Cable ties Vorel 73898 pack of 50, reusable plastic fastening straps

VOREL 73898 cable ties are black, reinforced nylon straps intended for bundling, fixing and packaging tasks. Each pack contains 50 ties with a nominal length of 500 mm and a cross section of 4.8 mm, made from a modified PA6.6 (nylon) compound formulated for improved mechanical strength, tear resistance and UV stability. The ties feature evenly spaced serrations on one side and a self-locking head that prevents loosening once tightened, allowing precise adjustment of the loop to the fastened object.

Advantages

The modified polyamide construction provides higher tearing force (up to 54 kg) and increased resistance to grease, oil and ultraviolet radiation compared with standard nylon ties. The close serration spacing enables fine tension control and secure locking, while the black color offers additional UV protection and a discreet appearance for outdoor or visible installations.

Suitable for

• Organizing and bundling electrical cables and wires
• Securing hoses, pipes and conduit runs
• Packaging and fastening items for transport or storage
• Attaching or securing small parts such as hubcaps or license plates

When it may not be suitable

These ties are designed for general-purpose bundling and fastening; they are not intended for critical structural loads or applications requiring certified fire resistance, extreme chemical resistance beyond oils and greases, or very high-temperature exposure. For heavy-duty industrial lifting, permanent structural connections, or exposure to aggressive solvents, choose a product specified for those conditions.

Key specifications

• Length: 500 mm
• Width / cross section: 4.8 mm
• Colour: black
• Material: modified PA6.6 (nylon)
• Maximum tensile (tearing) force: up to 54 kg
• Maximum recommended cable bundle diameter: 130 mm
• Pack quantity: 50 pieces

How to use

Insert the tail end of the tie through the head and pull to form a loop around the items to be secured. Adjust the tension until the bundle is held firmly; the serrations will engage the locking mechanism and prevent the tie from retracting. If necessary, trim the excess tail close to the head for a neat finish using cutting pliers or a sharp blade.

What to consider before purchase

• Check the required loop circumference and select a tie length that exceeds the maximum bundle diameter (this product supports up to 130 mm).
• Verify that the maximum tensile force (up to 54 kg) suits the load and application.
• Consider environmental exposure (UV, oil, grease) — this product has enhanced resistance but not unlimited chemical or temperature tolerance.

Usage recommendations

For neat and secure installations, route cable ties so the locking head is accessible for inspection and trimming. Use black ties for outdoor or UV-exposed applications and replace ties showing signs of embrittlement or damage.
