Metal-detectable Tie is suitable for applications in the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. A unique manufacturing process, adding metallic element to cable tie, enables the tie to be detected more readily than a standard cable tie.
Materials are colored blue to provide a good background color against most foods and drugs since few of them are blue in color.
The cable ties are constantly being cut-off and reinstall in a processing plant. Every time this is done, pieces of cable ties that are cut away have the potential to get into the food processing or packaging stream, and if undetected, shipped out the door in finished product.
1. Total metal dispersion throughout the tie
2. Can support quality assurance in the production of food stuffs, for example HACCP (the Hazardous Analysis of Critical Control Point)
3. Blue color for easy visual inspection
4. Greatly reduces risk of contamination
5. Magnetic and X-Ray detectable
