Gardner Bender 49-436P Plenum Cable Tie

Product Description

The GARDNER BENDER 49-436P is a plenum-rated cable tie designed for use in air-handling spaces where building codes require low-smoke, flame-retardant materials. Plenum cable ties are specified wherever standard nylon ties are not permitted by fire code, including HVAC plenum cavities, dropped ceilings used as return-air plenums, and air ducts. Electricians and HVAC technicians install these ties to bundle and manage wiring runs in code-sensitive environments. The 49-436P is sold individually, making it easy to order exact quantities for a given job.

This cable tie is suited for commercial and residential installations where the air-handling plenum space doubles as a wiring pathway. Typical applications include bundling low-voltage control wiring, data cables, or power conductors routed through ceiling plenums, HVAC ducts, and similar enclosed air-circulation spaces. Use where local codes, the NEC, or NFPA 90A mandate plenum-rated materials for cable management hardware.

Key Features

• Plenum-rated construction meets fire and smoke requirements for air-handling spaces
• Suitable for bundling low-voltage and power conductors in plenum environments
• Single-unit packaging allows precise quantity ordering with no minimum bundle requirement
• Lightweight at 0.195 pounds per unit, minimizing added load on cable bundles

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use plenum cable tie compatible with standard cable tie mounting and bundling applications in plenum-rated electrical and HVAC installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or HVAC technicians working in plenum spaces. De-energize all circuits in the work area before handling conductors or installing cable management hardware. Follow NEC Article 300 and NFPA 90A requirements for plenum-rated materials when selecting and installing cable ties in air-handling spaces. Do not substitute standard nylon ties for plenum-rated ties in code-required locations.
