Overview

The ABB Deltec Modular Stackable Cable Spacer (SKU: TCP5255) is a one-piece polypropylene solution engineered for efficient cable management in industrial and commercial environments. Constructed from durable black polypropylene, this spacer withstands temperatures up to 85°C (185°F) and resists ultraviolet (UV) degradation and weathering, ensuring long-term reliability in outdoor or harsh conditions. The spacer features a 12.7mm (0.50 inch) height and is designed for modular stacking, allowing incremental height adjustments in 12.7mm (0.50 inch) increments for flexible cable routing. Its snap-together design eliminates the need for separate spacers and mounting hardware, reducing inventory costs and installation time. Compatible with Dura-Ty™ and SACS50-T100 cable ties, the TCP5255 is ideal for parallel or perpendicular cable applications, including coax and telephone cables. The spacer attaches to 1/4" (6.4mm) or 5/8" (7.9mm) support strands, forming expansion loops to keep cables clear of pole hardware. Hand-install only, the TCP5255 is a cost-effective, reusable solution for organized wire routing in electrical infrastructure, fiber optic systems, and grounding applications. This black polypropylene spacer is specifically designed for modular stacking, enabling users to achieve precise cable elevation. Its robust construction ensures it can handle demanding environmental factors, including exposure to the elements and prolonged sunlight. The 12.7mm (0.50 inch) height of each individual spacer contributes to the overall flexibility of cable management systems. The inherent weather and ultraviolet resistance of the material further enhances its suitability for outdoor installations. The modular nature of the TCP5255 allows for easy customization of cable height, accommodating various installation requirements.

75-ft Black hook and loop fastener Cable Ties - 1 Piece hook and loop fastener Cable Ties offer a unique back-to-back fastening system: a self-gripping, double-sided strap that is easy to use and cost effective. They feature a molded high performance polyethylene hook fastener laminated on to a non-woven polyester loop. The low peel strength allows for easy entry or removal by the user yet the average shear strength is 3.0 psi, which increases substantially with each circular rotation. Will not over-cinch delicate cable and fiber optics. For use with cord and cable management, wire harnesses, inventory control, fibre optics, packaging, in-plant maintenance, etc. Allow for a minimum 2" overlap when installing.
