## Thomas & Betts Tefzel® cable ties for extreme conditions

Since 2007, we have been the go-to wholesaler for [Thomas & Betts cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/thomas-betts-cable-ties), including versions for the toughest environments. Tefzel® Ty-Raps are made of ETFE, a fluoropolymer that is inert to most solvents and chemicals, hydrolytically stable and non-outgassing. You can recognise them by their aquamarine colour.

They remain reliable from -45 °C to +150 °C and resist radiation and UV. The head holds a marine-grade stainless steel barb that locks the strap at any point. With a UL94 V-0 flammability rating, they are also suitable where smoke generation is a risk.

## Frequently asked questions about Tefzel® cable ties

### What is Tefzel®?

Tefzel® is the brand name for ETFE (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene), a fluoropolymer. It refers to the material of the tie, not its colour; Tefzel® Ty-Raps themselves are aquamarine.

### Up to what temperature can Tefzel® cable ties be used?

According to Thomas & Betts, from -45 °C to +150 °C. They can even be installed down to -60 °C.

### Why are Tefzel® cable ties aquamarine?

The aquamarine colour makes the fluoropolymer ties instantly recognisable, so they are not mixed up with ordinary nylon ties.
