Product Introduction

The Screw Pump Cable Tie is an essential component designed to secure and organize cables, hoses, and wiring systems within screw pump assemblies. These cable ties play a vital role in maintaining the safety, reliability, and performance of pumping systems in industrial, chemical, and wastewater treatment applications.

Engineered with high-strength nylon, stainless steel, or heat-resistant polymer materials, the Screw Pump Cable Tie ensures stability under harsh environments such as high temperature, chemical exposure, and vibration. By properly managing the wiring and tubing layout, it reduces operational risks, improves maintenance efficiency, and enhances the overall service life of screw pump systems.

In complex mechanical systems like Progressive cavity pumps or single screw pumps, numerous electrical and control cables are used for monitoring sensors, motor drives, and automation components. Unsecured cables can lead to tangling, wear, or even electrical faults. The Screw Pump Cable Tie provides an effective fastening solution, keeping cables neatly arranged and preventing accidental damage caused by mechanical vibration or friction.

The product complies with international safety and environmental standards (such as RoHS, REACH, and UL94V-2), ensuring long-term reliability in various industrial environments.
