Cable Ties – Cable Ties, Zip Ties, Wire Ties
Cable ties are also known as zip ties, wire ties, bundling ties or fasteners. Before the invention of cable ties in 1958 by Thomas & Betts, manufacturers, companies and traders used to fasten and bundle items using tapes lacing cords and twines etc. This was not proper way to bundle. They needed a better bundling solution that would make the items and the bundles secure and would hold the load.
Later two engineers form Thomas & Brett invented a fastener called ‘Ty-Rap’. These cable ties were initially meant for aero plane harnesses. These initial
cable ties had ratchets made out of metal instead of nylon. These ties were time consuming to produce and were expensive.
With the development of technology, complete nylon cable ties were introduced. These ties were adjustable and had self locking. With more and more industries coming up, there were further progresses in cable ties industry. The design and material of cable ties was developed and redesigned to get the modern cable ties.
