Types of Custom Cable Ties & Mounting Products

Our custom cable ties and mounting products include:

Standard Zip Ties

Standard zip or cable ties are one of the most popular zip ties in the market. They are reliable, weather-resistant, and offer consistent performance whenever used. Standard zip ties are an all-around solution ideal for a very wide variety of industry applications, cable management, and wire building.

Custom Cable Ties

We have a wide selection of custom-made cable ties to ensure we meet all our client’s specific application needs. They include mounting hole cable ties that secure wires to panels, color cable ties for coding, and releasable cable ties for circumstances needing temporary bundling

Marked Cable Ties

When you have a lot of cables in your project, identification can be challenging. Cable identification ties and tags make it easy to identify and bundle various wires, cables, and assemblies. We have a variety of tags, flags, and identification methods that are ideal for jobs needing serial numbers, logos, images, or any important identification text.

Heavy Duty Zip Ties

You can use these ties to keep your automotive cables untangled and prevent wiring knots for optimal organization. Heavy duty zip ties are made from durable nylon materials, can hold at least 120 lbs, and can stay together even when used in harsh conditions. This enables you to harness thicker tubing, hoses, and wires for various applications.

Mounts and Mounting Bases

Cable tie mounts and mounting bases are versatile, durable, and effective wire management mounting products used in routing and securing cables and wires in place. Mounts and mounting bases are available in many configurations for adherence on mounting surfaces and are easy to install.

Our most popular mount and mounting bases feature a square shape with a rubber-backed mounting adhesive and a screw hole at the center of the base. For applications exposed to higher temperatures or requiring more holding power, we recommend an acrylic-backed base.

How Custom Zip Ties and Cable Ties are Made?  

We manufacture zip ties using a cyclical injection molding method, which involves the use of two sets of molds: one containing a self-locking head mechanism known as a ratchet, and the other one containing a cable tie tip that slides into the ratchet. During this process, melted resins are injected into the mold through a gate or single opening until it fills the impressions. After the molten plastic hardens in the impressions, we remove the formed and now complete cable ties.  

Materials Used for Custom Cable Ties, Zip Ties & Mounting Products  

Material is a crucial specification when choosing a cable tie. The material should feature the appropriate strength for the application and be compatible with the cable to avoid damage, excessive wear, or corrosion.  

When choosing the right cable tie for your needs, the material choice should play a key role. Our cable ties, zip ties, and mounting products come in a range of durable materials, including: 

  • Nylon 
  • Polypropylene 
  • Low-density polyethylene 
  • 304 and 316 stainless steel
  • Aluminum 
  • Cloth
