Owl Tools8 inch Zip Ties Bulk Pack of 1000-50lb Strength - 8inches Cable Ties in Black and White

I'm a Christmas Light Installer, so I go through hundreds of zip ties a week, (hiding extension cords behind downspouts mostly). I've tried about 100 of these in total, 75 white ones and maybe 25 black. At most, 10/100 have held, the other 90 broke while trying to fasten them, even with a gentle touch. As soon as I feed the end through the head of the zip tie, the center of the head pops out, rendering it completely useless. Up on a ladder in the cold and rain, holding an extension cord in one hand and trying to zip tie with the other, then they break, gotta tug it out from behind downspout and try again. Makes me look pretty chumpy for a professional installer too. I just can't imagine out of all the experiences with these from reviewers who've truly used these that my situation is so rare, especially given the fact that I tried both the white & black ones and they failed just the same. Really makes me question Amazon Reviews sometimes. Never thought I'd be that guy to leave a review about a stupid zip-tie, but here I am. Out of hundreds of purchases through Amazon this year, I'll chalk this one up to being the most utterly useless out of the bunch.

The first 3 I used the clicker tab that locks it broke off. I would give a zero star or negative star if allowed. I will send back if it hasn’t been to long.

these are garbage don't buy them. when you to tighten them down the end piece that is supposed to grip the strap teeth breaks almost every time I try to use them. I threw them away. Big waste of money

These are the best zip ties I have ever used. They are top quality and do not break easily. The price was great, the shipping was fast and the packing was wonderful. I would highly recommend this product and this seller.

They zip and they tie but then they die. These things dont last long. They are too soft. They stretch and break easy. Tried nipping the end off and my cutters wouldnt even cut through. They just squished. Had to cut them with a knife

These tie straps are Perfect. Strong, Flexible, and 100% what I was hoping for. Even the teeth to hold the strap tight, are Very strong and made to last. Thank you Seller for such a Great product and at a great price too! ;-) Would give 10 Stars if I could. ;-) Enjoy them! ;-)

Sometimes you need to adjust the compression mechanism to get it to bite. When working with zip ties you just want them to work, you don’t want to fidget with them.

I've been using these for months now. They hold extremely well and stay tight. Can't complain one bit. What a deal too.
