# Thomas & Betts Ty-Fast® cable ties *Ty-Fast® is the one-piece cable tie from Thomas & Betts: made entirely of nylon, with a locking pawl moulded into the head. Easy to insert, strong in its grip and ideal for everyday installation work. For the sizes we keep in stock: ordered on working days before 3:30 PM? Then your order will be shipped the same day.* ## Thomas & Betts Ty-Fast® cable ties: the all-round plastic tie Since 2007, we have been the go-to wholesaler for [Thomas & Betts cable ties](en/closure-materials/cable-ties/thomas-betts-cable-ties). Alongside the metal-barb Ty-Rap, Thomas & Betts offers Ty-Fast®: a cable tie made entirely of polyamide 6.6. The pawl in the head is moulded in one piece with the tie, combining low insertion force with high locking strength. The low-profile head is less likely to snag during installation, and the angled, turned-up tail is easy to grip even with gloves on. Ty-Fast® is halogen and silicone free and is used in construction, marine, transport and industry. ## Properties of Ty-Fast® cable ties **Brand**Thomas & Betts (ABB)**Product line**Ty-Fast® cable ties**Design**One-piece, with integral plastic pawl**Material**Polyamide 6.6, halogen and silicone free**Natural**-40 °C to +85 °C, for indoor use**Black**UV and heat stabilised, up to +115 °C (some types up to +105 °C)**Flammability rating**UL94 V-2**Standards and approvals**EN/IEC 62275, UL 62275, DNV-GL, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas## How to read the Ty-Fast® part number The part number tells you a lot about the tie.

A Ty-Rap locks with a stainless steel barb, a Ty-Fast® with a plastic pawl moulded into the head. That makes Ty-Fast® an all-plastic, cost-effective choice for general use. ### Can Ty-Fast® be used outdoors? The black version is UV and heat stabilised and therefore suitable for outdoor use. The natural version is intended for indoor use. ### Is Ty-Fast® suitable for marine use? Ty-Fast® meets classifications from DNV-GL, Lloyd's Register and Bureau Veritas, among others, and is widely used in shipbuilding.
