What are outdoor cable ties designed to withstand?

Outdoor Cable Ties

For outdoor use, cable ties must be designed to withstand moisture, direct sunlight and extreme heat. For that reason, UV and heat-stabilized cable ties have been invented. Usually made of a durable nylon material, outdoor cable ties work where other ties would eventually break down and crack. For heavy-duty loads, a durable cable tie is especially important due to safety issues that could arise from large, fallen cables.
