Thomas Betts TY24M-2 Standard Cable Tie 5.5in Red Nylon

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS TY24M-2 is a standard nylon cable tie designed for bundling and securing wire harnesses, conduit runs, and cable assemblies in electrical, HVAC, and general trade applications. At 5.5 inches in overall length with a 40-pound tensile strength, it handles light-to-medium bundling tasks reliably. The red color aids in color-coded identification on job sites or in panels. UV-resistant nylon construction makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations where sunlight exposure is a factor. Each tie is 0.14 inches wide and 0.041 inches thick, with a maximum bundle diameter of 1.38 inches. This SKU is sold in a package quantity of 1000 ties.

The TY24M-2 suits residential and commercial electrical work, HVAC wiring runs, panel terminations, and general mechanical bundling. Electricians and HVAC technicians use these ties to dress low-voltage and line-voltage conductors, secure sensor leads, and organize wiring inside air handlers, rooftop units, and control cabinets. The red color is commonly used to designate specific circuit groups or phases. Operating temperature range of -40 degrees F to 221 degrees F covers most North American installation environments, including unconditioned attic spaces and exterior equipment enclosures.

Designed as a standard-duty cable tie for use in electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical applications wherever a 5.5-inch, 40-pound-rated nylon tie is specified.

Installation Notes

Cable ties are installed by licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors as part of wiring harness dress and conduit organization work. Tighten ties to secure the bundle without compressing insulation or restricting conductor movement. Use a flush-cut tool to trim the tail close to the locking head to avoid sharp edges that can damage adjacent wiring. In outdoor or UV-exposed locations, confirm that the UV-resistant rating meets the project specification before installation.
