A self-locking nylon cable tie, also known as a zip tie, is a tool used for bundling, securing, or fastening items. It is typically strap-shaped with one end featuring a small hole or slot for locking, and the other end being pointed to easily pass through the hole.
Cable ties find widespread applications in various fields, including electronics, construction, packaging, and cable management.
Additionally, some cable ties may have label slots, coding structures, or color coding above the slots for marking or identifying the fastened items.
Cable ties come in different locking designs, materials, and colors, all of which contribute to improving item management and maintenance efficiency. Different manufacturers and models may offer various cable tie designs and labelling options.
