Keeping your communications and power cables properly and safely installed in harsher environments such as Shipbuilding, Oil & Gas, and Chemical processing plants, as well as other similar applications, can be a challenge. However, it needs to be taken very seriously, . otherwise the facility and personnel are being placed at elevated risk of injury or other adverse effects.
In order to ensure that proper cable fastening solutions are being implemented in these harsh environments, many times stainless steel cable ties will be specified for use. However, not all stainless cable ties are created equal, and it is critical to thoroughly evaluate available options in order to choose the one that is safest and most reliable.
First, it is important to procure at least 304 grade stainless for these harsh environments, and in many cases, going up to 316 is more prudent, when ultimate corrosion protection is needed.

Secondly, the installers will be handling these cable ties for extended periods of time, so aside from ensuring to wear gloves, another critical thing to look at is how smooth the tie edges are. The rounder the edge, the more safe and easy it is for installers to use.
In many of these Oil & Gas or Shipbuilding applications, vibration is a regular occurrence, which can cause movement of the installed cables, or worse, loosening and unraveling of the cable bundles, which would be dangerous. For this reason, it is critical to use tested, validated and industry-leading stainless steel cable ties that employ a robust design and will not loosen over time. This ensures that the cable infrastructure stays intact and safe, even during severe vibrating events.

Along similar lines, what is also needed in these applications are cable ties that have high loop tensile strength ratings, also known as the breaking strength of the tie. Measured in Newton or Pounds, the higher the loop tensile value, the stronger the tie. Utilizing a product family that offers a wide array of loop tensile strength options, covering all of your needs, will ensure that you are safely covered, while maintaining overall costs of operation.
