Snap Strip Stainless Steel Zip Tie 10 Pack 14" Long Locking

These work great. Frankly, I don't understand the reviews that claim that it was hard to apply or use these ties. I suspect those must be from people trying to use it to enclose something with circumference of nearly equivalent length to the usable length of the tie. They're probably used to plastic ties which you can grab and pull (and deform slightly in the process). Of course, the solution here is to either buy ties of appropriate length or use two. You're not going to "stretch" these ties.I had my concerns and after having used them, I'm pretty blown away. They accomplish exactly the job I want and behave just the way one would expect. I feel working with them in a tight space is just as easy/difficult as with nylon or plastic zip ties. They feel just as secure as the screw-type clamps with the flexibility of ties that you pull.The only thing to keep in mind - unlike some plastic ties, these are not designed for reuse. While it is possible to back one out, you're better off just cutting it off and learning from your mistake.

Good zip ties, but you will need a tool to pull it tightly. Doing it with plyers will damaged it, and will not get it as tight as you may want.

Worked for my tie rod boots. Still on there. I drive a Chrysler 300S.

i use these to wrap my bikes pipes they are the best positive locking

I used these to attach metal hanging flower baskets to my balcony railing and they were perfect. I was able to easily tighten them with needlenose pliers and cut them with regular scissors (carefully, since the cut edge is sharp). I was even able to color them with a black sharpie so they blended in with the black iron railing. They've lasted almost a year with no sign of loosening or wear. I couldn't be happier with this purchase.
