# Thomas & Betts TY232M - 203mm x 2.4mm - natural ## Thomas & Betts TY232M: slim natural 203 x 2.4 mm cable tie, box of 1000 Fine control and signal wires in a panel deserve something more delicate than a chunky tie. That is where the TY232M comes in: a slim, natural Ty-Rap measuring 203 mm long and 2.4 mm wide. Since 2007, we have been the go-to wholesaler for [Thomas & Betts cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/thomas-betts-cable-ties), and this miniature size is a regular order for panel builders and electronics assemblers. The box of 1000 is sized for people who wire every day. The strap is made of halogen-free polyamide 6.6 rated UL94 V-2 and has no ratchet notches, so it locks steplessly at any point. The low-profile head holds a grade 316 stainless steel barb that digs into the strap as soon as you pull it tight. Even a small bundle of thin conductors stays firmly in place, with no slipping back.

The uncoloured polyamide is not UV-stabilised, so it belongs indoors. ### Where this miniature tie earns its place - Control wiring and terminal strips in panels - Wire harnesses in appliances, metering cabinets and electronics - Thin network and signal cables behind racks - Sensor and relay wiring in machine controls Need a light-coloured tie in another size? Take a look at our [white cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/white-cable-ties). If you fit large numbers, a [cable tie tool](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/cable-ties_pliers) saves time and gives consistent tension with a clean, flush cut. ## Frequently asked questions about the TY232M ### Can I use the TY232M outdoors? We would advise against it. According to ABB, natural polyamide is not UV-stable and can become brittle in sunlight over time. For outdoor work choose the black TY232MX in the same size, or the TY5232MXR if you need a smaller quantity. ### Is 80 N of tensile strength enough for my job? For thin conductors and light cables, yes. If the tie has to carry real load, choose a wider strap: a wider cable tie offers higher tensile strength, such as the TY242M at 178 N. ### Why is the head so low? The low profile means the head barely protrudes, so nothing catches when you feed cables into trunking or close a cabinet door.
