Tie Wrap

Tie Wrap is a strip fastener used for bundling and securing cables or items, typically made of nylon or plastic, with a self-locking function. In foreign trade, it falls under hardware or electronic accessories, commonly used in electronics, automotive wiring harnesses, and home organization. Usage scenarios include: when exporting and declaring customs, the material (e.g., nylon 66), specifications (length, width, tensile strength), color, and packaging method must be clearly stated; customers may require compliance with certifications such as UL and RoHS. Precautions: different countries impose different anti-dumping duties on manual tie wraps (e.g., the US imposes anti-dumping duties on Chinese-made tie wraps), so the HS code (usually 3926.90 or 8536.90) must be verified in advance. It is often used interchangeably with 'Cable Tie,' but 'Tie Wrap' emphasizes the bundling function, while 'Cable Tie' mostly refers to cable management; the difference from 'Tape' is that tie wraps are mechanical fasteners, not adhesive. Foreign trade contracts should specify whether 'Tie Wrap' and 'Cable Tie' are equivalent to avoid disputes.
