Cable ties for hazardous areas

Interconnection
Legrand’s extensive range of electrical products and systems for the industrial sector encompasses control and signalling devices, cable marking systems, terminal blocks, enclosures and industrial sockets, as well as transformers and power supplies.
An important component in Legrand’s industrial product range is Colson cable ties, designed for use in areas where there is exposure to aggressive chemicals, moisture, extreme temperatures and ultraviolet rays.
These flexible and corrosive resistant cable ties can withstand the effects of oils, greases, petroleum products, chlorinated solvents and saline mists. They have a humidity absorption under 2% and can endure temperatures between -40°C and +85°C. This range is also fire resistant, with a flame application time according to EN 50146 of 10 seconds.
Colson cable ties are available with halogen-free black polyamide, with external or internal teeth. This range has a minimum tensile strength of 22 daN (EN 50146) and a maximum ratchet force of 5,5 daN. A special tool used to tighten the cable ties ensures a tight and secure installation, and for a neat finish, excess material is easily cut off.
Accessories include screw-on, wall plug bases and DLP trunking bases, as well as screw-in wall plugs and bolts for cable trays and sheet metal.
