The TY527MXR cable tie from Thomas + Betts is a black-coloured, UV-resistant steel-nose cable tie made of polyamide 6.6, specifically designed for outdoor installations. It features a corrosion-resistant, antimagnetic steel nose made of stainless steel type 316, ensuring a secure and stable closure. The series is designed for use under vibration, extreme temperatures, and outdoor conditions, offering high mechanical strength. The rounded edges and contours of the head and strap ensure user-friendly handling and prevent damage to cable insulation. The smooth body without teeth or grooves reduces the number of overstressed points in the cable bundle. A slight nubbing on the inner side of the strap ensures a secure fit of the cable tie on the cable bundle. Packaging is in recyclable plastic bags with Euro holes, containing 2% carbon to meet military specifications.

Applications

The TY527MXR cable tie is suitable for outdoor installations where high mechanical loads, weather influences such as UV radiation, heat or cold, and vibrations occur. It is particularly suitable for use in industry, machine building, electrical installations, and systems operating under harsh conditions. The UV resistance ensures that the colour and mechanical properties of the cable tie remain intact even after prolonged sun exposure.

Functions and Features in Detail

The cable tie features a steel nose made of stainless steel type 316, which is corrosion-resistant and antimagnetic. This design ensures a durable, secure closure that holds even under high tensile loads. The surface of the cable tie is smooth and without teeth, minimizing stress on cable insulation. The rounded edges prevent damage to cables and wires. The inner side of the strap is slightly nubbed to prevent shifting of the cable bundle. Packaging in recyclable plastic bags with Euro holes enables easy storage and handling.

Technology Explained Simply

The cable tie is made of polyamide 6.6, a robust plastic known for its high strength and heat resistance. The UV resistance ensures that the cable tie retains its mechanical properties even under prolonged sun exposure. The stainless steel type 316 steel nose is particularly resistant to corrosion and magnetic influences, making it suitable for demanding environments. The smooth surface without grooves or teeth reduces the risk of material fatigue in cables. The nubbing on the inner side ensures a secure hold without damaging the cables.

Compatibility and Accessories

The TY527MXR cable tie is available in various lengths and widths and can be combined with additional accessories to meet specific requirements. The use of accessories depends on the specific application and installation requirements.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by simply wrapping the cable bundle and closing the steel nose. The rounded edges and smooth surface facilitate handling and prevent damage to cables. The nubbing on the inner side ensures the cable tie remains fixed to the bundle. Packaging in bags with Euro holes enables easy storage and retrieval of individual cable ties.

Operational Advantages
