I used plastic cable ties to attach the fuel-pump wires and nylon sheathing to the fuel line. This was part of routing the heater wiring through the factory floor opening.

Why I bought it
The fuel-pump wiring needed a route through the existing floor opening and along the fuel line. Black plastic ties were included in the materials for that session.
This was separate from the metal ties I later used around the roof conduit. The plastic ties here belonged to the smaller wire and sheathing arrangement beneath the van.
How I used it in my camper van
I cut and routed the fuel-pump wires through the factory gasket and floor opening, then reconnected them with two lever connectors. I used plastic zip ties to attach the wires and nylon sheathing to the fuel line.
The underside photograph records the physical route after that work. Inside the van, the connector pair and entry point were part of the next stage of organizing the heater’s wiring.

My review
The ties had a simple attachment role within a job that also needed routing, connections and an entry through the floor. Each of those parts had its own supplies.
The underside and inside photographs are useful together because they show both ends of the route. The ties belong to the physical arrangement of the wires and sheathing along the line.
Routing, reconnecting and attaching the wire bundle were three separate parts of this session.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The Gardner Bender option is another eight-inch nylon tie with a locking head. VELCRO ONE-WRAP uses a reusable hook-and-loop closure instead of a toothed strap. Those are different bundling methods: a locking loop and a strap that opens again.
Gardner Bender Eight-Inch Cable Ties
These black nylon cable ties use a locking head to close the strap into a loop. Their eight-inch length provides another tie format for bundling small items.
These reusable straps wrap around a bundle and fasten with a hook-and-loop surface. Their releasable closure provides a different bundling method from a toothed nylon tie.
