Yes, this zip tie is strong enough!
FibreStrap has been rigorously tested and validated according to the Type 2 test, which is the standard for plastic cable ties. It demonstrates a tensile strength of 110N in compliance with IEC 62275:5:2018, ensuring reliable performance across various applications.
For scenarios requiring higher strength, FibreStrap's flexibility allows for a simple solution: double-looping the ziptie to enhance its load-bearing capacity.
