## How do you attach a cable tie?

[A cable tie](en/closure-materials/cable-ties) (also known as a bundle tie) quickly holds cables and pipes together. The pointed end is inserted through the head; once the strap passes the 316 stainless steel locking mechanism, the metal tab engages and the tie cannot be loosened.

For the wider TY25MX and larger quantities, a  [tyrap tool](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/cable-ties_pliers) is recommended. This tightens the tie evenly and cuts off the excess part immediately, so there are no sharp ends left behind.
