Have you guys had any issue in getting stainless tie wraps to stay tight?
I don't use them much myself, but recently needed some, however, even though I use a tool which really makes them tight, the moment I cut or release it the tie wrap relaxes back such a lot that by the time the ball bearing locks it's not tight at all.
I have tried a couple of different ones and they all seem to do the same, before I try every single make out there, do you find one make better than the rest, or is that just it with stainless ties?
In this case I was using it on a large satellite dish - its on a mostly vertical run, around a tube, and basically once "tightened " the wraps just slide down!
