Push-Mount Cable Ties.

What are Push-Mount Cable Ties?

Push-mount cable ties, also known as push-in cable ties are innovative fastening solutions designed for efficient cable management. These cable ties feature a unique design with a built-in mounting head that includes a push-in anchor and tensioning wings.

The anchor is engineered to fit securely into pre-drilled holes or panels with diameters ranging from 4.6mm to 6mm. Once inserted, the anchor locks into place, providing a stable mounting point without the need for additional hardware. The tie itself wraps around cable bundles with diameters between 25mm and 50mm, securing them tightly and neatly.

How Push-Mount Cable Ties Work

Push-mount cable ties simplify the process of organising and mounting cables by combining both functions into a single component.

To use a push-in cable tie, you bundle the cables together and insert the push mount head into a compatible hole on a panel or chassis. This design is especially beneficial in industries like automotive manufacturing, where automotive push-mount cable ties are utilised to secure wiring harnesses within vehicles.

For instance, they are commonly used to manage engine bay wiring or to route cables underneath dashboards, enhancing both safety and aesthetics. In electronics, these ties help organise the internal wiring of devices, ensuring optimal performance, efficient airflow and ease of maintenance.

Material Push-In Cable Ties Are Made From

Our push-in cable ties are made from high-quality nylon, a material known for its durability and resilience. Nylon offers excellent tensile strength, allowing the ties to withstand substantial stress without breaking.

Its inherent flexibility makes installation easy, even in tight or awkward spaces. Additionally, nylon is resistant to chemicals, oils and abrasion, which makes it suitable for harsh environments commonly found in automotive or industrial settings. This ensures that the push-mount cable ties maintain their integrity over time, providing a long-lasting solution for cable management.

Size and Type Push-Mount Cable Zip Ties Available

Accu offers a range of push-mount cable ties to suit various project applications. The lengths available span from 100mm to 201mm, accommodating different bundle sizes. They are capable of securing bundles with diameters from 25mm up to 50mm.

The push-in anchors are compatible with hole sizes between 4.6mm and 6mm, making them versatile for different mounting surfaces.

For specialised applications, you might also consider our range of releasable cable ties or stainless steel ties, which offer additional features like reusability or enhanced corrosion resistance.

FAQs

Q: Are push-mount cable ties suitable for outdoor use?

A: While our push-mount cable ties are made from durable nylon, they are generally recommended for indoor use. Nylon can be sensitive to prolonged UV exposure, which may cause it to degrade over time. If you need cable ties for outdoor applications or areas with direct sunlight, we suggest looking into UV-stabilised cable ties which are UV-resistant to ensure longevity.

Q: Can I remove and reuse push-mount cable ties after they've been installed?

A: Push-mount cable ties are designed for single-use to provide a secure and permanent hold around bundles. Once they are tightened and the excess length is cut off, they cannot be loosened without cutting the tie. The push mount however is possible to re-locate provided it is undamaged after removal. This can be done by pinching the wings together to allow the fixture to pass through the hole.

If you require a reusable solution, consider using our reusable cable ties, which can be adjusted or removed as needed without damaging the tie.
