Application of cable ties - Practical, safe and convenient
Plastic cable ties can be used for many purposes. They are suitable, among other things, for connecting wires into bundles, mounting elements in a desired place, marking cables or making minor repairs.
Cable ties can be installed manually, but the most convenient option when installing many cable ties at the same time is to use special pliers, which make the task (e.g. fastening cables) much easier and take less time.
Cable ties (cable ties) - other information
It is worth remembering that most cable ties are intended to be disposable products - even if you manage to remove the cable tie without damaging it, the ratchet mechanism may be strained and consequently not work properly. The components of the mechanism may be characterized by, for example, reduced durability. In this case, the cable tie may no longer fulfill its function.
Therefore, it is best to use the ties only once: it is not expensive and guarantees a durable and strong connection. The exception, of course, are reusable bands, which are equipped with a special lever that allows you to deflect the latch and spread the band without damaging the belt teeth or the mechanism inside the head.
These types of ties are available in various sizes (thickness and length), so adapting a reusable cable tie to a specific application is not a problem. We offer a wide selection of cable ties with universal applications. Cable ties made of plastic are durable, flexible and, above all, easy to use.
Choosing the right cable tie - Quantity, length, thickness (plastic cable ties)
Different types of cable ties are designed for different uses. Wristbands are usually sold in larger packages, several dozen or several hundred pieces. Thanks to this, their stock in the workshop will not run out quickly, and the price for a single product will be as low as possible.
When choosing cable ties, you should pay attention primarily to the intended use: if you plan to create wire harnesses, you should pay particular attention to the length of the cable tie strap (too short will make it impossible to fasten, while too long will be inconvenient to use). Their dimensions are always given in the product description.
Cable tie (plastic cable ties) - what else is worth paying attention to when shopping?
Thickness and durability are also important, because a band that is too delicate may simply break under heavy load. If you want to use zips to mark cables, you must pay the most attention to the colors: they should be consistent and obvious to all potential users.
However, if you use zip ties in a strongly sunny place, it is worth using products with the addition of special substances that provide resistance to ultraviolet radiation (usually such zip ties are black, but it is best to look for information on UV resistance in the specifications provided by the manufacturer).
