Cable Tie

Cable tie is a type of fastener, available in different colours and textures is a sort of a snap that is used for the purpose of fastening several assortments of cable or wires together. Cable tie has many colloquial terms such as, zip tie, zap strap, zip strip, mouse belt, tie wrap, quick draw, or rat belt.

A cable tie is an adjustable strap for bundling together articles such as cables. Cable ties are also known as zip ties, cable clips, cable clamps, cable straps, cable clamps, cable clips, bundling ties, bundling straps, bundling clips, bundle ties, bundling belts, wire ties, ring clamps, adjustable clamps, harnessing devices, strap seals, binding straps, and ties.

Typical zip ties include an elongated strap with an adjacent locking head at one end of the strap, a tip at the opposite end of the strap and ratchet teeth on one side of the strap. The locking head defines an opening for allowing the tip end of the strap to be pulled through the opening and thereby form a closed loop around a bundle of articles. The locking head typically further includes a pawl having teeth with surfaces for engaging the ratchet teeth to lock the strap in the locking head after the tip end of the strap has been pulled through said opening. In other words, it helps keep them organized into a cable tree. However, once the cable tie goes past the ratchet, the resultant loop can only be made tighter and cannot be pulled in the reverse direction. Furthermore, a cable tie tensioning device is also useful to achieve a particular extent of tension while tying things up and it also cuts off any extra tail to keep away from injuries as a result of any sharp edge left behind.

Cable Ties Usage

Cable Ties (zip ties) can be used for versatile purposes. They may be used for wires, cable wires, bicycles, machines, signs, boats, ports, fire extinguishers, air conditioners, criminals, electricity wires, toasters, price tags, large machines, computer motherboards or special industries, etc.

Cable ties can be used as improvised handcuffs in places like USA, UK and Panama. These, specifically made for the prisoners are also known as 'plasticuffs' which are made keeping the zip ties design in focus. One of its other uses is to avoid wheel trims termed as 'hubcaps' from falling off vehicles while in journey. Therefore, various designs and sizes of cable ties are available according to different uses these days.

With continued global success and increasing demand for adherence to safety standards, zip ties manufacturers are trying to bring new solutions to major food, beverage companies and their processing facilities. In that case, new zip ties are designed for the food and beverage processing industries to meet safety standards to minimize the risk of contamination.

From materials and size to construction and temperature rating, cable ties can have a wide variety of features which allow them to be specialized to different situations. In order to choose the right zip ties for your application, there are a few things to keep in mind when making your decision:

• The cable tie’s construction.

• The cable tie’s length.
• The cable tie’s material.
• The cable tie’s special features.

Cable Tie Manufacturing Process

Cable ties are manufactured economically by a cyclic injection molding method, in which molten plastic material is injected into a mold cavity defining the cable tie and then allowed to solidify within the mold cavity. The mold parts defining the mold cavity are then separated and the cable tie is ejected, first from the mold parts and then from the space between the mold parts. A preferred material for cable ties is nylon.

Forming the zip ties by injecting molten plastic material into a mold cavity defined by a first mold part combined with a second mold part, wherein the first mold part includes a head region defining a portion of the head of the cable tie and the second mold part includes a tip region defining a portion of the tip of the cable ties.

Zip ties, cable clips, cable clamps are produced in the form of batches of different numbers depending on size - the smaller the size, the greater is the number of ties in one pack. Normally, a manufacturer would have additional moulds so that if there is a problem during  quality  control,  the  faulty  mould  can  be

replaced. This would result in the next batch of bags containing sets of ties numbered differently from the original sequence.

Zip ties, cable clips, cable clamps manufacturer purchases nylon granules from plastic granule suppliers who also sell them in different colors.

Quality of Cable Ties

Plastic cable ties are manufactured by an injection moulding process, in which several individual moulds are grouped together side by side to produce a batch of cable ties in a single stroke of moulding. The appearance of a cable tie is determined by the size and the shape of the mould used in the manufacturing process.

Damaged cable ties are caused due to:
• Filthy mould machine pipe
• Improper pressure control of mould machine
• Using recycled or mixed nylon plastic
• Poor heat transferring from recycled material

Dust in the mould machine pipe can cause the cable ties to turn out looking dirty if it's white, but would be less obvious in colored zip ties. That's one of the reasons that white cable ties are preferred because they can be seen easily. Of course, the tensile strength is affected as well. Zip ties made using recycled nylon granules can create rough and not pure white ties, which says buyers who are looking for low price might end up getting cable tie with low quality.

Cable tie usage includes household products, industrial products, travel luggage industry, plastic furniture industry, hair care and comb industry and others.
