7 .1 Recommended tension force

The following formula can be used as a guideline for the recommended tension force on the
application tool.
Minimum tensile strength
2
The minimum tensile strength is the force that the cable tie can withstand before it deforms or
tears (see cable tie technical specifications).

The tension forces specified are only general reference values. Due to the diversity of possible
influences during processing and use, we recommend to check the tension cut off forces with a
conventional force meter (frequency of the data recording should be at least 10 kHz).

7 .4 Fine adjustment of the pulling force using the CALTOOL

Fine or readjustment is possible using the accessory part CALTOOL.
The factory setting (Setting 0-8) is changed (see table in "Setting the tension force via the
adjustment dial").
