A cable tie (also known as a hose tie, panduit [1], tie wrap, wire tie, zap-straps, or zip tie) is a type of fastener for holding items together, primarily electrical cables and wires. Because of their low cost, ease of use, and binding strength, cable ties are ubiquitous, finding use in a wide range of other applications.
Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and rustless steel, is an iron-based alloy containing a minimum level of chromium that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from the 10.5%, or more, chromium content which forms a passive film that can protect the material ...

A hurricane tie used to fasten a rafter to a stud. A tie, strap, tie rod, eyebar, guy-wire, suspension cables, or wire ropes, are examples of linear structural components designed to resist tension. [1] It is the opposite of a strut or column, which is designed to resist compression. Ties may be made of any tension resisting material.
The replacement ties may be fixed mechanically or with special adhesives. Galvanized steel ties are no longer in use for this reason. For a brief period, plastic ties were used but were not satisfactory. Modern practice is to use stainless steel ties. Cavity walls were traditionally spaced 2"(50mm) apart.
Galvanized rigid conduit (GRC) is galvanized steel tubing, with a tubing wall that is thick enough to allow it to be threaded. Its common applications are in commercial and industrial construction. [1] It is designed to protect wire and connectors. Intermediate metal conduit (IMC) is a steel tubing heavier than EMT but lighter than RMC. It may ...
Steel poles should meet industry specifications such as: TIA/EIA-222-G, Structural Standard for Antenna Supporting Structures and Antennas (current); TIA/EIA-222; Structural Standards for Steel; and TIA/EIA-RS-222, or an equivalent requirement set to help ensure a robust and good quality pole is being used. Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) poles
A twist tie with a broad paper covering may also be used for labeling. The wire is often made of stainless steel or galvanized steel with a diameter between 19 and 31 AWG (0.2 and 0.9 mm). [5] They were invented by Charles E. Burford in 1961. [7]
