Ideal Industries B-6-40-0-C – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How big a cable bundle will a 6 inch cable tie actually hold?
The Ideal B-6-40-0-C tie is 6 inches long and wraps bundles up to 1.5 inches in diameter. That covers most branch circuit runs in a panel, a small Cat6 bundle in a rack, or a wire harness. If your bundle is thicker than 1-1/2 inches, step up to a longer tie rather than trying to stretch this one.
2) Can these cable ties be used in a plenum ceiling or air handling space?
Yes. The Ideal 6 inch black nylon tie is plenum rated, so it can be used in air handling spaces and HVAC plenums where building codes restrict what materials may be installed. It is also UL Listed and CSA Listed for electrical work on both sides of the border.
3) Will black cable ties hold up outdoors in direct sun?
That is what this one is built for. The nylon is UV stabilized and the black pigment is the reason it survives sunlight, so it works on exterior electrical and telecom runs as well as indoors. Natural or colored ties without UV stabilization chalk and snap outdoors; this one is rated for indoor and outdoor use.
4) What temperature range can the Ideal 6 inch nylon cable tie handle?
Minus 40 F to plus 185 F (minus 40 C to plus 85 C). That covers unconditioned attics, exterior walls, and cold storage or northern outdoor work. For anything running hotter than 185 F, such as tight against a hot flue or high-temp process equipment, you need a stainless or high-temp tie instead.
5) Are these cable ties reusable or one-time use?
One-time use. The head is self-locking, so once the tail is pulled through it ratchets and will not back off. To remove one you cut it. If you are dressing a panel that gets reworked often, a releasable or hook-and-loop wrap is the better call.
6) Will these cable ties survive contact with oil or cleaning chemicals in a plant?
The nylon resists oils, acids, and alkalis, which is why these get used on machine wiring and in industrial panels. Combined with the minus 40 to 185 F range, they hold up in manufacturing and shop environments where ties see splash and washdown.
7) How tight should cable ties be pulled on a bundle?
Snug, not crushing. Pull the tail until the tie seats against the cables without deforming the jackets, leave room for thermal expansion, then trim the excess flush with the head using diagonal cutters. Over-tightening on data cable is the fastest way to throw off performance, and a tail cut proud of the head leaves a sharp edge that cuts hands in a panel.
