Panduit BT5LH-C Cable Tie 120 Lb 18.1 in Natural Nylon

Product Description

The PANDUIT BT5LH-C is a heavy-duty nylon cable tie designed for bundling, routing, and securing wire harnesses and cable assemblies in electrical, datacom, and industrial applications. At 18.1 inches long with a 0.275-inch width and a barbed locking mechanism, it delivers a rated tensile strength of 120 pounds. Constructed from natural-colored nylon, this tie is suitable for general-purpose indoor installations where UV exposure is not a primary concern. It is installed by electricians, data installers, and panel builders working with larger cable bundles that require a long, high-strength fastener.

This tie is well suited for residential and commercial electrical panels, telecommunications racks, industrial control cabinets, and HVAC wiring harnesses. The 18.1-inch length accommodates bundle diameters up to 5 inches, making it effective for consolidating large runs of conductors or grouped conduit feeds. Its rated temperature range of -76 degrees F to 185 degrees F covers most standard indoor environments including mechanical rooms and equipment enclosures. Installers working in both new construction and retrofit scenarios will find this length useful for reaching around dense cable groups.

Installation Notes

Cable ties of this type are installed by electricians and low-voltage technicians following NEC bundling and support requirements. Pull the tie tail through the locking head until the desired tension is reached, then trim the excess tail flush using diagonal cutters or a cable tie tensioning tool to avoid sharp edges. Always de-energize circuits before working in live panels or enclosures. Avoid over-tightening, which can damage conductor insulation on sensitive wiring.
