100 Cable Ties for hose and gaiter CTT60RDesigned to secure pipes, hoses and gaiters where low pressures are being secured.
This tie is the same as all other ties except that it has a radius on the head. The reason for this is so that you can zip tie a hose or fuel line and keep it tight all the way around. Ordinary zip ties leave a small spot where the tie doesn't make contact on the round object.
These are black color.
The neutral (white) are no good in the sun. The Ozone gets them and they crack.
These USA aftermarket ties will replace Mercury Marine 54-816311T,
Johnson/Evinrude/OMC 0320107, 320107
I have a Mercury 60HP 2 stroke. Three cylinders with 3 carbs. I have had to clean the carbs more than once. The fuel lines and oil lines are also clamped with these radius head zip ties. There is no room for other style clamps. It takes about 20 clamps if every hose is removed. They are hard to find in my small town. I figured other people have the same issue finding these special clamps.
The proper way to get the hose clamp tight is to hold the head of the tie in place with a flat blade screw driver and pull on the tail with pliers. They are very strong and will clamp evenly around the hose because of the radius head.
This auction is for a pack of 100. I offer other size packages of 20, 300 or 1000 ties.

clamps how to remove and some installation advise from a boat mechanic.:
"You can easily cut the ties off by using diagonal wire cutters. Hold the blade perpendicular to the hose and snip the head. You'll never touch the hose. The best dikes to use for this are flush cutters but just about any old pair will work.
Tightening is often abused. The hose, when installed on a properly sized barb, will have a hard time coming off by itself, let alone with a tie or clamp in place. All that is needed is a little pressure to reduce the diameter so the tie acts as a stop to keep the hose in place rather than as a force to seal the hose to the barb. The elasticity of the hose creates the seal. Crank down too tight on some plastic barbs and they will deform or break.
Also, many barbs are too short to install a clamp on with the proper clearances. Installing a clamp on a too short barb can lead to leaks."
