ABSTRACT:
An improved orientation means for a cable tie delivering system is adapted to complement a cable tie delivery system and includes an elongated conduit for orientation of an elongated, generally planar cable tie therein. The elongated conduit orients either a symmetrical or a single-directional cable tie in a delivery hose extending between a cable tie application tool and a dispenser from which such a cable tie is ejected. The conduit achieves proper orientation of the cable tie by requiring the cable tie to bend as it travels from the dispenser to the tool. By confining the cable tie once it has achieved the desired orientation the conduit retains the cable tie therein for accurate delivery to the installation tool and proper application to a bundle of articles to be tied.
