Cable Ties and Fixings

Product catalog summary
Material Information
The document provides an overview of materials used in cable ties, including polyamides (PA66, PA12, PA46), stainless steel, and other polymers. Key properties such as operating temperature, flammability, and chemical resistance are detailed. Polyamide's hygroscopic nature affects its mechanical properties, with optimal water content crucial for maintaining product quality.
Cable Ties Specifications
Various types of cable ties are discussed, including inside and outside serrated ties, releasable ties, and stainless steel ties. Each type is designed for specific applications, such as UV resistance, high temperature, and chemical resistance.
Fixing Elements and Mounts
Includes cradles, clips, and mounts for various applications, emphasizing ease of installation and secure attachment. Various designs for limited space, adhesive mounts, and heavy-duty applications are detailed.
Material Properties and Standards
Detailed properties of materials like polyamide, polyester, and stainless steel are provided, including their resistance to chemicals, temperature ranges, and mechanical strength. Conformity to IEC 62275 standards and flammability tests according to UL94 are highlighted.
Introduction to Polyamides
Polyamides, such as Nylon®, are partially crystalline polymers with high strength, rigidity, and abrasion resistance. Various PA66 variants are tailored for specific conditions, including standard, heat-stabilized, UV-stabilized, and impact-resistant versions.
Properties of Polyamide PA12 and PA46
PA12 is less hygroscopic than PA66, with better impact performance and weather resistance. PA46 offers greater rigidity and higher operating temperature ranges, making it suitable for high-temperature applications.
Properties of E/TFE and PEEK
E/TFE is a rugged thermoplastic with excellent mechanical toughness and chemical resistance. PEEK is a high-performance thermoplastic with outstanding wear resistance and chemical resistance.
Chemical Resistance and Flammability Testing
A table summarizes the chemical resistance of different plastics. UL94 is a flammability test for plastic materials, with classifications based on burning behavior and material thickness.
Specifications and Calculations
Calculations for determining the mass a cable tie can support based on its tensile strength are provided. The minimum tensile strength is a critical factor for selecting cable ties, determined according to Military Specification MIL-S-23190E.
Material and Storage Recommendations
Cable ties are made from high-quality polyamide, which is hygroscopic. Optimal storage conditions include maintaining a water content of approximately 2.5% and avoiding direct sunlight and heat.
Locking Technologies
Three main locking technologies are discussed: plastic pawls, KR series with a unique locking mechanism, and MBT series with a metal ball-bearing mechanism.
Product Range and Features
Various cable tie models are listed, highlighting their dimensions, materials, colors, and packaging details. The T-Series cable ties are noted for their inside serration and ease of application.
Conclusion
HellermannTyton offers a wide range of cable ties suitable for different applications, emphasizing the importance of selecting the right tensile strength and following proper storage guidelines to maintain product quality.
Overview of Cable Ties and Fixings
The document provides detailed specifications and features of various cable ties and fixings, focusing on different series designed for specific applications, including high-temperature environments and areas requiring high chemical resistance.
Specifications and Procedures
Multiple types of cable ties are listed, each described with dimensions, material, color, and packaging details. Recommended tools for application are listed, emphasizing the importance of using the correct tools for efficient and secure installation.
Standards and Approvals
The document mentions HACCP for identifying and controlling potential hazards in food production. Specific product approvals and specifications are available in the appendix.
Features and Benefits
Each cable tie series is designed with unique features to suit different applications, such as the OS-Series for thin-walled bundles and the PEEK-Series for high-temperature applications.
Conclusion
The document serves as a comprehensive guide for selecting the appropriate cable ties and fixings based on specific application requirements, ensuring safety, efficiency, and compliance with industry standards.

Cable Ties and Fixings Technical Information Properties of Polyamide PA66 Polyamides are among the most important thermoplastic synthetic materials. Thermoplastics can be reshaped by heating as often as required without undergoing chemical decomposition or other negative changes. This makes polyamide ideal for processing via injection moulding into high quality products. About 90 % of cable ties and fixings from HellermannTyton are made from this material. Polyamide is also known under the brand name of Nylon®, which was introduced by the Dupont company. The inner structure of polyamide displays...

Cable Ties and Fixings Technical Information Properties of UV-stabilised Polyamide PA66W The question constantly arises as to whether a black cable tie is suitable for use outside. This is dependant on the application of the tie, but in general the following statements can be made: Apart from PA66, there are polyamides which are less hygroscopic. These include PA12, which has a molecular chain made of a base unit with 12 carbon atoms: A black cable tie made of polyamide 6.6 standard (PA66) is only coloured black with a low proportion of carbon black. This is not sufficient to protect the material...
