Types of Stainless Steel Cable Tie

Zhonggu is recognized globally for high-quality products across various industries. We are committed to enhancing our customers' experience by providing superior, value-added goods. Together, we can build a brighter future.

The three main types of stainless steel cable ties are Roller Ball, Ladder, and Releasable. The Roller Ball design is the most prevalent, featuring an internal locking ball within the tie's head that facilitates the cinching process.

These cable ties boast a tensile strength of 150 to 300 lbs and are typically sold in packs of 100.

• Roller Ball cable ties include a locking ball bearing, which securely grips the strap as tension is applied. Manufactured from 316-grade stainless steel, they feature 4.6mm wide straps and are available in multiple lengths.

These ties are ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, where resistance to corrosion is vital. They not only resist a variety of chemicals but are also thermally non-hardenable and non-magnetic due to their austenitic nature.

With a maximum molybdenum content of 3%, 316 stainless steel enhances the tie's corrosion resistance, particularly against industrial substances. Moreover, these ties are fire-resistant, offering great performance even under extreme temperatures.

• Ladder stainless steel ties excel in applications requiring diverse working temperatures. Suitable for industries such as automotive and construction, these ties feature a unique multi-locking mechanism that allows for easy installation without additional tools. Coated options are available for added protection, while uncoated variants thrive in high-temperature environments.

• Releasable stainless steel ties offer the convenience of fastening, unfastening, and refastening as needed. Available with a PPA coating—non-toxic and low smoke—they can endure the harshest outdoor conditions, featuring a self-locking head for added security.

Features of Stainless Steel Cable Ties:

• Self-locking mechanism with an easy ball-locking design
• Smooth edges and rounded surfaces for safe handling
• 100% stainless steel construction with SS316
• Ployester-painted ties to prevent galvanic corrosion
• Weather and chemical resistant
• Non-toxic and halogen-free
• Long service life of up to 30 years
• Available in multiple colors for easy identification and aesthetic appeal

Applications for Stainless Steel Cable Ties:

These ties are recommended for environments where chemical and corrosion resistance is paramount and excel in extreme conditions. Common applications span across industries such as utilities, automotive, pharma, chemical processing, aerospace, and nuclear energy.

The Stainless Steel Cable Ties are designed for exceptional strength in adverse weather conditions and under vibration, ensuring long-lasting durability.

Grade Comparison: 304 vs. 316 Stainless Steel Cable Ties

304 stainless steel is versatile, widely used for various bundling needs, and offers great resistance to oxidation and corrosion in standard conditions. In contrast, 316 stainless steel is preferred for marine applications, thanks to its higher corrosion resistance and is suitable for extreme conditions including exposure to chemicals.

The differences between these grades primarily lie in their compositions; 304 consists of 8% nickel and 18% chromium, while 316 includes 2% molybdenum for additional chloride resistance.

Stainless Steel Cable Tie Tools:

Various cable tie guns enhance the installation of stainless steel ties. Manual guns, like the MK9SST can handle ties up to 16 mm width effortlessly, ensuring efficient tensioning without operator fatigue. Automatic options, such as the Auto tool CPK, streamline the process with push-button operation for threading, tensioning, and cutting.

Using stainless steel cable ties has never been simpler. With straightforward installation techniques and the option for reusable designs, these ties present an ideal solution for bundling needs across industries.

If you're interested in more durable fastening solutions, consider exploring our offerings like 304 Stainless Steel Cable Ties or Nylon Cable Tie.

Conclusion:

Stainless steel cable ties are the superior choice for applications demanding durability, strength, and resistance to harsh environments. Their versatility ensures suitability for a wide range of industrial and domestic uses, solidifying their status as an essential component in many sectors.
