Customer Reviews for Nite Ize 18 in. Gear Tie in Black (2-Pack)

Bought these to thwart the animals from getting to my bird suet and the coating is chipping away

I got my first set at the Modern Marine Expo at Quantico several years ago. Since then I have used them to hold down four 25# weights that hold down my vendor tent at several different farmers markets. They work better than just about anything that I have tried before.

18 in. Gear Tie in Bright Orange (2-Pack) Perfect for wrapping up small extension cords or even small Christmas lights etc. This particular Gear Tie is not for heavy duty outdoor type extension cords, but this product also comes in both smaller and much larger heavy duty offerings for those bigger items. I liked them because so many of these type products are hard to wrap and unwrap, but the Gear Ties are a simple product that simply works. You just need to judge the weight and size of what you want to tie up and choose the correct length and strength Gear Tie for the job.

I bought 3 packs of 2x12" and 2 packs 2x6"from. Both the 12" and 6" worked great but it wasn't long before the wire broke about 1/2" from the end caps. This make these little less useful and they start becoming dangerous. The wire breaks and now it's just the rubber coating keeping it in place. The wire begins to breakthrough the rubber and it can be extremely sharp. That being said, don't use these for anything you need to have to secure tightly, anything that put much strain where you twisted. There is many uses for these but these will fail fast if they are used under much pressure. I used them to hang a roller up 25' a garden hoses and a couple drills. Which were only twisted when I tied them the first time. I made a loop that a hook could fit through. After that most of them broke at the loop a few broke st the twist and broke again after retwisting them. Just picking them up to use and putting them back on the hooks a few times a day for a week was enough for these to fail.

purchased this product many times. However they need to have more color choices especially blue/ navy blue in every size

These are wonderful ties which have multiple uses. I think they could have them in all the colors and it would be even better

Love these! They are perfect for so many things. They are so much easier to twist closed and twist open than just regular twist ties and they last forever.

I do video production work and we use a lot of power cables and audio cables. Nite Ize twist ties are perfect for helping me keep my gear organized.

great product, limited in use only by your imagination. i tend to use mine as extra bathroom hooks when traveling, or wherever a hook is needed, like maybe on the back of an airplane seat.

They work as advertised! A great way to bundle my cords.

Absolutely perfedt, did exactly what i needed them to.

Love these things!

These are basically an industial version of a bread bag twist tie. Very handy when you need a temporary attactment or to bind up a cord. I used to use zip ties but theh are only good for one use.

Simple, easy way to keep your cords tidy and untangled. I prefer the brightly colored Gear Ties for their easy visibility on cords that I travel with and which are wrapped and unwrapped frequently; the darker ties I use with cords that are pretty stationary and which I still want to be neat and unobtrusive.

Ordered 50 or so of differing lengths and diameters to test. My son got 50% of them for his photography equipment. My wife got 25% for her cable restraint and other uses, and I am loving them. I have an order to place for at least 200 more! As nearly always, Great job Nite Ize!!

Ties work great to secure our balcony furniture to the railings. We live on the Chesapeake Bay and never know when a strong wind will blow. Have had furniture blow off the balcony in the past.

I can't believe how useful Gear Ties are. I have started buying them in different lengths and keep finding new ways to put them to use. Great product!!

These are a great product and come in handy for so many different purposes

I have many of these ties of varying lengths and sizes. They tie things together quickly and they're easy to untie. They're handy for bundling, securing and hanging all kinds of things.

Great for tying large bundles

Easy to use, flexible and durable. Orange color makes it easy to find.
