Hi,

I'm looking for a specific plastic tie wrap, looks like a christmas tree with a slit at the one end (so you can feed it through then twist it in place. Something like this: If someone knows where I can get these I would REALLY appreciate it as I can't find them anywhere.

It is possible to reuse if you insert a straight pin to release the catch that engages the serration.

Uh, wrong tool for the job. The soft plastic 'christmas tree' style ones stretch over time, and fail under stress. Not really designed for long-term use, as fits with primary application on garbage bags. We bought them at work to use in supply room, coiling up and sorting out spare cables for reuse. They DO sell reusable wire ties, where the locking block slides back and releases the shaft, and multiple other styles. At work, in the constantly-reconfigured LAN wiring closets, we use velcro wire wraps. There is a whole other world of fastener products out there other than what you see in the civilian stores. Your local industrial supply has or can get them, or doubtless they are available online from several sources.

GoogleGoogleGoogle.....

'reusable cable ties' comes up with 27000 hits......

We use Velcro. Comes in rolls. Cut it to any length.
No limit to its use.
