Our goal is to provide you with the practical details and confidence you need to select the right cable management solutions for your specific applications.
General Questions
Our standard nylon cable ties are manufactured from high-quality Polyamide 6.6, a material known for its strength, stability, and durability. This construction ensures reliable performance, even in harsh industrial environments. Our ties are European-made and feature a flammability rating of UL 94 Class V2.
Yes, we provide free next-day delivery for our nylon cable ties and associated products across Australia. We understand the importance of meeting project deadlines, which is why we prioritise fast and reliable shipping to get you the components you need without delay.
We offer a comprehensive range of cable tie sizes to suit any application. Our lengths vary from 98mm up to 1000mm, with widths from 2.5mm to 12.5mm. You can easily filter products by size on our shop page to find the exact dimensions required for your project.
Nylon Cable Ties
Both our black and natural nylon cable ties are made from the same high-quality Polyamide 6.6. The primary difference is the addition of carbon black to the black ties, which provides increased UV resistance. For this reason, black cable ties are the recommended choice for outdoor applications or where exposure to sunlight is a factor.
Our cable ties are engineered for high tensile strength and long-lasting performance. The strength varies between 8.16kg to 110kg, depending on the width and thickness of the tie. Specific strength ratings and product details are available on each product page to help you select the appropriate tie for your fastening requirements. View our range of cable ties.
Adhesive Cable Tie Bases
Adhesive cable ties bases provide a secure mounting point for nylon cable ties where drilling a hole is not possible or practical. They are ideal for routing and securing cables and wires along surfaces to keep installations neat, tidy, and free from hazards. Simply peel off the backing and stick the base to a clean, dry surface.
The strength of our adhesive bases depends on their size. For example, our 19mm x 19mm bases have a strength of 18.36kg, while our 27mm x 27mm bases can hold up to 22.44kg. This ensures a durable and reliable fixing point for your cable management needs..
Metal-Detectable Cable Ties and Adhesive Bases
Our metal-detectable cable ties and adhesive bases are specifically designed for use in industries where contamination is a critical concern, such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. They are made from Polyamide 6.6 with an iron oxide additive. This unique composition allows fragments or entire ties to be identified by standard metal detectors and X-ray inspection equipment, preventing contamination of your products..
The distinct blue colour of these ties provides an additional layer of safety, making them visually easy to spot in a production or processing environment. This high visibility, combined with their detectability, makes our blue metal-detectable cable ties an essential component for quality assurance and safety compliance.
