Product Review

The Ty-Rap TY5232MX has a nominal length of 8" with a 18lb capacity and a maximum wire bundle diameter of 2". Made of black nylon with a stainless steel locking device and sold in a pack of 100. The smooth, notchless body reduces stress concentration points under tension, making the tie stronger and lower profile than notched body ties. Ribbed and Stippled body grips the bundle and prevents slippage. Rounded edges protect insulation, preventing sharp edges from damaging cables.

Betts, and is now a leading designer and manufacturer of connectors and components for the electrical and communication market.
