The cable tie UB100A-B-PA66-BK-C1 from HellermannTyton is a plastic fastening element designed for bundling and securing cables, wires, and hoses in installations. It features an internal toothed mechanism that ensures secure locking, and is fully made of PA66 (polyamide 66), a robust plastic suitable for its mechanical strength and resistance to environmental influences. The cable tie is black in colour, allowing it to blend inconspicuously into technical installations and systems. Installation can be performed manually or using a special processing tool, enabling efficient and precise mounting.

Applications
This cable tie is intended for use in indoor installations, particularly in areas of electrical and IT technology where reliable securing of cable bundles is required. It is suitable for bundling cables, wires, and hoses in enclosures, distribution boxes, machine installations, or during cabling of IT infrastructures. The internal toothed mechanism ensures that the cable tie cannot be released once tightened, providing a permanent and secure fixation.

Functions and Features in Detail
The cable tie is entirely made of plastic, making it lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and electrically insulating. The internal toothed mechanism enables secure locking as soon as the tie is tightened. Installation can be done by hand, which is suitable for small quantities or spot fastenings, or with a processing tool, which increases work speed in larger installations or series assembly. Using a tool ensures uniform tensioning and prevents over-tightening, which could lead to material breakage.

Technology Explained Simply
The toothed mechanism inside the cable tie operates on the principle of a ratchet and locking system: when tightening the cable tie, the teeth engage into the corresponding groove in the head of the tie, creating a secure lock. The PA66 material offers high tensile strength and resistance to mechanical stress, as well as to moisture and temperature fluctuations. The black colour is not only visually inconspicuous but also resistant to UV radiation, which is beneficial for prolonged exposure in indoor environments.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cable tie is compatible with various processing tools, including the EVO7i tool (part number 110-77001), the EVO7iSP tool (part number 110-77002), the MK20 BLAU tool (part number 110-20006), and the MK10-SB tool (part number 110-10001). These tools support efficient installation, especially in larger-scale projects.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by simply threading the cable tie through the bundle to be secured and then tightening it until the teeth engage in the head of the tie. When installing manually, care must be taken not to over-tighten to avoid material breakage. When using a tool, tensioning is controlled and uniform, enabling higher installation quality.

Operational Advantages
The cable tie provides a simple, fast, and reliable fastening solution for cables and wires. The full plastic construction ensures high insulation properties and corrosion resistance. The internal toothed mechanism guarantees permanent locking, which cannot be released, enhancing the safety of the installation. Compatibility with various tools allows flexible application in different mounting scenarios.
