Frequently asked questions
What is a low-temperature (Arctic Flex) cable tie used for?
Arctic Flex low-temperature cable ties are engineered for cold-weather environments such as outdoor winter installations, cold storage, and automotive applications where standard cable ties can become too brittle to install or handle safely.
What temperature range can Arctic Flex cold-weather cable ties withstand?
Arctic Flex cable ties are rated for both installation and continuous operation from -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to 185°F).
What makes Arctic Flex cable ties different from standard nylon cable ties in cold weather?
Arctic Flex cable ties use a Nylon 6/6 - Low Temp formulation specifically engineered to retain flexibility and impact resistance down to -40°C, so they can be applied and tensioned by hand in cold conditions without cracking, unlike ties that are only rated to survive cold temperatures once already installed.
What tensile strength and length options are available in Arctic Flex cold-weather cable ties?
Arctic Flex cable ties are available in a Standard tensile tier (50 Lbs, 0.18 inch width) in 8, 11, and 14 inch lengths, and a Heavy-Duty tensile tier (120 Lbs, 0.29 inch width) in 14 inch length.
Are Arctic Flex cable ties UV and chemical resistant?
Yes. Arctic Flex cable ties include UV stabilizers to resist degradation from sun exposure, and resist a variety of chemicals including oils, grease, and petroleum products.
