How To Get Best Results When Cutting Cable Ties
Cable Ties, also known as tie wraps or zip ties, are commonly used in the industrial sector for bundling wire, cable, and cords to keep them neat and organized.

Xuron Corporation’s Model 2275 Cable Tie Cutter offers an effective and safe solution for cutting plastic and nylon cable ties up to 7 mm wide. It leaves a nice flat cut on the cable tie.
