Many people turn to the versatile and easy-to-apply cable management products we know as cable ties . While they are extraordinarily helpful, the unfortunate caveat is most of them on the market are only designed for one-time use. Once they are cut, you cannot reapply them. This is where reusable or releasable cable ties step in. What are some of the pros, and cons to using removable cable ties ?

There&#;s a reason they&#;re called reusable, which is one of the benefits. If waste pains you, a reusable cable tie may be for you, because they can continually be reused throughout their lifetime. This type of product may cost you more upfront, but in the long run, you could pay less if you find you must frequently cut and toss cable ties. The waste from discarding them could additionally be something you&#;d like to avert, especially in a world that&#;s becoming less throwaway with some items. You may consider these ties one small step in being kinder to our planet and resources. The Millepede&#; Mille-Ties&#; have a looped design with a &#;no crush&#; technology. This makes them easy to cut and fit them to your exact specifications. Any leftover piece is still useful and you can create another cable tie with it.
They are typically more flexible than standard cable ties. You&#;ll find an array of cable tie construction styles among adjustable cable tie varieties. At CableOrganizer®, one of them includes the HellermannTyton® SOFTIX Cable Ties. While durable and tear resistant, their elasticity makes them suitable for sensitive cabling projects, like those involving fiber optics. GripLockTies&#; are also adjustable but with a rubber lining to secure cables with the right fit and amount of cushion.
They install quickly and easily. As we mentioned above, there are different cable tie constructions that facilitate both application and removal, whether that is the beading, hook and loop, or other varieties. HellermannTyton® makes one of them in the SpeedyTie&#;, a lashing tie that sets up fast for temporary applications. It can be released just as instantaneously with one hand. Beaded cable ties have a locking key head that keeps wires snug without overtightening &#; with tie removal just as effortlessly.
This cable tie variety is gentler to cables. One-time-use cable ties frequently put the squeeze on the cables and wires they are bundling, with overtightening and the potential to cut into cable jackets two side effects. A hook and loop cable tie like the VELCRO® ONE-WRAP® is one way to remedy that issue. It wraps easily and gently around a wire bundle, adhering neatly to itself &#; and is easy to undo.
They&#;re not just for bunding wires. Though the same may be said about traditional cable ties, you can use removable cable ties for many organizational projects around your home or workplace. Whether you&#;re cleaning up the cable clutter around your computer area, tidying wires around your garage, or bundling your garden hose, releasable cable ties are useful for many tasks.
When it comes to cable ties, there are many different types of cable ties, including heavy-duty, stainless steel, push mount and these are usually considered as single-use cable ties. However, another variant of standard cable ties are reusable cable ties (commonly referred to as releasable cable ties). Reusable cable ties differ from single-use cable ties as they are more adaptable, viable and can be reused for multiple purposes.
Depending on the purpose of your job or project, you need to take into consideration which is the right type of cable. Let&#;s find out why you should consider using reusable cable ties.
Releasable cable ties are a type of reusable cable tie. As releasable cable ties can be reused, they are generally a little bit more costly than standard cable ties. But how do releasable cable ties work? The head of the cable tie has a trigger style quick release mechanism that can be released by hand to stop the teeth biting into the head. This allows the cable tie to be undone, making these ties ideal as a temporary fastening solution. The easy to release clip allows you to reopen these cable ties to either reuse over and over again, or reopen to allow new wires to be added to an existing bundle.
Perfect for use in bundling and organisation jobs where changes are anticipated. Releasable cable ties give you the freedom to rearrange or adjust at any time, without having to use a new cable tie each time, making them more ecological.
Looking at cable ties, you may not be able to easily tell how standard and releasable cable ties may differ. Once a standard cable tie is tightened and secured in place, most often the only way to remove it is to cut it, thus breaking it and making it unable to be reused. A releasable cable tie, on the other hand, can be quickly and easily detached without harming or damaging the tie itself. It can then be easily re-tightened or utilised in an entirely different application altogether.
Single use cable ties are primarily known as standard cable ties, as they were the first to be invented by Maurus C. Logan in . They are widely used to fasten and hold numerous items together, some items include bundling together cables and wires. At GTSE, we offer a variety of single use cable ties, such as nylon, coloured, stainless steel, double loop, screw mount and more.
