While you are working with multiplicity of electronic or electrical appliances it becomes certainly difficult to maintain organized set up. The connecting factors being the cables need to be managed accurately to avoid potential risks and keep up smooth working. To avoid messy presentation of cables it is necessary to fix the cables or cords into the equipment in a secure and protected way.
There are many cables available in a wide range of sizes, styles and materials for fastening, bundling, and identifying in a variety of applications. Some of the common types are listed below.
Nylon ties
The normal environmental operating temperature range of nylon ties is from 40º F to 185º F. There are different colors, sizes, lengths, and tensile strengths in nylon ties. They come in various size as well as tensile strength and are called miniature, standard, intermediate, heavy duty, and extra heavy duty.
Tefzel ties
Tefzel cable ties are recommended for applications that require high resistance to environmental hazards and stress. They are suitable to work for chemical attacks, gamma and UV radiation, and excessive temperatures up to 300 degree F. Tefzel ties have a distinctive aqua color. The tensile strength of these wire range from 18 – 20 lbs. These cable ties are fire and acid resistant as well. These are perfect for use in nuclear power and chemical processing plants.
Polypropylene cable ties
Polypropylene cable ties are made of thermoplastic polymer. These cables are best suitable when base, salt and hydrochloric acid resistance is necessary. There are light and medium weight cable ties that are available in black and light green color. Black is for outdoor use and light green is for indoor use. Polypropylene cable ties are available in lengths between 4” and 20”.
Mil-Spec Cable Ties
Military-Spec cable tie are manufactured by quality domestic manufacturers. They are available in a wide variety of lengths, strengths, and colors and be conventional to military specifications. It is used in military and aerospace industries including military ground vehicles, satellites, jet engines, and weapon systems.
Pick the perfect cable tie according to their environmental operational temperatures and tensile strength for your job. Cable ties are used in industries like electrical installation, construction industry, and preliminary installation purposes.
