Thomas + Betts 7TAG009120R0004 Cable ties TY26MX 284x3.6 mm black UV-resistant pack of 1000 content_copy

The TY26MX cable tie from Thomas + Betts is a steel-nose cable tie made of polyamide 6.6, specifically designed for installations in outdoor environments. It features a black UV-resistant surface that protects it against the effects of sunlight and weather conditions. The series is characterised by high mechanical load capacity and is suitable for use under harsh conditions such as vibrations, heat, or cold. The steel nose is made of stainless steel type 316, which is corrosion-resistant and non-magnetic, ensuring a particularly secure and durable hold.

Applications

The TY26MX is suitable for use in industrial plants, outdoor environments, and settings with high mechanical loads. It is frequently used in electrical installations, machine building, and automation technology, where reliable and long-lasting securing of cables and lines is required. The UV resistance makes it particularly suitable for outdoor applications where the cable ties are exposed to direct sunlight over long periods.

Functions and equipment in detail

The cable tie features a smooth body without teeth or grooves, reducing the number of overstressed points in the cable bundle. The rounded edges and contours on the head and band prevent damage to the insulation of cables and lines. The inner side of the band is slightly textured to ensure a secure and firm fit on the cable bundle. This design ensures user-friendly handling and prevents cutting through cable sheaths.

Technology explained simply

The use of polyamide 6.6 as the material provides high strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. The steel nose made of stainless steel type 316 is particularly resistant to corrosion, extending the service life of the cable tie in damp or saline environments. The non-magnetic property of the steel nose prevents interference in electrical and electronic systems. The UV resistance protects the material from ageing and discoloration due to sunlight, ensuring functionality over a long period.

Compatibility and accessories

The TY26MX is part of a comprehensive product family that includes various lengths, widths, and tensile strengths. Suitable accessories include, for example, cable ties in size 3.6x280 mm as well as T30LL PA66 BK 100 cable ties with dimensions 290x3.5 mm. These items can be used additionally depending on requirements to meet different securing needs.

Installation and mounting

Mounting is done by simply wrapping the cable bundle and locking the steel nose. The smooth surface and rounded edges facilitate installation without damaging the cables. The slight texture on the inner side ensures that the cable tie does not slip and provides a stable securing. The use requires no special tools; the securing can be done by hand or with a cable tie cutter.

Advantages in operation

The TY26MX offers high mechanical strength and long-term stability, making it suitable for demanding operating conditions. The combination of UV resistance, corrosion resistance, and non-magnetic steel nose ensures reliable function over a long period. The user-friendly design with rounded edges and smooth body reduces the risk of cable damage and facilitates installation. The high tensile strength and resistance to vibrations make it a robust solution for industrial and outdoor applications.
