The OBO Bettermann 3040 LGR is a grip ISO cable tie made of polystyrene (PS) in light grey colour (RAL7035), designed for secure fastening of cables and conduits in the field of electrical and installation technology. The cable tie features an adhesive foot, a long slot, and a mounting option for screwing onto M6 thread, enabling flexible use in various installation scenarios. Cable fastening is achieved using clamp screws, which allow stable and adjustable fixation. The cable tie is designed for cable diameters from 6 to 16 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of conductor cross-sections.
Applications
This cable tie is particularly suitable for securing cables to vertical or horizontal substrates such as masonry or concrete. Due to the adhesive foot, it can be mounted directly onto smooth surfaces without additional fastening elements. The use of Impu-Fix strip conduit quick adhesive type 509 is recommended to ensure durable adhesion. Alternatively, the cable tie can be fastened through the long slot using a screw on M6 thread, enabling a mechanically robust installation.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The design of the 3040 LGR allows for simple and quick installation. The adhesive foot enables a vibration-free attachment without drilling, thus preserving the surface of the substrate. The long slot allows for adjustable positioning of the cable tie, enabling precise placement even on uneven or slightly offset mounting points. The clamp screws provide a firm yet adjustable cable hold, which can be adjusted as needed without removing the cable tie.
Technology Explained Simply
The cable tie is made of polystyrene, a lightweight yet stable plastic suitable for use in electrical installations. The light grey colour (RAL7035) ensures discreet integration into technical environments. The combination of adhesive foot and long slot offers two mounting options: either by gluing onto smooth surfaces or by screwing. The clamp screws enable secure cable fixation, with pressure on the cable adjustable via screw tightening.
Compatibility and Accessories
The cable tie is designed for cable diameters from 6 to 16 mm. For mounting on masonry or concrete, the Impu-Fix strip conduit quick adhesive type 509 is recommended, specifically developed for use with polystyrene cable ties. The cable tie does not include any additional components or tools.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed either by adhering the adhesive foot to the desired surface, using the quick adhesive type 509, or by screwing through the long slot onto M6 thread. Cable fastening is achieved by tightening the clamp screws, with tension adjusted to securely hold the cable without causing damage.
Operational Advantages
The 3040 LGR provides a flexible and robust cable fastening solution, characterised by easy installation and high stability. The combination of adhesive foot and long slot enables adaptable installation, making the cable tie suitable for various projects. The use of clamp screws ensures a secure and adjustable hold, which can be adjusted as needed without removing the entire fastening. The cable tie is designed for use in electrical and installation technology, with no specific application restrictions mentioned.
