Why Choose the Partex MDT360H Metal Detectable Cable Ties?
The Partex MDT360H is a blue metal detectable, non-releasable cable tie designed for secure cable bundling and fastening in industrial environments where foreign-object contamination control is important. Measuring 360 mm long × 7.5 mm wide, these cable ties combine a wide fastening strap with metal detectable functionality, making them a practical option for cable management in food production, pharmaceutical manufacturing and other controlled processing environments.
As part of the Partex cable management range, the MDT360H is intended to support facilities that use metal detection systems as part of their contamination prevention procedures. Its blue colour helps the cable tie stand out visually against many production materials, while its metal detectable construction is designed to make fragments more readily identifiable by suitable detection equipment than conventional non-detectable cable ties.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 cable ties, the Partex MDT360H is suitable for maintenance engineers, production technicians, electrical installers and equipment manufacturers. The 360 mm length provides reach for compatible cable bundles, while the 7.5 mm width offers a broad fastening profile for industrial wiring and equipment organisation.
Key Advantages
- Metal detectable construction supports foreign-object detection procedures in suitable industrial processing environments.
- Blue colour provides high visual contrast against many food products, production materials and equipment surfaces.
- Non-releasable locking design provides a fastening intended to remain secured after installation.
- 360 mm length offers additional reach for compatible cable bundles and wiring assemblies.

The Partex MDT360H is designed for applications where conventional cable ties may not provide the level of detectability required by a facility's contamination control procedures. Metal detectable cable ties incorporate detectable material intended to be recognised by compatible metal detection systems. This can help facilities identify certain cable tie fragments during production monitoring, subject to the capabilities and settings of the detection equipment.
The blue finish provides an additional visual identification benefit. Blue components can be easier to distinguish against many food products and processing materials, potentially assisting with visual inspection and housekeeping procedures. However, colour alone does not guarantee that a cable tie or fragment will be noticed, and metal detectability does not guarantee detection of every fragment. Detection performance depends on factors including fragment size, orientation, detector sensitivity and the surrounding product or material.
When installing the MDT360H, position the tie around the compatible cable bundle and tighten it sufficiently to secure the wiring without damaging cable insulation. The non-releasable locking mechanism means that removal will generally require cutting and replacing the tie. Before use, verify the product's material, tensile strength, temperature limits, chemical resistance and any required food-contact or industry-specific approvals against the current Partex technical documentation. Facilities should also validate detectability under their own operating conditions.
Typical Applications
- Food processing machinery cable bundling and organisation.
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment wiring.
- Packaging machinery and automated production lines.
- Industrial facilities with metal detection procedures.
- Electrical control panels associated with processing equipment.
- Maintenance and repair of contamination-sensitive production machinery.
- Securing compatible wiring harnesses and equipment cables.
- Industrial manufacturing environments requiring visually distinctive cable management components.
