<font face="Comic Sans MS"><font size="2"><font color="navy">I think you might be looking for "mounted" cable ties.


For buying online I like [url="http://www.uline.com/"]Uline,[/url]
they have [url="http://www.uline.com/BL_3213/?searchedkeywords=mounted%2520cable%2520ties"]Mounted Cable Ties[/url]
in three sizes.

Thank You...

I'd tried three hardware stores but I did not find them, nor did I know the correct term. Cool a Mounted Cable Tie.

PC Connection has the mounted cable ties online, I bet you could find them at an electrical supply house or computer store locally...

Ray,

I know this is not what you had asked for, but it is the #1 item I use for marine wire/cable management in place of the ties you are asking about, you have to supply the zip tie separate. There are a few advantages, they are reusable (just cut your old zip tie off and put on a new one). It takes up a little less space as the wire bundle runs over the top of, not next to the screw. In areas where you can't use a screw these can be epoxied to fiberglass.

Here are a few popular suppliers (though in the Navy we use a generic brand not Ancor)

I saw these at Lowes Yesterday. Made me think of this post. I was surprised by how cheap they were.
