ABSTRACT:
A tote box retainer made from a cable tie having a tear tab that is attached to the main strap of the tie on one side near a strap-teeth, engaging-pawl enclosure and extending alongside the enclosure in a direction inline with the strap, there being at least one channel in the strap between the pawl enclosure and edge of the tear tab closest to the enclosure producing a web that connects the strap and enclosure wherein a centerline in the channel does not rotate through more than about 60° and the web does not extend completely to the edge of the strap opposite the tear tab leaving a thick portion in the strap for reinforcement. Other variations replace the thick portion with a second tear tab reinforcing an extension of the web or relocate the web away from the pawl enclosure.
