ABSTRACT:
A cable tie which can be used for bundling electrical wires or many other objects. The cable tie of this invention comprises an elongate strap of plastic material composed of a longitudinal channel on one side and transversal notches on the other. This cable tie secures the wires by inserting its tail through either side of its block head. When the tail of the cable tie is inserted into the aperture located on a first side of the block head, the said cable tie becomes locked and impossible to be open (not re-usable). However, when the tail of the cable tie is inserted into the aperture located on the opposite side of the block head, the said cable tie becomes locked but re-usable by using a lever arm mechanism to release the elongate strap from the block head and open the cable tie.
