not sure how it works? here's a short demo to help
on February 8, 2015
In my video review, I show exactly how one would use these cable ties. Hopefully, it helps you after you see how it can turn a mess into a very clean, nice-looking wrapped cable. I was able to wrap everything, thick to thin, large to small, anything that needed to tie or wrap, these cables are durable, strong and look great. Highly recommended. If this video was helpful,[...]. Happy shopping!There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Versatile, Durable, Removable, Reusable & Affordable -- We all have cords...these Velcro Cord Ties make managing them easier

This is a great product to have. Unless you have sworn off all electricity and telecommunications, you most likely have to deal with cords/cables. Nothing is more annoying than when they are messy, and this can in some cases present a tripping hazard. Rubber bands, wire ties, traditional zip ties, strong, and tape can all be used for this purpose, but they all have their downsides (some of which are significant.)
Here, we have a cord/cable tie that uses a removable & reusable hook-and-loop fabric fastener produced by the Velcro brand, a name synonymous with hook-and-loop fasteners. Vastly different from the other options listed above, it is easy to apply, easy to remove, does not cause damage to cords/cables, does not rapidly degrade with age, can easily be cut (or combined) to change the size for the User's needs, and works well even when being used frequently.
You have likely seen similar products at hardware stores, but generally the quantity per-package is low, and the price high. That limits practicality if you have a lot of cords. But here you can get 100 Velcro ties for about 6 bucks. Made with both economy & performance in mind, these wraps are lighter duty than some other Velcro products offered, and are only available in a black color. They measure 8 inches long and 1/2 inch wide, so they work well with most standard-sized cords (for larger cords, just connect two or more through the loops to form a single giant cord tie.) Each individual tie has a hole punched into one end, which allows the user to loop & tighten the tie to a cord/device so that the tie does not fall off of the cord when completely unstrapped/opened up.
What I wanted was a versatile, durable, removable, reusable, and affordable cord/cable tie...these fit those needs perfectly. They are well made, reasonably strong, and the Velcro fastener used is very good quality considering the price. While these are lighter duty than most of the retail packages of Velcro Cord Ties are, these work perfectly for my general home-use needs and they cost about 1/10th the price.
So I highly recommend these Velcro cord/cable ties!

These cable ties are terrific for any cable you need to bunch up and organize. I am using them
principally on sound equipment like 18-20 ft guitar cables, 15-foot speaker cables and the
like. When I get around to it I will also organize my stereo cables and extension cords as well.
You will receive 100 of them stuck to each other in a single row; one on top of the other. They
come in a resealable plastic bag with the a plain white title card inserted in the bag that says,
"8" niversal Reusable Velcro Strip". Yes, the word, 'Universal', is missing the 'U'. Needless to
say these are made in China and quality control is poor in the editing department. This is not
about translation, but simply poor quality control in the marketing department. The 'misspelling'
does not impugn the quality of the product in any way. (See photos)
I have been using these cable ties for 2 weeks. I almost always recoil my guitar cables when done
playing and use one cable tie to bind the 18-20 foot cables. I play almost daily and so I have been
wrapping and unwrapping these ties without any problems or apparent wear-down.
For extension cords, depending upon the length and thickness, you may need a longer cable tie to
successfully secure the cord. I would also recommend using two cable ties of this size to ensure
a good secure fit for extension cords. From my wanderings on Amazon, as I shopped for cable ties,
I found there are wider and longer Velcro ties available.
Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and the price was terrific for the amount and quality
of the product. So I gave them 5 stars and recommend them highly. This is not a criticism but the
ties I purchased did not have the yellow and blue package with a photo on the front. The only
difference I perceive is that the ties are in a row instead of a roll and the packaging itself.
NOTE: make sure you actually attach the tie to each cable by slipping the tapered end through the
slot on the opposite end and THEN wrapping the tie around your cord. That way you will not lose
the tie and it will always be available to you. Now go out and organize to your heart's content.
ADDENDUM October 2015: Still using these cable ties and the same one that have been installed
on my guitar cables are still useful and holding up just fine. I still recommend them.

I absolutely love these ties. I have used many different types of ties before and nothing comes close to these. They are so thin yet strong enough to hold your cables and cords together neatly. I use them on headphones and charging cords and even computer cables. They have a little loop on one side if you want to attach it to the cable you're tying up. I have cut some of them to use for my headphone wires which require much less of the 8 inch length. I wasn't sure I needed 100, but for $5, I'll find things to tie up. After using the first one out of the package, I immediately went to my bin of wires and cords and tied up everything. Now, it is so neat and easy to find thing in there.
The picture I attached is just to show the strength of these ties, not how I am actually using them.
I have given away a bunch of these to friends just so they can see how great of a product this is. You don't need to look further, if you need something to keep things untangled or bundled, these are what you should get!

