Versatile Reusable Zip-Ties

The MUTDUT MultiCinch Has More Uses Than a Regular Zip-Tie

— May 12, 2017 — Art & Design
California Kickstarter company MUTDUT have released a reusable zip-tie that is said to be more useful than duct tape.

The MUTDUT 'MultiCinch' is made of a custom thermoplastic that has just enough give but will never break. The MultiCinch is waterproof, UV-resistant and dishwasher-safe. Due to its flexibility, the MultiCinch reusable zip-tie has endless uses from keeping cords neat and tidy to curling into a cell phone holder. The large reusable zip-tie is even strong enough to suspend a bicycle from the ceiling of a garage to save space.

It also comes in three sizes for even more versatility. "They're symmetrical and reversible, secure and reusable. Every part works as both plug and socket so there's no male, no female, no wrong way to use them."

At $7 for a three pack, this reusable zip-tie is more environmentally friendly and efficient than traditional zip-ties.
