rapstrap i-Tie is our second generation waste-reducing tie strip. It is currently available in 5mm and 6mm sizes.
The i-Tie was specifically designed to utilise a wide range of materials by employing an internal latching system. This makes it less stretchy than our Classic 1030 rapstrap and more suitable for short-term applications or those that require a firmer grip.
Like the Classic, the i-Tie design is self-terminating, and this allows unused portions to be simply cut off and used again. A single strap can therefore provide several ties, greatly reducing waste: Simply fit, cut, and repeat until the whole strap is used up.
i-Tie also features a unique super-quick release mechanism - no other tie strip is as fast or convenient to remove and reuse!
Rapstrap i-Ties are available ex-stock in our standard polyurethane material (black, natural or green), but can be supplied in a firmer TPU grade if required. Other colours and fire retardant polyurethanes are also available on request. (MOQs may apply.) We even produce a glow-in-the-dark version for night-time safety marking!
