3M CT36NT175-L – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use this 3M cable tie in a plenum air-handling space?
Yes. The CT36NT175-L is plenum rated and carries a UL 94 V-2 flammability rating, so it is suitable for cable bundling in return-air plenums above ceilings. That is the detail that keeps an inspector off your back on commercial ceiling work, where a non-plenum nylon tie would have to come back out.
2) Does this 36 inch 3M tie meet a military spec for aerospace or defense wire harness work?
It is called out to MS3367-12-9, the military standard designation for this tie class, and it is made in the USA. Those two facts together are what government and defense procurement usually needs on a submittal for cable tie line items.
3) What is the difference between the 3M CT36NT175-L cable tie and the Burndy CTASST Unirap variety pack?
They solve different problems. The 3M CT36NT175-L is a single-size heavy-duty tie: 36 inches long, natural color, Nylon 6/6, handling bundle diameters from 1.5 inch up to 11 inch, supplied 50 to a pack. The Burndy CTASST is a Unirap series canister variety pack with an assortment of natural and black ties in mixed sizes. Use the 3M tie when every bundle on the job is a large conduit run or oversized harness and you want one consistent 36 inch tie; use the Burndy assortment when a service van or shop needs a range of tie sizes and both natural and black on hand.
4) What temperature and voltage can the 3M CT36NT175-L handle in an industrial panel?
Maximum operating temperature is 85 degrees Celsius (185 F) and the maximum recommended voltage rating is 600 V. That covers typical panelboard, enclosure, and motor-control wiring. For bundles running hotter than 85 C, or above 600 V, specify a different tie material.
5) Will a natural nylon cable tie hold up outdoors in sunlight?
The CT36NT175-L is Nylon 6/6 in natural (undyed) color. Natural nylon has no UV stabilizer package, so it is meant for indoor and protected applications, electrical rooms, panels, racks, ceiling spaces. For sustained outdoor sun exposure, specify a UV-resistant black tie instead.
6) Is the 3M CT36NT175-L strong enough for bundling heavy conduit runs and vibrating equipment?
It is rated 175 lb tensile, which is heavy-duty class for a nylon tie and holds under sustained tension and vibration. Pair that with 36 inches of strap and it is aimed at large conduit groups, oversized harnesses, and data center rack runs rather than light trim-out bundling.
7) I only need to bundle a few small cables - is the 3M CT36NT175-L overkill?
For small bundles, yes. The 3M CT36NT175-L is a 36 inch tie with a minimum bundle diameter of 1.5 inch, so it leaves a long tail on anything smaller and is intended for large-diameter conduit runs and oversized harnesses. For mixed small-bundle work, the Burndy CTASST Unirap canister variety pack supplies an assortment of shorter ties in natural and black. Keep the 3M 36 inch tie on the truck for the large runs the short ties cannot close.
8) Which cable tie should I standardize on for a facility that needs a documented military spec?
The 3M CT36NT175-L lists MS3367-12-9 as its mil spec, along with a 600 V maximum recommended voltage rating, UL 94 V-2 flammability, and Nylon 6/6 construction - the kind of line items a government or institutional submittal asks for. The Burndy CTASST is a Unirap series canister variety pack of natural and black ties, which suits general maintenance stock rather than a submittal that has to name one part number against a spec callout.
9) How many 3M CT36NT175-L ties come in a pack?
Fifty ties per pack, all natural color, model CT36NT175-L. If you are standardizing a facility on one heavy-duty tie, that pack size covers a sizeable conduit or rack run without reordering mid-job.
