Hi,



I'm looking for a specific plastic tie wrap, looks like a christmas tree with a slit at the one end (so you can feed it through then twist it in place. Something like this: If someone knows where I can get these I would REALLY appreciate it as I can't find them anywhere.

Some garbage bags put them in with the packages. Check with Hefty and some of the companies?

I remember getting some at a garden center as plant ties and some at a local hardware / lumber yard to tie up wire cloth. TB

(snip) We've bought big rolls of them at work, that look just like the ones that come with hefty bags.

If you are in a town of any size, local packaging or industrial supply will have them, or can get them. If none of those around, Google for 'shipping and packaging materials'. There are several houses out there that sell online, but be aware there may be a minimum order, since they don't really want to deal in retail quantities. What is the application? If these need to be reused multiple times, velcro cable ties may work better. The yellow plastic ones aren't that strong, and they aren't weather-rated. They are also suprisingly short.

McMaster Carr is the place for all sorts of odd and ends they have all kinds of industrial stuff

I got a bag of them from the local (very small) Radio Shack. They were 'wire ties' but it's the same thing.
