FAQs

What are the exact quantities of each size and color?

The assortment contains 100 ties of each size in black and 100 ties of each size in white, totaling 600 ties. This means 100 x 2.5mm black, 100 x 2.5mm white, 100 x 3.6mm black, 100 x 3.6mm white, 100 x 4.8mm black, and 100 x 4.8mm white.

What material are the cable ties made from?

The product description does not specify the exact material, but cable ties are typically made from durable nylon.

Can these ties be used outdoors?

While generally durable, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight (UV) and extreme weather conditions may degrade the material over time. For long-term outdoor use, UV-resistant cable ties are recommended.

How do I cut off excess cable tie?

Use sharp scissors, a craft knife, or wire cutters to carefully trim the excess tail close to the locking head. Be cautious not to cut the bundle the tie is securing.

What is the tensile strength of these ties?

Specific tensile strength ratings are not provided for this assortment. The strength varies with the size of the tie; the 4.8mm ties will have a higher tensile strength than the 2.5mm ties.

Is the storage case stackable?

The provided storage case is designed for organization but may not be specifically engineered for stacking. Its dimensions are suitable for most workbench drawers or shelves.

Troubleshooting

Cable tie won't tighten or lock

Ensure the tab is correctly inserted into the locking head. Check for any debris obstructing the locking mechanism. If the tie is damaged, use a new one.

Cable tie breaks during tightening

The tie may be too small for the diameter being bundled, or excessive force may have been applied. Try a larger size tie or loosen the tension before fully locking.

Material appears brittle

The ties may have been exposed to extreme temperatures or UV light. Store them in a cool, dark place. Use a fresh tie from the assortment.
