Thomas & Betts YLS-7.9-360BC - 360mm x 7.9mm - stainless steel, coated

Thomas & Betts YLS-7.9-360BC: wide, black-coated 316 stainless cable tie, 360 x 7.9 mm

On steel structures, aluminium cable trays and galvanised brackets, you do not want the tie itself to cause corrosion. That is exactly what the YLS-7.9-360BC is made for. Since 2007, we have been the go-to wholesaler for Thomas & Betts cable ties, supplying this wide, coated stainless tie mainly to installers in shipbuilding, offshore and industrial outdoor projects. At 360 mm long it bundles up to 100 mm.

Beneath the black layer is AISI 316 stainless steel. The coating is a low-smoke, halogen-free polyester that covers the entire strap. As a result, the stainless steel never touches another metal, no galvanic corrosion occurs, and the cable sheath is protected from the strap edges. The ball-lock engages automatically as you tighten it. Uncoated and narrower versions are listed among our stainless steel cable ties.

Suitable applications

• Cables on aluminium or galvanised support structures
• Electrical installations in engine rooms and on deck
• Cable bundles in tunnels and underground structures
• Cable runs on solar farms with aluminium frames

Frequently asked questions about the YLS-7.9-360BC

Which coating does this tie have exactly?

ABB uses a black polyester coating that is low-smoke and halogen-free. It covers the whole 316 stainless steel strap.

Why choose the YLS-7.9-360BC over the YLS-4.6-300BC?

Both are coated and made of 316 stainless steel. The YLS-7.9-360BC is longer at 360 mm and wider at 7.9 mm, and secures bundles up to 100 mm instead of 83 mm.

Is this tie suitable where smoke in case of fire is a concern?

The polyester coating is low-smoke and halogen-free, a key advantage in tunnels and enclosed spaces. The stainless steel itself does not burn.
