EM Group Detectable Cable Tie 290x4.5 mm with Metal Particles, 100 pcs

The EM Group detectable cable tie is a specialized solution engineered for environments where safety and hygiene are paramount. Measuring 290x4.5 mm, these ties are manufactured with integrated metal particles throughout the material. This unique composition ensures that the ties are easily detectable by standard industrial metal detection systems, significantly reducing the risk of foreign object contamination in sensitive production areas.

Advantages

The primary benefit of these cable ties is their high level of detectability, which provides an essential layer of quality control in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. By using these ties, companies can ensure compliance with strict safety standards and minimize the risk of product recalls caused by plastic debris. The durable construction ensures a secure hold for cables and bundles, while the material remains resistant to the demanding conditions often found in industrial processing facilities.

Suitable for

• Food and beverage processing plants
• Pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities
• Chemical industry production lines
• Environments with strict HACCP and safety protocols

When it may not be suitable

These cable ties are not intended for use in environments where metal detection is not required or where the specific chemical resistance of the material does not match the environment. They may also be unnecessary for standard office or home cable management where non-detectable, cost-effective alternatives are sufficient.

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 290 mm length by 4.5 mm width
• Material: Polymer with integrated metal particles
• Quantity: 100 pieces per pack
• Detection: Compatible with industrial metal detectors

How to use

To use the cable tie, wrap the strap around the cable bundle and insert the tapered end into the locking head. Pull the strap until the desired tension is achieved. The self-locking mechanism will hold the tie securely in place. If there is excess length, it can be trimmed using a clean cutting tool, ensuring that the cut piece is accounted for to maintain safety standards.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the sensitivity of your facility's metal detection equipment
• Ensure the dimensions are appropriate for your cable bundle diameter
• Check that the material properties meet your specific chemical and temperature requirements

Usage recommendations

Always perform a test with your specific metal detection equipment to confirm that the ties are identified correctly under your operational settings. Regularly inspect installed ties for signs of wear or damage in high-vibration areas.
