Cargoloc 32326 Nylon Cable Ties

Actual description copied from item: Ideal for tying, bundling and fastening For home, electrical and automotive applications Magic ties are re-usable self-gripping hook & loop straps Limited Lifetime WarrantyThese are not re-usable. These are 1-time use zip ties like all the others. As such, they're fine, but they're not what was described.

Several years ago, I bought a container of 1,000 cable ties, with nearly equal amounts of 4, 8, 11 and 14 inch ties. I ran out of all lengths at just about the same time a few weeks ago, except for the 4 inchers--the ones I used least. Unfortunately, that company went out of business.An Amazon search brought up CargoLoc's 650 piece canister. Unable to locate the lengths of the ties, I looked for clues: First clue: the label states "Industrial Grade," which to me suggests longer and stronger ties. Clue two: three lines of unreadably small white print on the label, which, I assumed listed three different lengths. Clue three: although the ties are covered by the canister's label, most appear to be longer than 4 inches.So, trusting CargoLoc's integrity not to fill the canister with cheaper, short ties, I took a gamble. Thanks to good old Amazon Prime, two days later my trust was "rewarded" with CargoLoc's container of 650 ties: 500 four inch ties (77%), for me the least useful, and only 150 eight inch ties (23%).I could have the returned the ties, but the postage plus driving time to the post office would only be additional waste.There is no ethical reason for omitting the lengths from the informational web page that appears when you click the CargoLoc image. Instead of using the space to list cable tie lengths, information that most consumers want, you see "Magic ties are reusable." Sorry folks, as with Zip Ties, once fastened, cable locks cannot be pulled apart for reuse (At least, I couldn't). The next line is "Limited Lifetime Warranty." However, CargoLoc's address or customer service number aren't on the container, making it difficult to take advantage of the "Limited Warranty" in the event of a cable tie failure.I still need plastic ties, but this time I'll order only from a brand that describes fully what they are selling. No more trust.

I've been using this a lot, and one supply goes a long way. I'm still using the 1st supply I bought a couple of years ago. If you do a lot of electrical wiring work, this comes in extremely handy. Made in Taiwan, which is a whole lot better than mainland China (some of Chinese made zip ties are known to break under moderate force and are literally useless). Note, however, this does not contain those super-long ties.

bought these for a store,Don't know

so far so good nylon is the way to go! i used some of the smaller black ones giving them a really good tug to get them nice and tight on my project. they did not snap infact i cut some of my wires with it from over tightening it lol.i recommend these to anyone in need of them.

Used for a multitude of things around the house. Good quality, would buy again.

I find only the "red" and "green" ties are of any value - the others, including anything longer than 4" - immediately break when trying to tie something. Keep in mind, I know "how" to tie things... they aren't meant to be steel-grade. But these just are not durable. They easily break, and I haven't been able to use them for anything (even tying together simple electric and computer cables). Not recommended.

Love the colors you can change from!

You get a good cross section of different lengths in this mix. The tie wraps themselves are general good quality but occasionally I've pulled one out that snapped easily when tightening it up. I've had no issues with the tab not gripping the indents and slipping back, they lock nicely. So far they also stood up well in cold weather which can be a real test for quality, if the plastic is really cheap the tie wrap breaks easily in cold weather with minimal stress.If it wasn't for a few of them breaking far to easily when being tightened I would give this product 5 stars.
