🔗 APTronix 10 Inch Black Nylon Zip Ties - 250 Premium Heavy Duty Cable Ties for Secure Wire Management Review

I purchased this kit of 250 heavy duty cable ties to assemble Martin's R-695 Skyscraper rat cage. The cage comes with metal C-rings, but I wanted to use zip ties instead if possible in case I had to easily break the cage at any time. I needed lots of zip ties rated for at least 50-60 pounds. It worked. It's been a few days and it looks like they're holding up well. Out of 250 I probably have about 100 left which is nice as I expected only 100 per zip from another manufacturer in about the same…

Other reviews of these tears are entirely correct. We used them to secure the twisted ends of our straps. In fact, about 25-35% broke, but when such a number breaks, all the others seem to break. They definitely don't have the 65-pound breaking strength that their supplement says. Totally disappointed - don't buy, listen to those who said they were broken. I imagine there are people here who haven't complained about them breaking because they didn't try to tighten them. What's even more…

These zip ties aren't bad, but given the Premium Heavy Duty label, I expected better performance. The failure rate is around 15-20% of the 210 or so (out of 250) I've used so far; Most of this is the inability of the "teeth" to face each other. Sometimes this happens when pumping. Other times they don't start from scratch. I've also had a few breaks where I pulled or tightened the zip tie. However, I expect this to be typical performance for a standard cable tie. UPDATE: I have to say that…
