Erko Cable Tie Black 3.6 x 200 mm, 100 pieces

The Erko cable tie, measuring 3.6 mm in width and 200 mm in length, is a professional-grade solution designed for the efficient bundling, securing, and organizing of electrical cables and wires. Manufactured from durable black plastic, these ties provide high tensile strength and resistance to environmental factors, ensuring a long-lasting hold in various conditions. Each pack contains 100 pieces, offering a practical supply for both large-scale industrial projects and everyday home maintenance tasks.

Advantages

These cable ties offer exceptional reliability due to their robust construction and secure locking mechanism, which prevents accidental loosening once tightened. The black color provides a discreet appearance when used with dark-colored equipment or in low-light environments, while also offering improved resistance to ultraviolet radiation compared to standard clear ties. Their flexible design allows for easy handling and quick application, significantly streamlining cable management processes in complex electrical installations.

Suitable for

• Securing electrical wiring in residential and commercial buildings
• Organizing computer and home theater cable bundles
• Industrial cable management and machinery maintenance
• Automotive wiring harness bundling
• General purpose fastening and organizing tasks

When it may not be suitable

These cable ties are not intended for structural support or heavy-duty load-bearing applications where mechanical stress exceeds the material's tensile limits. They should also be avoided in environments with extreme chemical exposure or temperatures that exceed the operational range of the plastic material.

Key specifications

• Width: 3.6 mm
• Length: 200 mm
• Material: Durable plastic
• Color: Black
• Quantity: 100 pieces per pack

How to use

To use the cable tie, wrap the strap around the bundle of wires and insert the tapered end into the locking head. Pull the strap until the desired tension is achieved. The internal ratchet mechanism will lock the tie in place, preventing it from slipping back. If there is excess material, it can be trimmed using a pair of side cutters or cable tie pliers for a clean finish.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the 200 mm length is sufficient for the diameter of the cable bundle you intend to secure.
• Verify that the 3.6 mm width provides the necessary tensile strength for your specific application.
• Consider the environmental conditions, as black ties are generally better suited for outdoor use due to UV resistance.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, avoid overtightening the ties to the point of damaging the cable insulation. When trimming excess material, use a flush-cutting tool to prevent leaving sharp edges that could cause injury or damage to surrounding components.