These things are great. As an avid electronics fan and computer guy my entertainment areas are always a mess with wires. Ive tried regular zip ties and cheaper forms of velcro ties but these ones are so much better than any alternative I have found. I use these to secure wires into bundles, to tie up the plastic wire guides , to wrap up cords for storage.... you name it! If its something you need to tie up and untie later, this is the thing! I recently redid the wiring for my entertainment center and my computer desk. Here are a couple pictures of the job!

VELCRO Brand One Wrap Thin Ties, Black, 8 x 1/2-Inch, 100 Count (91140)
Today we're looking at the "VELCRO Brand One Wrap Thin Ties, Black, 8 x 1/2-Inch, 100 Count (91140)" from VELCRO Brand.
--------------
Introduction:
--------------
When I find a product that does the job well, is easy to use and economical; I STICK WITH IT. Rarely does a product successfully combine all three of the above aspects, but this one CERTAINLY DOES.
With four computers, three monitors, three routers and three switches (not to mention home theater audio/video gear), you can imagine the amount of cable clutter I have to deal with. There are several possible solutions, and I have used them in varying combinations, but these VELCRO Cable Ties form the BACKBONE for my cable management regimen.
They are TRULY INDISPENSIBLE and I simply count NOT do without them!

Manufacturer's Claims:
-----------------------

* Trusted & used in data & network centers across the globe. Wraps onto itself for secure hold
>>>
>>> The first part I cannot vouch for, but it seems quite reasonable

Pros:

Cons:
------

Despite these two minuscule nits, I really CANNOT see any way the product could be improved.

These are SO handy and are an absolute steal at the add-on price! These were so affordable, and you get so many ties, that I ran out of things to put them on, so I'm saving them for later use. I love that I have extras, and that these are re-usable and very easy to remove or adjust. I was worried they might be too thick to hold thin cords together, but these are very slim and perfect for both slim and thick cords actually, and are not wide like some other brands I saw when I was looking around. I also own a few other types of "cord-keepers" that all seem to have a wire in the middle, which is fine for its first use, but I found it hard to re-shape the wire back to the original way it came, so they end up having kinks in it, and trying to use them on a different bundle of wires (aka re-using them) is hard because the "kinks" prevent the tie from wrapping snuggly around the wires, thus defeating the whole purpose of a reusable tie. These velcro ties are not only easier to re-use, but were MUCH cheaper and have about 5 times the amount of ties versus my other cord keepers. If you are looking for any type of wire keeper, or have any use for these at all, i highly recommend buying these at the add-on price because they are amazing and versatile and the value for the price simply cannot be beat. Even compared with no-name brand, these authentic Velcro Brand ties are a better price (and most likely better quality).
The only small negative I found is with the packaging/shape of the product, with them all being on a continuous loop- it's kind of like scotch tape refills, only there is no tape dispenser to place them in to make it easier to keep the middle "ring/empty hole" intact, so it can sort of lose its perfectly round roll-like shape as you take each tie from the ring (if this makes sense). It's probably just me and how I remove each tie from the roll that messes it up, but even so, it's not a big deal and I'm able to reshape it easily. Just thought I would mention that one design element that maybe needs some improvement (or instructions for those of us less intuitive...).
Overall, I am extremely impressed with this product, and happily surprised with them, as I purchased them on a whim due to my other cord keepers being so frustrating. Highly recommend, and these are an extremely excellent value! (I paid for these myself and was in no way compensated or given a discount for this review; I just thought other shoppers should know how great these are and how amazing this price deal is!)

Honestly...as "Velcro" is the originator and preeminent brand name, I expected a much higher quality. The material these ties are made of is EXTREMELY thin!!! So thin in fact they are easily torn in half even when trying to separate them from their self-contained coil. Do they work? Yes, they do keep cables together. My concern is "for how long?" The hook and loop is also very thin and non-aggressive. If I had to rate them for durability, it would be no more than "Light Duty" at best. Prior to purchasing these, I was buying "dollar store" knock-offs, which (as it turns out) are far superior in every sense of the word to these. Thank goodness they are so very low cost, which (in the end) should have told me not to set my expectations so high.
UPDATE
I've been using these steadily now for over a month. Am almost through the first spool of 25. My first reaction to their quality and durability may have been premature. Having wrapped and unwrapped many of them over and over, they still appear to be working fine. At this point I will raise my rating from 3 to 4 stars and change my classification from "Light Duty" to "Medium Duty."

exactly as described works well, comes with 100 individual velcro cable wraps perfect for tying up almost anything, i used mainly for computer cables and power, audio and video connections. I was also able to attach them to all my usb charging cables so they could be rolled back up and tied when not in use.

These things are super handy. If you're not too bothered with having the zip tie style insertion hole, you can just cut these things into smaller pieces and use them as tiny bindings for household items. I cut a few of them into thirds and wrapped my ear buds to keep them from tangling up in my pocket when I'm not wearing them, which has been super helpful. I also wrapped the cord on my electric kettle for storage when I'm not using it. I've basically just been wandering around and wrapping up all sorts of cords and cables around my place. Quite useful.
