A cable tie is a one-piece fastener that forms a self-locking loop to bundle cables, wires, hoses, or rebar.
Nylon ties dominate indoor and light-duty outdoor jobs.
Stainless-steel ties handle extreme temperature, corrosion, and load.
Nylon: Fastest install, lowest cost, color-coding.
Stainless: Highest strength, widest temperature span, longest service life.
