And so it stays like this, HellermannTyton develops a new product every three days on average.
The reliability of cable management solutions is particularly important in the chemical industry, where conditions can be extreme. Cable ties in the PEEK Series can be used in temperature ranges between -55 and +240 °C, and are resistant to acids and radiation. PEEK Ties are lightweight, yet able to hold forces up to 230 N even though the band is only 4.5mm wide.

The EL-TY Series made of chemically-resistant polyacetale (POM) consists of an endless band with spacers and irremovable heads. These sturdy cable ties can be applied in any desired length to bind leads and thick cables, or to securely fasten identification mark carriers.

Time is an important factor in the chemical industry, with many products forming the basis of value-add chains in other industries. That is why HellermannTyton developed the revolutionary cable tie: the Q-tie. The open head design of the Q-tie allows for quick and simple installation even under the most challenging circumstances, like working with gloves or in restricted spaces. A unique pre-locking function makes temporary fixing possible. An officially adjudicated test by DEKRA confirmed that installing with Q-ties is 25 percent faster than with conventional cable ties. Q-ties not only help save time, they also contribute to lower production costs. What is more, Q-tag marker plates allow for easy identification and Q-mounts allow secure application of the Q-ties across many scenarios.

SST cable ties are the best solution for strength, durability, and resilience in even the harshest environments. Made from 316 grade stainless steel, these cable ties offer high performance and reliability for demanding applications.
Available in a wide range of sizes, the SST-series are engineered to withstand extreme conditions, including heat, corrosion, radiation, vibration, chemicals (acid), and weathering or exposure to UV and industrial pollutants. With their non-burning properties and ability to endure fire and high temperatures up to +538°C, they ensure safety and security in any application.
HellermannTyton also offers comprehensive fixing solutions made of metal for the chemical industry. For example, the MBT Series, with its irremovable stainless steel ball lock head for applications involving extreme loads and/or very high temperatures.

Resistance to aggressive chemicals and heat are key requirements for applications in the chemical industry – especially where highly sensitive heat sensors or pH measuring devices have to run smoothly in corrosive media. HellermannTyton’s TFE2/TFE4 polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) Heatshrink Tubing is extremely thin and highly resilient to abrasion, chemical influences and extreme temperatures. Available in 2:1 and 4:1 shrink ratios, the product is perfectly suited for protecting such sensors and pH measuring devices in the chemical industry.

Provide your measuring devices with reliable protection. Further information on TFE2/TFE4 Heatshrink Tubing can be found here.
With its lightweight, ergonomic design, the MK9SST cable tie gun is an ideal tool for applying the stainless steel cable tie series. Although it is used for applying stainless steel cable ties, the MK9SST cable tie gun enables work to be carried out without operator fatigue.
For easier handling the tensioning is fully adjustable by means of a quick two level control with an additional fine setting. This feature means that
damage to the bundled materials is easily avoided. The cable ties are automatically cut off flush with the head when the preset tensioning level has been reached.
Our cable management components made from Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (E/TFE) are built for performance in the most aggressive chemical conditions. This high-performance thermoplastic delivers outstanding chemical resistance, withstands temperatures up to +170 °C, and meets UL94 V-0 fire safety standards. With low smoke emission properties, E/TFE products are the ideal choice where safety and durability are critical – even in the harshest industrial settings.
