Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Gather the items you need to secure.
- Thread the pointed end of the cable tie through the locking mechanism.
- Pull the tie taut around the items until snug. For best results, use pliers or a specialized zip tie tool to achieve maximum tension.
- Once tightened, the ball lock mechanism will secure the tie. To complete the installation, cut off any excess tail close to the locking head.
Compatibility:
These ties are compatible with a wide range of materials including metal, plastic, wood, and rubber. Their primary limitation is the diameter of the bundle, which should not exceed 105mm. Ensure the surfaces being secured are not delicate, as the high tensile strength can potentially damage soft materials if overtightened.
Care:
As these are designed for permanent installation and made of stainless steel, they require minimal care. However, if used in highly corrosive environments (e.g., saltwater exposure), periodic inspection is recommended. Store unused ties in a dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain their integrity.
