About Lock Right
Lock Right is the company behind GripLockTies, a line of rubber-lined, releasable zip ties built to solve problems that ordinary nylon straps create. Standard zip ties are single-use, can bite into wire insulation, and tend to creep or rattle under vibration. Lock Right's design addresses each of those issues by pairing a UV-resistant nylon strap with a soft rubber lining and a release tab. The result is a tie that grips, cushions, and can be reused.
Built for High-Vibration Work
GripLockTies were originally designed for high-vibration wire-securing jobs such as those found in aviation and racing. The rubber lining acts as a spring-like cushion, helping the strap hold firm while protecting the wires, hoses, or painted surfaces it is wrapped around. That makes the ties a practical fit for engine bays, motorcycles, RVs, electrical cabinets, and outdoor lawn and garden projects. Lock Right describes the ties as heat-stabilized up to 210°F, and the 12-inch size is rated for a working load of up to 70 pounds.
Cable Ties from Lock Right
Every product in the Lock Right lineup falls into one category: Lock Right cable ties. If you are browsing the wider cable tie category, what sets this brand apart is the releasable mechanism. Lift the small tab and the strap can be loosened, repositioned, or removed entirely, which cuts down on waste when you are routing and re-routing wiring during a build or repair.
The range is offered in several lengths and color combinations:
- 5-inch ties for tight wire bundles and small harnesses
- 8-inch ties for general-purpose bundling and hose management
- 12-inch ties for larger loops, bigger hoses, and heavier-duty securing
The straps are black nylon, while the rubber lining comes in blue, red, or orange. The colored lining is more than cosmetic: it makes it easy to color-code circuits, fluid lines, or different zones of a project at a glance.
Choosing the Right Size and Pack
When shopping, match the tie length to the bundle diameter with some room to spare, since the rubber lining adds a little thickness. Smaller packs suit a single project, while larger counts make sense for shops and frequent tinkerers who reuse ties across jobs. Because these ties are releasable, a modest supply can go a long way compared with disposable straps.
Lock Right products are marketed as made in the USA, and the GripLockTies line is protected by patented design features. For anyone tired of cut insulation, scratched paint, or ties that loosen when the engine runs, Lock Right offers a more thoughtful take on a humble shop staple.
