The RS PRO Black Nylon Cable Tie is a one-piece, self-locking fastener designed for cable management in home, DIY, and garden applications. These ties are low smoke, halogen-free, and UV resistant, making them suitable for outdoor use.
Product Description
The cable tie features a head with a slot. The tape is pulled through this slot to create a loop. Once the desired loop size is achieved, the excess cable can be cut off. These ties are non-releasable, meaning they lock permanently once tightened.

Installation
To install the cable tie:
- Wrap the cable tie around the bundle of cables.
- Insert the tapered end of the tie into the head slot.
- Pull the tie through the slot until the loop is tight around the cables.
- Ensure the tie is secure.
- Use a cutting tool to remove the excess length of the cable tie.

Common problems
Ensure the tie is pulled tight through the head and the locking mechanism is fully engaged. Note that these are non-releasable ties and cannot be undone once locked.
