Selecting the Proper Cable Tie Material for Your Application
By using this information as a guide, the user will be better equipped to select the best suited cable tie and
material to perform its intended function over a long period of time.
For long life and dependable service, there are many factors to consider when selecting the proper cable tie
for each application. Since it is impossible for Panduit to provide data on all the various combinations of
conditions which may arise, it is suggested that this data be used as a guideline and that sample cable ties
be tested under actual end-use conditions to determine the correct cable tie for the application.
To select the optimum cable tie for a specific application, the following table can be used as a quick
reference. First, determine the most critical design criteria and then read across the table to find which
material is most suitable to meet this need (10 = Most Suitable and 1 = Least Suitable). Next, review the
other criteria by scanning in a vertical direction on the chart and then make your final selection.
Example No. 1:
Application Selection
If your application requires high radiation (2 x 10
8
rads) resistance, excellent
resistance to hydrocarbons and the price is not critical.
Your best choice is TEFZEL or stainless steel. The price is higher than other
materials, but both have high ratings in resistance to radiation and hydrocarbons.
Example No. 2:
Application Selection
If your application requires a low cost material, good ultraviolet resistance and good
resistance to acid rains.
Your best choice is weather-resistant polpropylene which is less expensive, 6
rating in ultraviolet resistance and 9 rating on resistance to acids.
