Grip Lock Ties Brings You Oshkosh 2017!!!

Staying Power... Grip Lock Ties Brings You Oshkosh 2017!

Utah based EAA Members invented GripLockTies for their Air Racers to solve the problems of ordinary zip ties that are either too tight and break or too loose and move around. 

GripLockTies Innovative Rubber Lined Zip Ties solve the problems of damaged hoses and wires and cuts into structure. Everyone in aviation knows (or should know) not to put ordinary zip ties on Engine Mounts.  

Old-style slip ties will loosen and cut the wires or worse, cut through the paint and structure and cause damage and at worst engine mount failure.  

But with Rubber-Lined GripLockTies the rubber lining pads the wires and structure and holds it stable under vibration and eliminates the damage of old slip ties saving time, weight and money over Adel Clamps. 

GripLockTies were developed for aviation with UV protection, higher heat rating and a super strong positive latch and can be repositioned during construction and then clipped flush.  

Available in Red, Blue, White and Orange.
