Phoenix Contact’s cable-tie range forms a foundational solution for cable routing, bundling and fixing in control cabinets, machine installations, panels and demanding industrial applications. Whether you’re building a complex automation panel or performing a field retrofit, the right cable-tie system ensures tidy wiring, service friendliness and compliance with installation standards. Phoenix Contact offers a broad spectrum: from standard nylon ties to stainless-steel heavy-duty versions for harsh environments.
Phoenix Contact Nylon Cable Ties (Standard & UV/Infra-red)
The standard nylon ties in the Phoenix Contact range are designed for everyday routing of cables in control cabinets, panels and routing channels. Key technical highlights:
- Material: Polyamide 6.6 (PA 6.6), halogen-free, silicone-free.
- Sizes: e.g., width 2.6 mm x length 160 mm (item 3240737) with tensile strength ~80 N.
- Operating and installation temps: ambient –40 °C to +85 °C; short-term peak +110 °C.
- UV-resistant versions available for outdoor/exposed use (e.g., “WT-UV HF” series) ensuring longevity in sun-exposed routing.
These ties serve as cost-effective, high-volume stock for panel-builders and wiring installers.
Phoenix Contact Stainless-Steel Cable Ties & Heavy-Duty Versions
For challenging environments (outdoors, offshore, chemical plants, high-temperature zones), Phoenix Contact stainless steel and heavy-duty ties meet stricter demands:
- Example: WT-STEEL S 4.6 × 360 (item 3240810) — material AISI 304 stainless steel, tensile strength 890 N.
- Temperature range: –80 °C to +538 °C for certain models—suitable for furnace, boiler or high-ambient routing
- Versions include ball-lock mechanism, no removal once fitted (permanent fix), resistant to corrosion/UV.
These are ideal for premium stock in distributors catering to industries such as oil & gas, marine, high-temp manufacturing.
Phoenix Contact Releasable Cable Ties, Mounts & Wire-Management Accessories
Beyond fixed ties, the Phoenix Contact portfolio includes flexible, reusable ties, mounting bases and wire-management aids. Features to note:
- Releasable ties (allow bundling and later access) useful for maintenance, retrofits or service-zones.
- Cable-tie bases or fastening lugs: tie can be fixed into panel or DIN-rail mount, ensuring secure routing and avoiding free loops.
- Colour-coded or metal-detectable ties: e.g., blue detectable ties for food or clean-room use.
These accessories enhance serviceability and organization in control-cabinet wiring—valuable for panel-builders and installers
Portfolio Structure & Application Fit
For inventory and catalogue clarity, the Phoenix Contact cable-tie range can be grouped into:
- Standard Nylon Ties – everyday bundling in control cabinets, bundling harnesses, general routing.
- Heavy-Duty / Stainless Steel Ties – harsh-environment routing, high temperature, outdoor, corrosive conditions.
- Releasable Ties & Mounts / Wire-Management Accessories – service friendly ties, mounting bases, detectable ties.
This segmentation helps wholesalers and distributors align stock with application-type: general panel build → heavy-duty installations → maintenance/retrofit wiring.
Wholesale Supply Advantages
Working with a distributor for Phoenix Contact cable-ties gives clear B2B benefits:
- Recognised brand: Phoenix Contact is well known in industrial automation, interconnection and panel-build hardware.
- High-quality product specifications: detailed tensile strengths, material specs, temperature ratings—all documented.
- Stocking both everyday and premium variants allows address of both high-volume wiring builds (nylon ties) and niche/high-spec projects (stainless steel, detectable ties).
- Cross-sell potential: cable-ties with cable-ducts, rail-mount systems, terminal blocks, connectors—raising cart-value and reducing handle count.
- For the page and site: unifying the various cable-tie types under one brand category increases customer trust and simplifies specification for panel-builders, OEMs and installers.
