Self-locking nylon cable tie
This content will be shared across all product pages.
A self-locking nylon cable tie, also known as a zip tie or cable tie, is a versatile fastening tool used for bundling and organizing cables, wires, and other items. It consists of a flexible nylon strip with teeth on one side and a ratchet mechanism on the other, allowing it to be looped around items and tightened securely. Once tightened, the self-locking mechanism prevents the tie from loosening or slipping, ensuring a tight and secure hold.
