Tidy Cables, No More Snips: The Tradie's Guide to Hook And Loop

For years, the humble plastic cable tie was the go-to for bundling cables. But they're single-use, wasteful, and if you pull them too tight, they can crush and damage sensitive data cables. The smarter, safer, and more flexible solution is professional Hook and Loop—including the original and most trusted VELCRO® Brand straps.

At SCHNAP, we stock a complete range of hook and loop solutions designed to help tradies and installers keep cables, equipment, and materials tidy, secure, and easy to manage.

Why Pros are Choosing Hook And Loop

Aussie installers are making the switch from plastic ties for a few simple reasons:

• It’s Reusable & Adjustable: Need to add another cable to the bundle or make a change? Just unwrap the strap and re-wrap it. There's no waste and no need to snip off old ties and start again.
• It’s Safe for Data Cables: This is the big one. You can't over-tighten a hook and loop strap. This protects delicate Cat6 and fibre optic cables from being pinched or crushed, which can seriously degrade signal performance.
• It’s Incredibly Versatile: The uses are endless. From managing cables in a comms rack to securing gear in the back of the ute, it's one of the handiest things you can have in your tool bag.

The Right Hook and Loop for Any Job

We stock a huge range of formats to suit any application.

• Reusable Straps & Ties: The classic choice and a must-have for any data cabler or AV installer. Perfect for bundling patch cords in a data cabinet, tidying up cables behind a TV, or managing extension leads on site.
• Adhesive-Backed Tapes: With a powerful, sticky adhesive on the back, our hook and loop tape is perfect for securing power bricks under a desk, mounting lightweight devices to a wall, or running cables neatly along a surface.
• Pre-Cut Dots: These small, sticky-backed dots are incredibly handy for quick fixes, mounting remote controls, or organising small tools and components in your workshop.
