FAQs

What material are these cable ties made of?

These cable ties are made from a strong and durable Nylon 66 material.

Are these cable ties reusable?

No, these cable ties are designed for single use. Once tightened and locked, they cannot be reopened.

What is the maximum weight these ties can hold?

These cable ties are suitable for holding items weighing up to 8kg (approximately 18lbs).

What does UL 94V-2 certification mean?

UL 94V-2 is a flammability standard. It means the material has undergone specific tests and meets criteria for self-extinguishing after exposure to a flame, indicating a level of fire resistance.

Can I use these ties for outdoor applications?

Yes, the Nylon 66 material is anti-erosion and suitable for many outdoor applications. However, prolonged direct UV exposure may eventually degrade the material.

What is the maximum diameter of a bundle these ties can secure?

These cable ties can secure bundles with a maximum diameter of 4 cm (40 mm).

How many cable ties are included in a pack?

Each pack contains 100 pieces of cable ties.

Troubleshooting

Cable tie won't lock or tighten

Ensure the pointed end is correctly inserted into the head and that there is no debris obstructing the locking mechanism. Check that the tie is not damaged.

Tie breaks during tightening

The bundle may be too large for the tie's maximum capacity (40mm diameter) or the item's weight exceeds the 8kg limit. Ensure the tie is not overstressed.

Difficulty trimming excess length

Use a sharp cutting tool such as wire cutters or a utility knife. Cut at an angle close to the locking head for a neat finish, being careful not to cut yourself.

Material appears brittle or weak

The ties may have been stored improperly (e.g., extreme temperatures or prolonged UV exposure). Ensure new ties are stored in a suitable environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  • Avoid exposing to harsh chemicals that may degrade Nylon 66.
