I purchase a fair amount of our wiring and electrical supplies from Waytek. I thought that this was a clever add for their cable ties and all of the things that you might do with them.
Take a look at their website to see all of the materials that they have available.

Fun
Things to do With Waytek Cable Ties.
|
These days cable ties are giving duct tape a run for its
money. Generally known for their primary function of bundling
cables and cords, cable ties are a versatile product, increasingly
being utilized for a variety of creative purposes and
applications.

Heart
Surgery
Students
at John Hopkins University came up with the idea of using cable ties to
close up a chest after heart surgery. The ties are threaded through the
rib cage and fastened around the sternum.
Child
Proofing
If
you have little ones visiting your home, it doesn't make sense to
purchase and install child locks on your cabinets and doors. Use cable
ties to temporarily secure things from curious children.
Mix
and Match
You
can mix and match different sizes and varieties of Cable Ties within
each product group and receive the best possible quantity break pricing
available.
Gardening
In a garden, plants such as tomatoes often need assistance
to grow and stand up straight. By using some ties on a plant stake, you
will help to promote upward growth.
Emergency
Fasteners
When
a zipper or button busts on a pair of pants, a cable tie can hold
everything together. Likewise if you break a shoe lace.
Pet Care Can't find the dog's
collar? Try a zip tie. Just be careful not to secure it too tightly.
And if the precious pooch has chewed through yet another leash, create
a chain of cable ties for an insta-leash.
Handcuffs
Too many criminals and not enough hand-cuffs? Break out
some cable ties and secure the conniving thieves until the police car
reaches the station.
Travel
Bright, fluorescent cable ties can help identify a
suitcase at baggage claim. This can help avoid all sorts of hassles,
from thinking every black bag is yours to picking up the wrong
suitcase.
Keys
Keys are plentiful
enough without adding a fancy schmancy key chain to bulk up a pocket or
purse. Loop a cable tie through a set of keys and you're good to go.
Did You Know at WAYTEK most of
our cable ties and terminals qualify for mix-and-match quantity
discounts, and they're in stock and ready to ship the same day.*
This applies to most combinations of terminals and cable ties. The more
you order, the more you save!
For example, mix a variety of stainless steel tie sizes,
with nylon standard mounting ties, colored nylon cable ties and a
variety of mounting bases to receive the best quantity cable tie
pricing.
*on all in stock orders placed before 4:30 p.m. central
time.

ReplyDeleteIn my former job I was in charge of inventory managment for a whole sale distributor for electrical suppylies. Zip ties were a product that moved very quickly. We used them all the time to secure signs even the brakets the held the fire extiguishers in place on our forklifts. I would honestly have to say they are duct tapes more high tech succesful second cousin.
