Stainless steel cable tie prevents slippage
Panduit has designed a new stainless steel cable tie that prevents slippage on rigid bundles and eases installation.
Versatile system for wire termination
Panduit has just introduced its new CA9 Ezair Universal Applicator in Europe, which works with the most popular wire processing machines to terminate cable using reel-fed products
Panduit Super-Heavy (15.9mm wide) and Extra-Heavy (12.7mm wide) ties reduce traditional installation methods into three easy steps: loop, tension and cut.
The innovative displacement lock speeds up installation time, resulting in significant labour cost reductions and lowers total installed costs.
The new ties include all of the usual safety features of the Panduit MLT range: all edges are fully rounded with smooth surfaces to prevent damage to insulation on cables and adjacent bundles and to protect installers and maintenance workers from injury.
Furthermore, through a process known as slip-back, the ties leave no exposed edges after cutoff to guarantee a completely safe installation.
Engineered to withstand the most harsh environments and conditions, including corrosion, chemical attack and temperature extremes of -80 to +538C, the Extra-Heavy and Super-Heavy ties carry an estimated outdoor service life of 40 years, ensuring a greater ROI is achieved and reducing the need for expensive periodic rework.
The 304 and 316 grade stainless steel is nonmagnetic and offers superior performance and enhanced reliability.
A new tension-controlled installation tool is also available with a lever cutoff mechanism to guarantee a safe, flush cutoff on resilient bundles.
A ratchet style take up mechanism provides tensioning capability of up to 450kg for a secure installation.
