I currently use the normal releasable cable tie but hard to come across and wondered if these were any use.

The listing states they are reuseable, which is a bit misleading...as the only bit that can be reused is the bit which you cut off after securing something with them.

I remember these from Dragon's Den a few years ago. Some of the Dragon's couldn't see their appeal and thought why bother when you've got cable ties but they have found a market with industrial and agricultural uses. Not sure of their appeal in the entertainment industry, though. They are meant as a permanent fastening rather than a temporary measure.

Then again, if you are going to pre-wire a T-bar or something like that then I suppose they could be useful. Cable ties are much cheaper, though.
