The LR55R-PA66-GN-Q1 cable tie from HellermannTyton is a releasable and reusable fastening element made of polyamide 66 (PA66), specifically developed for temporary applications. It features an extended tongue design that allows for easy and secure re-opening. The green colouring serves as a visual identifier and supports the organisation of cable bundles or wiring in installations, transports, or packaging solutions. The construction minimises accidental opening, ensuring reliable fastening even under moving or stressed conditions.

Applications
This cable tie is particularly suitable for applications requiring temporary fastening, such as transporting cable sets, packaging electrical components, or installing wiring during test and inspection phases. The colour coding facilitates identification and sorting of cable bundles, especially in complex systems or during maintenance work. Reusability reduces material consumption and supports sustainable workflows.

Functions and Features in Detail
The product features an external toothed design that gently grips the bundle, preventing damage to cables or wiring. The tongue of the cable tie can be released by simply lifting it upwards, enabling quick removal without tools. The locking mechanism ensures the cable tie does not open unintentionally, enhancing safety and reliability in use. The green colour is a visual feature that aids in distinguishing cable bundles.

Technology Explained Simply
The cable tie is made of PA66, a robust thermoplastic polymer offering high mechanical strength and resistance to environmental influences. The external teeth distribute tensile force evenly along the entire length of the cable tie, protecting the bundle from damage. The extended tongue design allows for easy re-opening without damaging the cable tie’s structure. The green colouring is not only aesthetic but also serves functional identification, especially in environments where visual differentiation is important.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cable tie is designed for use with cables, wiring, and other bundle materials requiring temporary fastening. It is available in various colours and materials, with the green variant (GN) specified here.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply wrapping the bundle and securing the cable tie via the tongue. Re-opening is achieved by lifting the tongue, which releases the lock. No additional tools or aids are required. Installation is quick and can be carried out even in confined spaces.

Operational Advantages
Reusability reduces material consumption and disposal costs. Secure fastening with minimal risk of accidental opening increases reliability in use. Colour coding supports organisation and identification of cable bundles, simplifying maintenance and inspection. The external teeth protect the bundle from damage, which is particularly beneficial for sensitive cables.
