammability rating of UL 94-2 Class V2?

This rating indicates that the material will self-extinguish after a flame source is removed, and dripping of inflamed particles is permitted, as long as they do not ignite a cotton layer below.

How many cable ties are in a pack?

This product is listed as a 'Pack of 100'.

Are there other colors available besides blue?

Yes, there are 8 colors available in total, though this specific item is blue.

Troubleshooting

Cable tie won't lock

Ensure the pointed end is fully inserted into the locking mechanism and that the tie is not damaged or stretched out. Try a new tie if necessary.

Tie breaks during tightening

Check the tensile strength rating; you may be exceeding the 18kg limit. Use a tie with a higher tensile strength for heavier loads or distribute the tension across multiple ties.

Difficulty inserting the tie end

Verify the pointed end is not bent or damaged. Ensure the locking head is clear of debris. The angled design should facilitate insertion; if it's still difficult, the tie might be defective.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Made from robust Polyamide 6/6 material.
  • Offers good dielectric strength for insulation.
  • Designed for easy and quick application.
  • Zero halogen properties enhance safety.
  • Available in multiple colors for organization.

Cons

  • Tensile strength may be insufficient for heavy-duty applications.
  • Specific flammability rating (UL 94-2 Class V2) might not meet stringent fire safety requirements in all settings.
  • Limited flexibility due to polyamide material can be a factor in some uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Gather the items you wish to bundle. Ensure they are neatly arranged.
  2. Thread the pointed end of the cable tie through the locking head.
  3. Pull the tie taut around the bundle until secure. Trim any excess length with scissors or cutters if necessary.

Compatibility:

These cable ties are compatible with a wide range of materials including cables, wires, hoses, and other flexible items. Their polyamide 6/6 construction offers good resistance to chemicals and moderate temperatures, making them suitable for most indoor and general outdoor applications. They are designed to work with standard manual or powered cable tie tools for high-volume applications.

Care:

  • Store cable ties in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Avoid exposing the ties to solvents or chemicals that may degrade polyamide.
  • For cleaning purposes, the ties themselves do not require maintenance, but the bundled items should be kept clean.
