Metallics CT27SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics CT27SS cable tie stainless steel, and what grade?
The CT27SS is a 316 stainless steel cable tie. Grade 316 is the marine or chloride-resistant austenitic grade, which is why it gets specified outdoors, on rooftops, in coastal air, in wastewater plants and in washdown areas where plain 304 or a nylon tie would not last.
2) What is the tensile strength of the Metallics CT27SS tie?
150 pounds minimum loop tensile. That rating is what the tie holds as a closed loop, not a lifting rating, so use it for bundling and restraint rather than suspending load.
3) Will a stainless steel cable tie hold up outdoors and in direct sun where nylon ties fail?
Yes. Nylon ties go brittle under UV and heat cycling, which is the usual failure on rooftop and exterior runs. The CT27SS is 316 stainless, so UV is a non-issue and it tolerates high ambient temperatures and corrosive atmospheres.
4) What part number do I order for the Metallics 27 inch 316 stainless cable tie?
Order Metallics CT27SS. One model covers the 27 inch, 316 stainless, 150 pound tensile tie.
5) Do I need a special tool to install stainless steel cable ties?
Stainless ball-lock ties like the CT27SS are hand-threaded and pulled tight, then the tail is cut off. A tensioning and cut-off tool made for stainless ties gives a consistent tension and a flush cut, which matters because a hand-cut stainless tail leaves a sharp edge. Side cutters will work for occasional use.
