Trending now

Cable ties help organize bundles of cables or wires. Small businesses commonly use cable or zip ties to secure wires inside computers or to secure cables at workstations. The ties slip on easily and are secure once in place.

Keep Cables Organized
Cable ties let you bundle your cables so that they remain in one place instead of gradually spreading out over the floor or desks. This helps prevent accidental trips or unplug incidents due to wayward cables.

Easily Slip Ties into Place
Most zip ties slip easily into place by pulling one end through the clasp. For even more secure clamps, check out the selection of cable tie guns designed specifically for these products.

Increase Airflow
Computer cooling systems commonly rely on airflow. Proper cabling ensures effective airflow and helps protect electronics from overheating.
