# Thomas & Betts TY5232MXR - 203mm x 2.4mm - black

## Slim black Thomas & Betts TY5232MXR Ty-Rap – 203 x 2.4 mm, bag of 100

When a bundle is light but still fairly large around, the TY5232MXR is a smart pick. Since 2007, we have been the go-to wholesaler for [Thomas & Betts cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/thomas-betts-cable-ties), and we see this slim tie used above all by installers who want to route thin signal, sensor or data cables neatly outdoors. Its 203 mm length closes around bundles up to 51 mm, while the narrow 2.4 mm strap is barely noticeable on the cable.

The strap is made of halogen-free polyamide 6.6, coloured black and stabilised against weather and UV. The low-profile head carries a 316 stainless steel barb that presses into the serration-free strap, so you can tension the tie in infinitely small steps and it stays locked in any position. You can read more about this locking principle on our [metal tooth cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/metal-tooth-cable-ties) page.

With a tensile strength of 80 N, the TY5232MXR is intended for light to medium bundles. That mix of generous length and narrow strap is handy when you need to hold many thin cables together without resorting to a heavy, wide tie. Being UV resistant, it can also be used on roofs and façades.

### Where this tie really pays off

- String cables and measuring leads on solar arrays
- Antenna, CCTV and coax cables along façades
- Garden and site lighting with thin supply cables
- Sensor and signal wiring on outdoor machinery

Need more holding force at the same length? Take a look at our [black cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/black-tyraps) with a wider strap. For heavier fixings, such as pipes on a frame, [heavy-duty cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/heavy-duty-tyraps) are the logical next step.

## Frequently asked questions about the TY5232MXR

### Is 80 N tensile strength enough for my job?

For bundles of thin cables, such as data and sensor leads, it is more than sufficient. If the tie has to carry weight or the bundle is under tension, choose a wider strap. The TY5242MXR is almost the same length but 3.6 mm wide and rated at 178 N.

### How does it differ from the TY232MX?

Both are black metal-barb Ty-Raps from the same size range. The TY5232MXR comes in a bag of 100, while the TY232MX is packed in 1000s for users who fit this size in large numbers.

### Will the metal barb rust outdoors?

No. The barb is made of 316 stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant, non-magnetic grade, and it sits enclosed in the head.
