Specialty Cable Ties
Cable ties are an extremely versatile way to organize cables and bundle wires. They are easy to install, and can be cut off for rework very easily. Cable ties have also been referred to as lashing ties, wire ties, zip ties and wire tidies. There are several types of wire ties available, depending on your application. Nylon cable ties are the most common type. You'll see them in home repair centers, electrician supply houses, etc. Others are much less common, and you need to visit websites like buyheatshrink.com to find them. BuyHeatShrink.com's air handling ties are suitable for air handling areas and HVAC (heating venting and air conditioning) duct work. Available in long lengths - 3 foot cable ties, 4 foot cable ties and 5 foot cable ties. Also available in Burgundy air space color for plenum wiring.
Velcro Hook and Loop Cable Ties
Our releasable Nylon wire ties are simple to use, featuring a trigger release mechanism, which can be released with one hand. The pawl type of release mechanism is also available, but the trigger release is stronger (50 LB vs. 40 LB). Both types of releasable cable ties are great for temporary fastening and wire harnesses that require rework. If you prefer the pawl type, please feel free to contact us Ordering Information - Releasable Cable Ties
Our mounted head Nylon wire ties are simple to use, featuring a standard type of cable tie together with a mounting hole (see table for screw sizes). They are ideal for mounting a wire harness or wire bundle to a rail, wall, ceiling, or rack mount system.

Tefzel® Cable ties (ETFE [ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene]), although weaker than Nylon are also extremely versatile. Used in high temperature applications, Tefzel is also highly resistant to concentrated acids (such as hydrofluoric acid, which is used for etching glass, and sulfuric acid). In addition, in high humidity environments, Tefzel is virtually unaffected. Adding even further to Tefzel's versatility is its radiation resistance up to 100 megarads, its high temperature stability (rated for continuous use up to 302°F, or 150°C), its ultraviolet (UV) light resistance, and its UL 94V-0 flame rating.

Heat Stabilized Nylon 6,6 cable ties are used in continuous or extended exposure to high temperatures (up to 250 degrees Fahrenheit), whereas a basic nylon tie without heat stabilizers will experience a dramatic reduction in physical properties (i.e. tensile) when exposed to temperatures above 85°C (185°F). Unstabilized ties will become brittle and eventually crack in the application. Nylon cable ties containing specially formulated heat stabilizers provide additional thermal endurance. Heat stabilized nylons are engineered for continuous exposure to temperatures up to 257°F (125°C), which meets UL standard for electrical applications. Features:

Halar® Cable Ties (ECTFE [ethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene]), have properties similar to Tefzel. The major difference (besides the price) is that Halar resin is rated for use in plenum spaces. This is due to its low smoke density when burned. Its durability is similar to Nylon, and is has excellent impact resistance at normal temperatures as well as at very low temperatures. Halar has good tensile, flexural, and wear-related properties. Halar is also highly gamma resistant, and is rated for temperatures from -50°C to 150°C. It is also UV resistant and carries a UL 94V-0 flame rating. Basically, if you need good resistance to almost any environment, but low smoke generation (i.e. plenum) is not a concern, go with Tefzel ties, otherwise if you require that all of your components be suitable for plenum (air-handling) spaces, go with Halar ties.
