Cable Ties for Routing & Management on Wind Farm Infrastructure
BAND-IT cable ties and management products are engineered solutions designed and constructed to meet the strictest quality standards and survive the harshest conditions for the bundling and secure fastening of data, control and high voltage power cables in wind tower locations – weather-proof and corrosion resistant cable ties are specified for tower lighting cables and weather monitoring systems at the top of the nacelle area where heat, UV and cold are all severe environmental factor. Additionally, salt atmospheres, ice frost damage and moisture exposure can lead to premature degradation of under-specified nylon or non-metallic cable ties – stainless steel cable ties provide excellent resistance to weather conditions, UV radiation, extreme temperatures, aggressive chemicals or fire.
Moisture & Destructive Weathering Effects on Cable Ties
Nylon cable ties exhibit performance and product failure overtime caused by operating temperature extremes and accelerated by high humidity conditions – cold or hot weather exposure to outdoor cable installations (especially dry arid and sub-zero locations) can cause the nylon cable tie pawl to break out of the head causing the tie strap to snap. Stainless steel cable ties provide high strength, permanent security and support for all types of LV MV HV cables in onshore and offshore industries.

Stainless steel cable markers are specified for long-term identification of onshore and offshore cables in harsh and hazardous area locations where standard cable labels are not suitable.
Stainless Steel Cable Ties
Cable Strapping & Banding
BAND-IT cables ties, strapping and banding manufactured from type 316 stainless steel – an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless and heat resisting steel with superior corrosion resistance.
316 stainless steel cable ties are specified for cable strapping and banding in offshore, marine atmospheres and hazardous area locations where cables are exposed to chemicals, hydrocarbons, salts, acids, and high temperatures. Type 316 has superior creep strengths at elevated temperatures and can be used to strap and bundle 11kV-33kV substation cables.
BAND-IT products are extensively specified for cable strapping and banding in the oil, gas, petrochemical and rail industry – typical applications include IEC 60092, BS6883, BFOU, RFOU, NEK606 and IEC60331 for fire resistance cable straps and support. Cable ties are used to provide intermediate support and restraint to LV HV cables installed to cable containment using cable cleats to ensure compliance with IEC61914 and 18th Edition Regulations.
