Overview

The Panduit HTMT (SKU: HTMT) is a specialized installation tool engineered for efficient application of various Panduit stainless steel cross-section ties. This tool is designed to work with standard, light-heavy, and heavy cross-section MLT type ties, as well as standard and heavy MLTFC type coated ties. It is also compatible with heavy MLTC, MLT-LPAL, and MLTD ties. Furthermore, the HTMT facilitates the use of custom length banding cross sections, including standard and heavy MB type, and heavy MBC type banding. This tool is crucial for ensuring proper tensioning and secure fastening of stainless steel ties, which are vital in environments requiring high tensile strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. Stainless steel ties are commonly employed in harsh industrial settings, marine applications, and areas with extreme temperatures or chemical exposure. The HTMT streamlines the installation process, contributing to increased productivity and a more reliable final assembly. Key compatibility includes: * **MLT Series:** Standard, Light-Heavy, Heavy * **MLTFC Series:** Standard, Heavy * **MLTC, MLT-LPAL, MLTD Series:** Heavy * **MB Series:** Standard, Heavy (custom length banding) * **MBC Series:** Heavy (custom length banding) The HTMT is part of Panduit's comprehensive offering of cable tie tools designed for speed, reliability, and installer safety. While specific operational details like tensioning force or automatic cut-off capabilities are not detailed for the HTMT itself in the provided catalog excerpts, its role is to facilitate the secure installation of the aforementioned tie types. The tool's design focuses on enabling efficient side entry for immediate tie and tool positioning, speeding up the installation workflow. Its multi-position rear handle offers flexibility for both one-handed and two-handed operation, adapting to various installation scenarios. The HTMT is manufactured in the USA, ensuring quality and adherence to manufacturing standards. This tool is an essential component for any application utilizing Panduit's robust stainless steel cable tie solutions.

How to Use the Pan-Steel Tie Tensioning Tool

Step-by-step guide for effectively using the Pan-Steel Tie Tensioning Tool to secure materials with stainless steel ties.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Pan-Steel Tie Tensioning Tool

Supplies needed:

MLT stainless steel ties

  1. Position the tie

    Place the MLT stainless steel tie around the material to be fastened.

  2. Tighten the tie

    Pull the tip through the locking head and hand tighten firmly to the material.

  3. Insert the tie into the tool

    Slide the edge of the tip of the tie into the slot located at the end of the HTMT tool shaft.

  4. Tension the tie

    Rotate the tool so that the tie tip goes down toward and under the remaining excess tie. Continue to turn the tie into a coil until you have reached the desired amount of tension.

  5. Remove the tool

    While releasing pressure from the coil, slide the tool out of the center of the coil.

  6. Cut off excess tie (optional)

    The coil may be cut off after tensioning if a lower profile is necessary. However, be cautious as a sharp edge will remain after cut-off.
