FAQs
What material are these cable ties made from?
They are manufactured from Nylon 66, a strong and durable material.
What is the operating temperature range for these cable ties?
These cable ties can operate effectively in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C.

Troubleshooting
Cable tie does not lock securely
Ensure the ribbed side of the tie is properly inserted into the locking head. Check that the tie is not damaged and that there are no obstructions in the locking mechanism. The tie may have been over-tightened or damaged during application.
Cable tie breaks during tightening
Verify that the cable tie is suitable for the required tension. Avoid forcing the tie beyond its tensile strength. Ensure the tie is not subjected to extreme temperatures outside its specified range during application.
Difficulty cutting excess cable tie
Use a sharp cutting tool such as wire cutters or a utility knife. Ensure the excess tail is cut as close to the locking head as possible to avoid sharp edges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These cable ties are designed for immediate use. Simply insert the rounded end of the tie into the locking head and pull to tighten. The integrated locking mechanism ensures a secure hold.
Compatibility: While versatile, these ties are best suited for applications where their strength and operating temperature range are beneficial. They are compatible with a wide variety of materials and objects that can be bundled.
Care: Cable ties are single-use items. Once tightened and cut, they cannot be reused. Store unused cable ties in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their material integrity. Avoid exposing them to excessive heat or chemicals that could degrade Nylon 66.
