Description
- TENSION AND TRIM IN ONE SQUEEZE — NO MANUAL CUTTING REQUIRED: The TY6's breakaway spring mechanism automatically releases the lower handle the instant your preset tension is achieved, engaging the blade to flush-cut the excess tie tail in the same motion. No second step. No separate snips. No fumbling on the collar while balancing flex duct overhead — just tension, cut, and move to the next one.
- ADJUSTABLE TENSION KNOB SETS CONSISTENT PULL EVERY TIME: The finger-operated adjustment knob lets you dial in the exact tension needed to secure flex duct to a take-off collar without over-tightening and crushing the duct lining. Set it once per job and every tie gets the same consistent pull, protecting your installation and eliminating callbacks from collapsed flex or failed connections.
- WORKS ON 125 LB AND 175 LB NYLON TIES: The TY6 handles both standard 175 lb tensile strength ties and thinner 125 lb ties without adjustment — making it the only tie tool you need for flex duct collars, bundle securing, and equipment tie-downs up to 15 inches in diameter. For best results on fiberglass flex duct, pair with Malco's adjustable nylon ties.
- CONTOURED VINYL CUSHION GRIPS WITH HAND STOPS FOR ALL-DAY USE: The TY6's smooth lever action, contoured handle profile, and vinyl cushion grips with built-in hand stops minimize hand and arm fatigue on large installs. At 8-1/2 inches long and 15 oz., it balances comfortably in hand without the bulk of larger tensioning tools.
- HARDENED STEEL BODY WITH WEATHER-RESISTANT NICKEL CHROME FINISH: Built for continuous on-the-job use, the TY6's hardened steel stampings and long-wearing internal parts are finished in a corrosion-resistant nickel chrome coating that holds up in attics, crawlspaces, and outdoor mechanical rooms. Designed and made for professional HVAC installers.
For continuous use on-the-job. The TY6 Tensioning Tool is designed for a the heavy user of nylon ties. An adjustment knob allows installer to set desired tension for securing flex duct to a take-off collar. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Adjust knob only with fingers. When the preset tension is achieved, a breakaway spring mechanism releases the tool's lower handle, causing the blade to engage and automatically flush cut off the excess tail of the nylon tie. No extra operation for manual trimming is required. Nylon tie installation is fast and easy with the TY6. Works on all 175 pound tensile strength ties.
