Metallics CTTR8 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics CTTR8 cable tie reusable, or is it a one-time cinch?
The CTTR8 is a releasable tie, so the pawl can be lifted and the tie opened and re-tensioned rather than cut off. That is what you want on bundles you expect to add conductors to later, on temporary pulls, or on control panel wiring that gets serviced. If the bundle will never be touched again, a standard non-releasable tie is the cheaper choice.
2) What size bundle will an 8 inch cable tie handle?
The CTTR8 is an 8 inch tie, which is the common mid-length size for branch circuit bundles, flex whips, and panel harnesses. Overall length is 8 inches, so the usable loop is smaller than that once the tail passes through the head; for larger trunk bundles step up to a longer tie or double up.
3) Is the natural nylon CTTR8 tie OK for outdoor or UV-exposed runs?
Natural nylon is an indoor material. The CTTR8 is natural (undyed) nylon, which has no UV inhibitor, so for exterior, rooftop, or sunlit runs use a black UV-stabilized tie instead. Natural is fine inside panels, ceilings, walls, and conditioned mechanical rooms.
4) Do I need a special tool to install or release the Metallics CTTR8?
No tool is required. The 8 inch releasable tie is hand-pulled and the release tab is worked by hand or with a small screwdriver. A tensioning gun is only worth it for high volume work, and on a releasable tie you generally do not want a flush-cut gun since you are keeping the tail to re-open it.
