FROM PRODUCTION TO USE: PLASTIC CABLE TIES
While plastic cable ties are used in many areas of daily life, most people associate them solely with the electrical and electronics sectors. However, the reality is much broader.
Cable ties are versatile fasteners widely used in many different sectors, including the automotive, aviation and aerospace, defense, agriculture and food industries, construction, solar energy systems, and rail transportation systems.
These products, with their wide range of applications, are an indispensable part of modern industrial processes thanks to their durability and ease of application.
What are Cable Ties?
A cable tie is a non-electrically conductive fastener made of thermoplastic material, usually polyamide (PA 6.6).
The sequential tooth structure on its surface makes cable ties both flexible and durable. The locking mechanism on its surface ensures a secure fit.
WHY ARE TORQUE CABLE TIES PREFERRED?
1. The Foundation of Quality Production: Correct Raw Material Selection
At TORK Fasteners, we prefer PA 6.6 (Polyamide 6.6), a raw material widely used in plastic cable tie production.
This material:
Provides high strength,
Enables dimensionally accurate production,
Delivers high performance suitable for its intended use,
Guarantees product compliance with standards.
2. Excellence in Production: Injection Molding Technology
TORK Cable Ties are manufactured from high-quality polyamide, and the injection molding method is used in the production process.
This method:
The granulated raw material is melted at high temperatures,
Injected into special molds at high pressure,
Quickly shaped using cooling systems,
Each product is produced with accurate measurements.
This technology enables high production efficiency and quality control. Thousands of products are produced from the same mold with the same precision.
Why Choose TORK Cable Ties When It Comes to Quality?
TORK Fasteners doesn't just focus on production; it ensures the functionality and reliability of its products at every stage. Quality assurance management is meticulously implemented throughout and after the plastic cable tie production process.
In this process:
Production stages are continuously monitored and optimized,
Product quality is controlled through testing and inspections,
Compliance with international standards is ensured.
The goal is for products to be functional, long-lasting, and safe.
TORK manages quality through a systematic process. This approach ensures the brand's reputation as a trusted and preferred brand in the industry.
What Should We Consider When Choosing a Plastic Cable Tie?
Choosing a plastic cable tie is crucial for product durability and functionality. Choosing the right cable tie is essential for both long-lasting use and a secure connection. Here are the key criteria to consider when making your selection:
1. Size
Products should be selected in the appropriate size and width for their intended use. Small or large ties can lead to poor performance when used in the wrong areas.
2. Material
UV-resistant and high-temperature materials should be preferred for applications outside or exposed to sunlight, in addition to standard products.
3. Color
While cable ties are generally black and white, colored cable ties are preferred in some applications. This allows for clearer separation of cable groups.
4. Tensile Strength
In areas where heavy loads are carried, cable ties with high tensile strength should be selected. This prevents the product from breaking or stretching.
How Should TORK Plastic Cable Ties Be Stored?
Proper storage of this product is just as important as the production process itself. TORK Fasteners conducts a professional storage process to prevent cable ties from deforming and to preserve them ready for sale.
Why Is Proper Storage Important?
The product's structure remains intact during storage.
The product is kept ready for sale.
Its performance and quality are maintained for a long time. Storage Considerations
Products should be stored in their original packaging.
Opened packages should be used as soon as possible.
Cable ties should always be kept in sealed plastic bags.
The storage area should be dry, cool, and away from direct sunlight.
Let's not forget: Storage directly affects product performance as well as production quality.
