Dual Handcuff Zip Ties

A dual handcuff zip tie forms two separate loops from one tie, like a pair of handcuffs. It holds two hoses or looms next to each other without letting them rub. They are 12.7mm wide black nylon 66, in 330mm and 490mm lengths, and you can buy them singly or in packs of 50.

What they are for

They are used on hydraulic lines and on trucks to keep heater hoses, wiring harnesses and air-conditioning hoses apart, so heat and vibration do not wear one line against another.

To bundle hoses together rather than keep them apart, use 12.7mm black zip ties. For two light wiring runs, double head zip ties are smaller and cheaper.

Common questions

Single or pack of 50?

Singles suit a one-off repair; the 50 pack costs less per tie for fleets and workshops. 12.7mm x 330mm (50 Pack), 12.7mm x 330mm (Single), 12.7mm x 490mm (50 Pack), 12.7mm x 490mm (Single).

330mm or 490mm?

The 330mm suits pairs of heater hoses and small hydraulic lines; the 490mm takes larger hose pairs and thick looms.
