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
combinations of conditions which may arise, it is suggested that this data be used as a guide. Sample
cable ties should 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.
