Overview

The Panduit MLT6DSH-Q316 self-locking cable cleat is engineered for high-performance cable management in industrial and utility applications where short-circuit resilience and installation efficiency are critical. This AISI 316 stainless steel cleat features a patented self-locking head that secures at any point along the band, eliminating the need for pre-measured cuts and reducing installation time by up to 40%. The dual-pass banding design passes through the head twice, doubling mechanical strength and ensuring reliable performance under extreme short-circuit conditions up to 75.1kA peak fault current, certified to IEC61914:2015. Designed for compatibility with quad, trefoil, and multicore cable configurations, the MLT6DSH-Q316 accommodates bundle diameters up to 152mm (6.0 inches) with a minimum loop tensile strength of 5340N (1200 lbf). The UV-resistant, halogen-free polyester coating provides corrosion resistance in harsh environments, while the smooth, rounded edges enhance worker safety during installation and maintenance. Available in six color options for visual identification, this cleat supports color-coding initiatives in complex cable management systems. Ideal for power distribution, renewable energy, and industrial facilities, the MLT6DSH-Q316 integrates seamlessly with Panduit’s MLT series ties and straps, including GS4MT-E, PBTMT, PPTMT, ST2MT, and HTMT. The cleat’s heavy-duty construction ensures long-term reliability in high-vibration and temperature-extreme environments, making it a cost-effective solution for critical infrastructure projects where downtime is unacceptable.

How to Install the MLT Locking Strap Cable Cleat

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the MLT Locking Strap Cable Cleat, ensuring secure cable management on ladder rung systems.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Scissors or shears, PBTMT Installation Tool

Supplies needed:

Cushion sleeve, MLT Strap Cleat, Mounting screws, Retainer clips, Bolts, Nuts

  1. Prepare the cushion sleeve

    Cut the cushion sleeve to a suitable length to wrap around the perimeter of the cables and bracket. Ensure there is some overlap when fully wrapped.

  2. Mount the bracket

    Align and insert the channel nut through the bottom opening of the ladder rung. Position the bracket assembly perpendicular to the ladder rung and thread the channel nut until resistance is felt. Torque the bolt to a recommended 75 lbs∙in [8.5 N∙m].

  3. Wrap the cushion sleeve

    Wrap the cushion sleeve around the cables and bracket. While keeping the cushion sleeve in position, encircle the cable bundle with the MLT Strap Cleat.

  4. Insert the strap cleat

    Insert the tail of the MLT Strap Cleat into the cleat head, positioning the head near the top of the cable bundle. Ensure the tail end is pointing toward you and pull the tail until taut.

  5. Double loop the strap

    Repeat the previous step, looping the tail additionally to create a double loop. Ensure the MLT Strap Cleats are double looped for proper functionality.

  6. Tension the strap

    Set the PBTMT tool tension to match the MLT Strap Cleat being used. Feed the MLT Strap Cleat’s tail into the nose and mandrel slots of the tool.

  7. Activate the PBTMT tool

    Press and hold the trigger on the PBTMT tool until it automatically tensions the MLT Strap Cleat and cuts off the excess tail, leaving a flush finish.
