Cable Ties - 2.5mm x 100mm - Blue

These cable ties are made from Polyamide 6/6 Zero Halogen, which offers durability and safety features like a UL 94-2 Class V2 flammability rating.

Each cable tie has a tensile strength of 18kgs, making them suitable for securing most common items and cable bundles.

The dimensions of these specific cable ties are 2.5mm in width and 100mm in length.

While durable, prolonged exposure to UV rays (sunlight) can degrade polyamide over time. For extensive outdoor use, UV-resistant cable ties are recommended. However, they are suitable for general indoor applications.

These are designed as single-use fasteners. While it might be possible to release them in some cases, it can weaken the locking mechanism, and they are not intended for repeated use.

Zero Halogen indicates that the material does not contain halogens like chlorine or bromine. This is often a safety requirement in certain environments, as it means less toxic smoke is produced during combustion.

Each pack contains 100 cable ties.

Ensure the pointed end is fully inserted into the locking head and pulled taut. Check for any obstructions or damage to the locking mechanism or the tie itself. Ensure you are not exceeding the 18kg tensile strength limit.

The bundle may be too large or dense for the tie's capacity. Try using a larger or stronger cable tie. Ensure the tie is not kinked or damaged before application. Avoid over-tightening beyond its rated strength.

Ensure the pointed end is aligned correctly with the opening of the locking head. A slight twist might help. If the tie is old or has been stored improperly, it might be brittle; try a new tie from the pack.
