How To Get Best Results When Cutting Cable Ties

April 30, 2024 by Abby Robey 4 Comments

Xuron® Model 2275 Cable Tie Cutter.

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. Consumers also regularly use them to secure totes, luggage, and retail items. Their strength makes them appealing, but when cut without the right tool, it’s easy to cut or scratch yourself with a sharp edge. Our Cable Tie Cutter makes the task easier and safer.

Cable ties should always be cut flush to the termination point, leaving no spike on the cut end. This is especially important in a manufacturing environment. The spike could cause scratches or cuts to people doing wire and cable work.

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.
